BeesKnees Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 This house was on at £650,000, but today the price increased to £665,000 because it now includes a brand new Fiat 500! Deperate measures? http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-28587328.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MrPin Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 I'd want a Bentley with that! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pent Up Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 A fiat 500? Makes me want to buy it less now! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RufflesTheGuineaPig Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 The most expensive fiat 500 is £12k Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NW11 Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 I have seen so many cheeky worthless gifts being given away with homes, as crap as a box of chocolates and Jelly babies even. The fact of the matter is, there are still morons out there who fall for that kind of bait (some but not many) so the schemes keep running. Selling an overpriced house in this market is a little like fishing for the greater fool. You just hope to dangle out a worm hoping someone will bite. Most sellers right now are nowhere near desperate and are just being opportunistic. We are still too early in the crash to see any real bargains. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
justthisbloke Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 The most expensive fiat 500 is £12k Not if you get the open topped one with leather and extras. I, OTOH, drive (when I have to) a Fiat Panda - the true frugalista's auto. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Deperate measures? http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-28587328.html How ridiculous - I'd be banging my head on the desk if a vendor suggested that Edit* It's also clearly not brand new because it's already had one owner! Edit 2 Also more than likely the description will be in breach of the Property Misdescriptions Act. View it and if its not straight from a dealer you could have a claim under the act Edited January 18, 2011 by PbroAgent Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Protect Rural England Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Only if it's the old type of Panda: I still want a Panda 4x4. Are there any left? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

m4nclad Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 I know I'm just an ignorant northerner, looking at the London housing market - but ***k me 650k for an ordinary looking semi? - I'd want a helicopter chucked in for that price. That's about 3-4 times what I would expect where I am (Fiat or no fiat!) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
