This car has now reached £3.1k with 26 bids and still has 4 days to go reserve not met. Just hope it's as good as it looks and the bidders don't get caught up in a bidding frenzy.

We use to see this on the RX3s and RX2 (when watching and discussing on the exile forum) that where around a few years ago now in the UK. Mates bidding up prices then the seller re-listing it once no one matched the price of his mates. I dont understand how they could jump this much in such a short space of time.

it's now at £3800 which it's probably well worth if it's as clean as it looks.... it'll still need money spending on it though.... very very low miles a year means loads of parts will need replacing to make it reliable, the front bumper isn't sitting right and they've 'refinished the wheels'.... they don't look right either. Interested to sell what the final genuine sale price of this car is.

at £3800 and not yet reached its reserve price. Good number plate though which must be worth a few hundred.

6 grand :o it's got more shades on it than Josephs coat..... the front bumper doesn't line up, there's signs of new paint all over it, the wheels look like they've been polished by someone with a piece of sandpaper and when did they stop making Goodyear Eagle NCT 2's ? .... at least 15 years ago.
If this is worth 6 grand then Keiths and Dibs immaculate red cars must be worth 10 grand.
