information:
Ok for the person who came to test drive it
and exclaimed "Oh it's Silver - I don't want a Silver one!" Yes
it's Silver. Just so that there is no error here The title says
it's Silver, the description confirms this and guess what? When
you look at the photo's what do you see? Yup you got it. It is
indeed Silver. I am so glad that you came to view it, thanks for
brightening my day.

Hi,
Had 4 or 5 people asking what the
reserve is....I can't see a reserve price on it...can you? ...er
there isn't one. This is selling all the way. When the hammer
falls the highest bidder wins regardless.

Ok a round up of the latest
emails:
Sorry no swaps or trade-ins - I'm not a
garage! Not even a very nice garden shed painted red that I have
to dismantle myself, but thanks for the offer.
Being registered in 2000 makes it 6 years
old...I have never heard of a warranty this long so no it is not
under warranty.
Yes it is road legal - it's got an Mot!
Nope no tax
Yes it has a spare wheel. (Have I landed on a
different planet or something?)
No faults that I know of beyond what's in the
description however that's not a promise as I'm not a
mechanic and no there is no trial period. Come and try it make
your own mind up. If you win you buy.
No I don't think that I'm your long lost
husband George from Arbroath regardless of how sarcastic I
appear to be. It's called humour where I'm from. Personally I
think George did the right thing where ever he is.
The only finance is: you pay me I give you
the car, I'm not a bank!
I can't vouch for the other owners but no
accidents that I am aware of.
Yes you can look at it but no you can't take
it for a two day test drive. (I am sure April 1st has gone).
Ha ha very funny, no it's not made out of
chocolate. (Why me. I get on a train / bus and I get the nutter.
I even land the nutty taxi drivers who have just had Paris
Hilton in the cab 'honest' - yeh right.). Get a life and start
bidding.
How do you place a bid?...sorry if this is
too complicated for you I tend to think that driving might just
be a stretch too far.
No it's not left hand drive and your holiday
in france and the precise route sounds wonderful. send me a
postcard.
Arghhh

Ok I think I have become email
capital of ebay...a real magnet for wonderful questions:
All the seats are present and work,
I know that you have counted them in the pictures and can only
see 7. There is a very good reason for this...it's a 7 seater.
No it's never been raced ...sorry am I
missing something here, Auto Galaxy racing???? May be it'll be
be a new class at Imola this year - Auto F1 MPV trials.
There are no rips or tears to the head
lining
How the hell do I know if anyone has ever
eaten in it. I assume no four course meals but may be the odd
hippo pastie. Get a grip.
It's not an off road vehicle so I assume it
hasn't been used as such...this is an assumption mind you.
Oh I see, no dear, 7 seater includes the
driver.
I can't speak for previous owners, I'm not
aware of animals being in it. I suppose a previous owner could
have been a zoo keeper or a werewolf.
Keep up the emails as there is
nothing else I'd rather be doing with my time. have fun and
happy bidding. Is it a full moon tonight?
On 22-Apr-06 at 23:00:22
BST, seller added the following information:
Come on guys give it a rest it's
saturday night...get a life...
Why does it make any difference how many
people are watching this? Just bid.
You might have a large family and can't
afford very much, I am sorry on both accounts but I'm not a
charity.
Again no swaps, not even if your car is
really nice.
I'm glad that you are enjoying this Sheryl,
watch telly or something, haven't you got a boy friend or
something?... no better still bid - now!
On 23-Apr-06 at 12:00:55
BST, seller added the following information:
Sunday the day of rest...yeah
right...more gems from ebay land...
Thought this might interest you -
On one of my last auctions the guy who won it said that he had
hooked himself up to a blood pressure monitor in the closing
minutes of the bidding and his pressure went up to some
ridiculous level. I do wonder some people on the net at
times. Must get out more and interact with more carbon based
life forms (humanoid) springs to mind.
The reason Jerry, that the gear stick is a
funny shape is because it's an A U T O M
A T I C gear box. Which means that if you
do come to look you will find that there is no clutch. It's not
missing by the way they just don't need three pedals. Should be
just perfect for some as it's just like a pedal car - only two
pedals.
No it's not like new, Fran, it's 6 years old
and done 67,000 + miles with kids.
The seats are all fine, except the drivers
arm rest as mentioned before.
The exhaust appears to be fine. Whilst we are
on the subject of expelling waste gas....
Ok guys enough for today. I'm off
to do some things as I have a life. More tomorrow no doubt.
On 24-Apr-06 at 09:35:52
BST, seller added the following information:
Well stuff me sideways with a
large mexican cactus...a mail box crammed with 100's of
emails...thanks just what I want to be doing on my Birthday. Yes
Happy birthday to me, oh the joys of age...Ok another and
possibly the last round up as ebay won't let me add anything I
think within 24 hours of the end. The end is nigh.
Again no swaps. What is it with people, when
I say no swaps please don't take it as a challange. I have been
offfered a caravan, 12 cars, 1 lorry, to have my garden
landscaped, some rare fish, and I'm sorry but the very kind gent
(Donald) who offered me a weekend with his wife (and him it
would appear) I have a special message for you. The pictures you
sent me of your wife did not, in all honesty help. Some of them
looked more like a traffic accident than something that I might
remotely find alluring. I am sure that if you set up your own
website (assuming that it's not illegal) there will be plenty of
sad sacks (many from ebay land going by this experience) who
will indulge your (and your wifes) desires.
The tyres on the right hand side of the
vehicle are not flat. The reason the picture of the rear seats
is 'wonky' as you put it, has an awful lot to do with the fact
that I was trying to perch myself between the two front seats
facing backwards. There was a very interesting hand brake and
gear stick threatening to change my gender at that moment.
Additionally at the same time, fending off a small child wearing
an eye patch and a pirates bandana who was in the process of
trying to hack my left leg off with a large plastic knife; a
generous donation to family harmony from Santa.
The bar you can see in the back is to
handcuff the children to.(Joke - don't report me to the RSPCC
altough at times....) Its the parcel shelf and can be removed
easily.
Yes it has privacy glass in the back and your
eyes do not deceive you. It's really handy - people can't see
inside the back as you transport your clan arround. They should
make such glass complusory. Stops you getting a fright on the
motorway when you glance sideways into a car as see .... I do
wonder about some families.
Whimp. Lancaster is not too far to come to
look. Try this...bid, win collect. Simple really and it's a
lovely train ride. You think writing replies to a
zillion questions about this makes car buying fun????? Woha Lisa
I think you need to change your friends.
Yet again no it's not like new Gavin. Let me
put it this way...what would you be like if you have run over
67,000 miles in six years carrying a load of kids (or
werewolves)? Got a picture? Good well this car is a miracle. It
looks bloody good and far far better than you would after such
an event. However new implies without a mark, pristine, no
wear...no it's not like new. It's good and it doesn't appear to
have been abused like I sense you should be....may be I should
introduce you to Donald (see above).
For the 34 people who are interested in the
tyres. Firstly I am sure that your interest in rubber ...no I
can't be bothered, I'm sure Donald and his wife would like to
meet you (see above). The tyres are very good. They all look
reasonably new. On the subject of tires....
Thankfully not long to go now so
bid.
Have fun bid high. I'm off to blow
out far too many candles.

