The next one on my list was again a black 400i but a phase 2 with
automatic. It was on my radar for a while and this one was not far away from
where I live. In fact it’s the same one as listed in the top gear article:
Judging by the date it had been for sale for the past two years. The
company who had it for sale was specialized in VW vans: http://www.europeancollectables.nl/
I just did a quick search and found this old website which still has it on
display:
As you can see it was for sale for € 23.000 with (1)27.000 km on it. Difficult to judge the car from the few pictures. The turning lights seems not bright orange and might indicate it had been outside in the sun quite a lot.
So on a saturday afternoon I decided to make a quick tour to visit this
400 without making an appointment. On arrival it appeared nobody was around
but not much later I discovered someone. The owner was on holiday and the guy
told me the 400 was sold last week and exported to Czech. Although the 400i phase 2 isn’t my favourite I was interested to see it though, just bad
luck. Next one please.
