Now my method only applies if you have time, space, money, and knowledge to work on the car. I'd offer him $4000 cash in person and see if he takes it. Too bad it's not running in that dash shot so you could see if you are dealing with a Christmas tree's worth of problems or not.
Yes I would agree with in terms of eventually turning them over and making a profit. Well Done. i was taking the search of the vehicle from the perspective that he wanted a good condition X5 for himself. I do remember that when you found your X5 4.8is Imola it wasn't exactly filthy and neglected. And from where you have taken it from where it has come from. Well thats just impressive.
