What's a "Clio Coupe" racing chip?

Doesn't look too bad though (For a Phase 1) and i'm sure the running issues is nothing major.

Doesn't make any sense.

I probably overpaid for mine a bit, but I paid nothing even close to that!

As far as I can see, it has no redeeming features at all. 9 Owners, High milage, no MOT, no Tax, no leather. Pictures took in the rain, so its almost certainly looking a bit sorry for itself in the dry.

£200 Max.

Just sold for £760 quid!! Definitely not worth that as a whole car with no ticket, loadsa dings & dents and unknown potential problems!

I don't know if maximum bid amounts are available to sellers anymore - I think they used to be, so they could easily tell a mate to bid upto just below someone's max bid to bump it up - well dodgy!
I think ebay used to allow it as it increased their commission rates the robbing b'stards!!

It's so obviously rigged.... I can't believe people are still discussing it as a legit auction!

yeah there's clearly shill bidding going on but the point is unless the seller is very stupid, there must have been a legit bidder for him to shill bid that high against.
