It’s hard to kill a BMW engine, transmission maybe but engine not.

The issue with this car is an electrical fire.

This car just needs someone with time and electrical troubleshooting skills.

Unfortunately Oga Joel can’t work on this deal due to several car in a container.

But when I get cracking later then maybe he can give us a good demeanor discount in the future.

I wish to be shipping full containers.

But I thought agents can't clear one single car out of a container of multiple vehicles?

Maybe my shipper here is just being sly then.

Didn't know that was what you meant, since they'll be coming into the country with a single manifest, only one agent is needed for the clearance, so it all depends on what you, your shipper and others that have items in the container agree on. If you own all the items on the container, you can collect your papers and handover YO your agent but for separate owners, the shippers might handle through their own agents.

We shall get there, God give us good health.

Remember we have this now https://motorsportraceway.com/web/

So we have a Micra spec racing (cheap disposable piece of shyte) You can’t change the engine but you can modify but no turbo and has to have a certain minimum weight.

Let the games begin.

I’m sure that Uncle Gazzuzz will have a few tricks. Port and polish the intake? Bigger injectors?

Maybe be LeJeun will go the other way to make sure things don’t break. Better clutch? Stronger driveshafts?

Maybe Mayor and Nurey will go with suspension on thier entrant. Cut springs? Sway bar from Mack truck? shocked

The car you are buying $950

The misery you are inheriting $50,000.

Why? Why? Why?

You probably thinking that the previous owner is an idi0t.

Some of my best automotive deals were scored this way.

If I had the time and energy I can piece that car apart for $10K easy.

A quick story.

About 15 years ago I saw an ad for a classic Mini Cooper in San Diego. About 100 miles from me.

Owner was asking $2,500 and it was sitting at a mechanic yard. An Audi mechanics yards who knew nothing about Minis.

Owner was given an ultimatum to come and get the car or they’ll start charging storage fees and owner was leaving for deployment.

He changed the ad to $500 to the first person that can get to the car.

Even with a trailer I made the drive in about an hour grin

So yes, owner are not always stupid but the definition of opportunity is the right time at the right place.

Well running examples of this car are under $10,000 do why would anyone spend $50K to repair this one?

By the way I sold the Mini for $11,000 plus a ride on mower.

Sometimes the best things in life are staring at us but we fail to make the connection.

May be it is my hatred for BMW 7 series.

The experience of the owners are chronicled in the book of Lamentations.

And you have a legit reason because that’s a near $80K car new.

The way I approach this thing is I’ll never pay labor to a shop so it’ll only be parts and I’ll set a budget at the beginning. Budget thats cast in stone. Once we reach that budget and it’s not making a vroom vroom sound then it becomes a parts car.

It’s not for the faint of heart for sure but the result could be great.

It will make sense if you intend to use it in Nigeria because labour if very cheap there. Eg. A Nigerian mechanic can do engine swap for less than N40k for labour. But if na to drive this for Yankee, your mechanics would love you.
