You will have to break it yourself or sell it to a breakers as the engine issue makes it worthless as it is .

Thank you for your opinion popsdosh, but others may feel differently. I have thought of that route, but would rather sell it as a whole car for now.

Gul, I can’t send a reply to your PM as I haven’t reached the post count that allows me to send PMs. Will this reply count as one? I’ll try again.

at the sellers price, and adding on 10-12k for a new engine then the vehicle is still worth what similar D4 are going for on autotrader so will be worth something to someone, especially if they can do the engine work themselves2011 D4 XS 305 MY12 - gone but not forgotten

Sorry I’ve just read the message at the top of the outbox that says “Messages you've sent will remain in your outbox until read on the site by the recipient.”
Does that mean Gulla will have it in his inbox now? Bit confused why it has to go in to the outbox.

I love that interior combination of the light leather and black doors / centre console etc, very similar to the XXV. If I was closer, I would nearly try to bargain with you and just take the interior!

PMs aren’t email, they don’t go offsite. The outbox is where your sent message goes until the recipient reads it. Then it moves to the sent box.
This allows you to see messages you’ve sent but which have or haven’t been read yet.06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
Any issues with the site let me know!
