What's everyone's take on this ? ? ? ? ?

Not the most concise example of haggling ever. Doesn't get around to how much he wants to pay.
 
FWIW I think that email is legit, i.e. not from a Nigerian scammer or the like. However, if you wanted to find the definition of nightmare buyer, I think that bloke adequately encapsulates it. I know how it is, having had my C43 on the market before and no end of crazy emails. Most I replied to, but some are just geeks with way too much time on their hands - it looks like this guy falls comfortably into that camp. His questions aren't unreasonable, just the way he has gone about it is totally irritating. I'd ignore!
 
I would reply to him saying, that the price to him has has just gone up by £50, due to the amount of time you've just spent reading his long winded, other the top email!

I wouldn't sell to him on principle. He sounds like the type of buyer who gets back in touch when he finds out the interior boot lamp isn't working!!
 
Quite easily mate, wheels and Tyres £700, bumpers and sills £700, interior £600, that just for starters mate ;)

The car has NO rust and NO dents, one of very few W202's in excellent condition left

Yeh yeh...but no headlamp washers...will you take £2000 for the bits you list?

I wonder if that bloke has any friends?

Lets write a reply for Justin to send back to him......
 
I find the strangest owners are the Smart car bunch. There are some right weirdo's about. Most are fine but some are just crazy.
 
Imagine being stuck in a lift with that person..... Ari Kari for sure

Mental. Probably a bit autistic/aspergers I imagine. I wouldn't bother replying.

TBH I am uncomfortable with someone's correspondence being held up to group ridicule, it feels like bullying to me.
