Buying a s2k

[.::F[L]Y::.]

Ok guys what about a 99 with 70K, two female owners, 25K?

silver....I know I know...buy the car not the colour...

not to come across as being sexist here but I would stay away from buying a car from a female. ALOT of females do not know how to drive the car properly and in hindsight you could end up buying a lemon. although the car would probably be serviced on time, I have seen how some females drive and it will put you off buying a car from one.

Best thing you could do is buy the car from an enthusiast, at least you know it has been well cared for, serviced on time (
5000kms) with all the best fluids/parts.

Furthermore, when it comes to a honda kms is pretty much just a number. It is a very reliable car so I dont see why you guys are worried about buying something with over 100,000kms? Likely hood that if something were to go wrong it would have and might have been rectified or replaced by the previous owners/owner

An exmaple is the white S that Perry use to own had lower kms than my previous S, during the first couple of weeks his shit Clutch cylinder shit itself. The point I'm bringing across here is that if things go wrong then its just wear and tear and shit happens. I have seen S2000's with 40,000kms with fckd CV's, blown diffs and the list goes on.

Also I'd rather buy one over 80,000kms then one at 70,000kms. 1k for a full service isn't cheap
My car was bought right after major service by old owner woo!!

you got a good point there.
when i was looking out to buy an s2000 i was checking this black one by this lady maybe about in her mid 20s.
plastic roof was all rusty and brown crap on it.
swirl marks like theres no 2mrrow
seats were all mangled
shoes and all this other crap in the car ruining the dashboard.
roof wasn't in good condition - off black colour.

Thanks guys. Very sound advice. @ fly: u were right. I didn't much care for the car after seeing it. Heaps of scratches on the inside (heels?) plus swirls on the paint. Rickety like the roof was shaking heaps and this was on bitumen.

Seeing another tomorrow. Guys having a baby so hopefully I'll be postin pics soon!!

lol was just looking at that too, 9k sounds bs to me

For $9k to buy a 2003 s2k???

2 years ago i was looking for a car on carsales.com
The seller was located in Darwin and she got divoced and in need to sell the car for cash.
The market value for the car is about $15k but she was selling it for $7k only.
i called her and she told me she is in uk staying with her mum and if i am willing to transfer $5k to her a/c first, she will arrange shipping to BNE and once i am happy, i can pay rest of the money to the transport company.

I am just wondering, is there no one to drive the car to a dealer and get a cash sale?
I forget it because it was too bullshit..

See this ad and remind me that once happened to me as well..

Oh wow, they have the same story LOL - reply from the seller

First I want to thank you for question about the car. The car is in perfect condition, with no scratches on it, no damage. It have all the papers and document and I am also the first owner. The price is $9,000 including the shipping to your address (only in Australia). The car is registered in Australia on my name and address but currently I am located in London, UK because I just finished the divorce with my husband and i have moved here to my parents home. The payment will be made through eBay and only after you will receive the car, I will receive the payment.

If you are interested in buying it please provide me your full name and address so I can initiate the deal through eBay.
I will wait your answer(if you are interested to buy) very soon

Thank you

People are just so creative today with scamming they all use the same line, laters guys need to collect my $10,000,000 from a widow now

Could someone ask for the address for inspection?
