Default S60 d5 for sale immaculate

Hi guys I have an immaculate s60 d5 automatic se lux for sale it has a full main dealer history it has covered 115k with one owner from new. It is a 2005 face lift model it is the 165hp engine in this car. It has just had a service & ignition barrel replaced within last 2 months this car really has wanted for nothing. It is metallic green with full black leather interior with electric & heated seats etc the bodywork is exceptional if anyone is interested the car is in Edinburgh but I can send pictures if you pm me I am looking for £3000 but open to offers as I would rather the car was continued to be looked after someone who values it as much as I do

And I honestly can't believe anyone still tries to sell a car without pics.
I'm sure there'll be others for sale.........and who knows, they may come with photos.

A lot of stuff is advertised as immaculate / mint, etc but the reality rarely lives up to the hype. Not saying this advert falls into that category, but photos really are the best way to sell cars. As the seller said "First person that came to see it bought it" - perhaps if all the people on the forum could see it too, it would have gone even quicker

Or the guy that bought it was very easily pleased.

Without photos we shall never know but i think it is lazy not to post any and expect people to be falling over themselves to buy it.

I will try hard to get to sleep tonight knowing what i have missed

IF the car was sold as quickly as the OP suggests and for the asking price too, that suggests to me it was underpriced.
With better promotion and more viewers/prospects from here, there could realistically have been a bidding war and the sale price could've been massive!
Instead of being pleased with a quick sale, I would be gutted I'd just missed out on hundreds of pounds.

Unreal Master Tech is certainly not an unreal master salesman!

Is UNREAL the same as NOT FOR REAL ?

He who laughs last laughs longest?! I never loaded pictures as I work in a dealership (so am real?!)it is not the done thing to be making profit through my position. I got the car as it came in as a trade in the guy never missed a service & replaced,everything as soon as he was aware it was required. Given I see these cars everyday of my life and have done for over 15 years I know what is clean & what is immaculate as I said I would,rather they went on to people like you (forum members) that value these cars that's why I offered it here first & did state to contact me & I would forward pictures. The car was worth £3000 all day long looking at what is offered on here & autotrader prices I am no rip off merchant...that said Christmas is paid off now...so am sleeping great too?!
