Yes sir. Are you steam cleaning your rims?

THE MORE THE MERRIER! Love the wheels on it, dumped.. 'Nuff said!

Since we're posting CLs now... Here's one just to say we had it. Sorry for the crappy pics.. I think I took them with my Moto EVO or something...

Is it just me or are those tire sizes way too small?

ArmoE55

Dude needs air in them.

biggking

Not on the road.. Looks weird since it was sitting like this for 2 months.

Yea car sat around before we found a buyer. Didn't get to drive it though

Did you buy this car at auction? I'm fairly certain that's the same one I was trying to squeeze out of the dealer's hands before it went to Copart. Nice ride!

I did! I ended up getting it through Manheim. From what I saw, that car was traded in to a land rover dealer in Jacksonville FL and then ended up at Copart. A small used dealer in Davie, FL had it and tried to retail it but the car had more issues than they wanted to deal with (they thought it had a blown motor! But they were very wrong ). I bought the car from them through Manheim for 12,900 and all it ended up needing was a $300 oil pump. I lucked out big time. I have racked up 9,000 near trouble free miles so far and all I have needed to date is regular maintenance stuff the last owner neglected.

How much were you trying to buy it for?

jaxe55

Yea that's it, I was dealing with the wholesale manager at Matheny Jaguar/LR. Based on some info I found out about it from it's past I was offering $10,500. They had just sent it to Copart after I looked at it and wanted $14k. I wasn't real comfortable above that but probably would have gone to ~12k. After a few back and forths he just said lets see what it goes for at Copart. I wasn't going to go through the hassle of bidding on it and then have to pay buyers fees, etc so I let it go. I think they ended up getting around $10k Glad to see it's in good hands, it was a nice car for sure, the exact color combo I was looking for. I ended up getting a silver one down in Gainesville about a month later for a decent deal.

What was wrong with the car? Accident history?

biggking

How many miles?

Benz-O-Rama

Here's just a few random ones I grabbed. E500/SL600/CTS-4 3.6, SuperPro EL Camino (My brother with my kids)

Funny thing is, for the longest time I really thought the grille in your sig was real...

ArmoE55

NICE!

It has had prior paint work but I was happy to see all original frame and body on the car. Previous florida salvage now a texas rebuilt. Body work was decent but the paint needed a good wet sand and buff. Aside from that and the oil pump I've put in, it turned out to be a rock solid car. Purchased with 71k miles. Showed salvage report at 50k so atleast it was repaired and driven for quite a while. I'm thinking it was a vandalism or hail car. I found the original owners info. I guess I could ask!
