German Fleabay Syncro Advice

Post by irishkeet »

Hello

I spotted a HT Syncro on German fleabay and I was wondering if anyone knows the van or has any thought/advice on it
Im planning to bid if the price does not go crazy, a shot in the dark but it looks tidy to me...

Looks tidy, but the paint looks quite new. Maybe covering up something. Dont think i'd buy it (or any vehicle) without seeing in the flesh.

Needs a buy it now price, then would be worth flying out to take a look, think the colour/interior colours are a strange combination, but looks tidy enough. All you need though is one over enthusiastic bidder and the price could rocket, I feel its near its maximum now :?:

Im not sure I understand that sentence! Just bid what you think its worth. If you win it, you win it at a price you are happy with, if you loose it then someone obviously thought it was worth more than you did!

I bought both my Syncros on e bay Germany without any issues - bid, won, flew over, drove home ..... couldn't be simpler!

It looks like a nice van but the paint has been done recently and the drivers mirror and stickers are wrong! Plus Mercedes hubcaps on a VW ....... :evil:

Might reach €10,000 euro

Agree, the door decals are wrong, not to mention the passenger door mirror also being of the wrong side. Alarm bells are ringing for me personally.

yep
I noticed the decals shame they did not get the correct ones after the spray, personally I always prefer the original paint
thanks for all the thoughts :mrgreen:

Thats the thing with Syncro Westy HiTops ..... their owners seem value them more than the rest of us!