No I don't live in Lancaster??? I live in
Oxford.

Heaven help us...
Another is it left hand drive?
Don't you read or something? If not then I
guess this isn't going make a lot of sense then. In which case I
guess I can call you anything and you won't know! Nit.
Do you think that I have cunningly turned the
photo's around to make it just look like a right hand drive
vehicle just to fool you???? Give me strength. NO ITS A BLOODY
RIGHT HAND DRIVE MPV.
On 24-Apr-06 at 13:35:55
BST, seller added the following information:
Last few:
How fast does it go? Depends on what's in
front of you I suppose. It will sit very happily at 90 without
even stressing the engine. (On the autobhaan of course,
officer).
Yes I am a nice bloke really - not had many
complaints anyway, why do you ask Amy?
Yes it runs on petrol, I am tempted to say
I've tried gin and tonics but someone will actually think I mean
it. I now understand why car adverts have to include warnings
like 'Does not include people and scenery' in them. How do such
people get by in life? Do they buy a ticket for the train and
think they have a share in the rolling stock??
Yes I like it (The car that is). What sort of
question was that Ruth??
It's very stable in cornering. In
fact I wish most people were as stable as this MPV. It sits on
the road really really well. It really is just like a big car.
It is great to drive.
Yes Bob the cup holders work.
On 24-Apr-06 at 13:38:39
BST, seller added the following information:
No Bob the cup holders are not broken or
damaged in any way. As I said they work.
On 24-Apr-06 at 13:41:05
BST, seller added the following information:
Well Bob I just suppose that depends on how
big your cups are doesn't it. No I haven't tried them with tins.
I Don't drink and drive Bob.
On 24-Apr-06 at 13:47:14
BST, seller added the following information:
Bob haven't you got work to do or do you find
that you have a problem relating to the rest of the human race?
What is it with the cup holders? My suggestion is that rather
than buying a car you go out and buy a cup holder. It's much
safer - trust me.
On 24-Apr-06 at 13:51:15
BST, seller added the following information:
Thanks Bob and I hope that you have a nice
day too. Oh by the way Bob you are now barred from bidding. I
figure that the motoring and pedestrian population of Great
Britain are safer that way.
On 24-Apr-06 at 15:10:48
BST, seller added the following information:
Bob sending me an email under a
different name won't work either. You are the only person in the
world who is even remotely interested in the cup holders and you
have misspelled the swear words in exactly the same way as you
did in your last email. Nobody and I mean nobody cares about cup
holders. Now let me make some predictions Bob and you tell me if
I'm right.
You collect the numbers of trains at Crew
railway station.
You live with your mum even though you are
45.
You don't have a girl friend - indeed you
might even be a virgin (not that there's anything wrong with
that at 45 of course).
Your favourite programme on TV is mmmm this
is a hard one....got to be one of these inane outake / blooper
type programmes or a practical joke programme that darken our
culture. You know the kind of thing where a comic pretends to
leave you with 15 dogs in the park whilst they go to the loo.
That's funny isn't it Bob?
You button your shirts right up to the neck
even though you don't wear a tie.
How am I doing?
On 24-Apr-06 at 15:20:42
BST, seller added the following information:
Hi Bob,
Thanks for your prompt reply. How
did I know about the trainspotting, the telly thing and the
shirts? Just a wild crazy guess I suppose. Even though you are
not a virgin are only living with your mum temporarily you are
still barred. Hey tell you what, there is a chap who would love
to swap emails with you. He's not doing much at the moment, he's
just tending some land in the middle east and buggering up a few
million peoples lives. He would be delighted to have a friend.
How about you send him an email on
vice_president@whitehouse.gov . All the best.
On 24-Apr-06 at 22:32:49

Ahhh back on! I would like to
thank all the people who have sent me e-birthday cards and
greetings. Thank you.
Jamie I am sooo pleased that you have been in
tears reading this. Me too - the bidding is slow!
Thanks to everyone (except Bob and
Donald). Bid now please.
