Watching for MMs for sale in Canada

[cold_one]

Saw a couple for sale posted on Kijiji and on Autotrader. Are any of these member's cars or do any members know of them?

Man that Silver Birch looks tempting.

Man that Silver Birch looks tempting.

Except for the tips being wonky. Suggests either a bad repair after a rear-ender, or a hacked and crappy exhaust job.:(

The first one I noted is not on Kijiji but is still on AutoTrader:

I am browsing thinking to buy some day. Any thoughts on comfort level for KMs. I guess it depends upon use.

I thought this one in cambellford looked interesting, it sounds like it does a longer daily commute and has been stored winters. 10k sounds reasonable also.

Your choices must be limited in manitoba, good luck finding your MM!

I have contacted the owner of that one and waiting to here more from him. Stated he is second owner but has had it for a number of years. Looks pretty good. Unfortunately for me in MB, I worry about the unknown. To cite Trooper, hopefully it isn't "a three dressed up as a nine".

You are correct about limited possibilities here. One MM.net member from MB did pm and gave some very good advice.

I believe it was your car I enquired about (the DBP when it was for sale in Ottawa) but too far away and not enough time.

Yes that blue is mine now and i can tell you, you missed a gem, lol, sorry.

No doubt it is hard to buy from distance, i guess you just have to talk to the seller, determine if he is telling you like it is and spend the couple hundred the one-way flight costs. Nothing is final till the slip is signed so the seller really has nothing to gain by BS'ing you.

To me an unsalted MM is worth 10k, 176k kilos, {100k miles} isn't too much IMO.

Good luck.

Here is a new listing a little closer to you.
