Re: Wow now that's a super price!

its well presented and whilst the leather looks after market its a decent job too, alloys are expensive but not to my taste

Super for who?

Definitely not for the prospective purchaser.

Re: Wow now that's a super price!
It would be even more super if the author of this post had a red banner as they have 20k's worth (ish) of items advertised and do not appear to be a paid up member. If I am wrong and the 25 quid is all paid up then I am of course mightily sorry for making the point. I am getting a bit tired of finding threads relating to cars for saleaas it blocks up the forum for genuine g wagen interest items , I realise this is a free forum but.... Expecting some sort of grief about this one way or another Mike

Re: Wow now that's a super price!

Ooops! - I have to hold up my hands then as I am guilty of posting quite a few links to Gs that I find for sale. I do it because I thought members might be on the lookout and be interested - I hope to find my ideal 463 and am always keen to know what is available.

But if the general consensus is that I should stop then I am happy to do so.

Re: Wow now that's a super price!
Not general concensus, just me getting grouchy. If there is an interesting g for sale then yes let's see it . Sadly it usually ends up in a mauling of the vehicle and it's value We are a club of g enthusiasts .none of us want to see anyone get sold a lemon ,so if we know of one let others know .

Re: Wow now that's a super price!
Morning Gooch, I am glad that you now have your red banner I am not intending to offend I was raising a valid point and my personal opinion about vehicles for sale generating way too much forum traffic and comment. I will ask mark to remove my post made last night when there was no red banner by your name and I therefore felt it was a justified point , I did state that if I was wrong etc. Please feel free to g banter away . This is a free forum within reason and there are rules and regs that are to followed. We are all here because we like g wagens and all that goes along with that. No offence intended and I am pleased you got your red badge so quickly. Mike

Hiya,

i will stop the banter chat then. I have been following the rules and regs since 2008 when I first joined cheers.

Why does it matter if you have a red banner or not though?, people on here know me for a while I'm sure.

thank you

Re: Wow now that's a super price!

I have said on numerous occasions that one of the most popular areas of the website used to be the G's for sale section.  Any one could post an advert of their G for free or a link to another G for sale and lively discussions would then ensue smiley.

Now that this facility has been discontinued (wrongly in my opinion) we get a sparse number of G's offered for sale in the classified and there is no longer a dedicated forum section where G's being sold on other sites can be discussed. Which is why you get random posts about sales dotted all over the place.

Maybe we could re- introduce the G's for sale section to stimulate a bit of interest or should we just continue with a website that can go several days without any new posts ?

Completely agree. 

I'll see what can be done to get the for sale section back up.

Of course, posts in the "For sale " section will still appear in recent posts.
