Everything sells on there, when they lowball you all the time.
you have to remember, the a___ end fell out of the Second hand Car Market when they started to import the Korean Cars,
and most of the cheap cars are s____ heaps,
and people don't care for them, and some people just a want s___ box to run around in,
so they buy it cheap as, get a dodgy Roadworthy, have an accident, and claim on insurance,
or
they drive a cheap car around, and risky other people lives, and don't care about other people property,
ie: open the doors on other peoples cars that they take pride in.

Just the other day, I went to the supermarket after I washed and polished my VY,
Came out and notice a door dent in the passengers door just under the mirror,
I know is wasn't there before shopping, because I had washed it, waxed it, and also Buffed it with a microfiber buffing pad,
So I know every little scratch, [paint] patch and dent on it.
Being it was the end of school holidays,
so probably some little s___t head kid flung his door open, and rushed to get out, and/or in their car.
I because there wasn't a car to bee seen next to mine,
so they either probably just called in to get something quick, or they moved their car after the incident.

There's a moral to that story........................don't take a "good car" to the supermarket, take a s____heap.

But really some of the ridiculous prices on CS are truly to be laughed at. Here are just 3 and as such let the membership be the judge I guess.

Michael, Chad, and Gordon will be getting excited by all the extra views they’re getting for their ads in CarSales!

And the ridiculing they'll get as well ;);)


For "greenacc"

The VS SL/R 5000 was a car built in a very small limited run (120 of) as a tribute to the Torana version and some particular milestone of 20 years on. It's probably the biggest kept secret that's come out of a Holden Dealership and thus why there's bugger all info out there about it in the first instance.
