Fed up of people advertising "Michael Schumacher" Seicento Sportings when they aren't

Seems to me that they are trying to pull the wool over peoples' eyes.

Only those in the know are going to be aware that there's a model plate with the car's unique number and the decal on the boot.

Or is it just me that's annoyed?

The day dealers are honest about what they're selling, well, it'll be miraculous for sure.

Had the same thing when I was looking for a Sei, there was a black one advertised by a dealer online, £1000 in very good condition but it was just a sporting, only found that out after a 1 hour drive to have a look at it.

Christ. I get angry enough just from having clicked on the ad and seen the pics.

If I'd have driven all the way to a garage and then found out I'd have gone fckn mental.

Have to say it didn't put me in the best mood, I did however find the sei sporting I have now only a few miles down the road for £200 less

Re: Fed up of people advertising "Michael Schumacher" Seicento Sportings when they ar

its annoying but at end of the day, i'd prefer a sporting over a schumy anyday of the week anyway (no offence schumy owners). Think Eklipze3k hit the nail hard square in the middle though - dealers are usually sly buggers and thats not gonna change anytime soon..

:yeahthat:

A sei sporting is actually a much better car............

Re: Fed up of people advertising "Michael Schumacher" Seicento Sportings when they ar

The Abarth sporting is the preferred version...

Which are worth money if you want better...

Re: Fed up of people advertising "Michael Schumacher" Seicento Sportings when they ar

besides sporting has 5.5j rims too, so still need swapping if you want 6j. I don't really have a preference between sporting or abarth addon one. I like both.

just spi over mpi & non-schumy over schumy

Just bought some shumy side skirts for my regular sporting, does that make me a bad person?

Re: Fed up of people advertising "Michael Schumacher" Seicento Sportings when they ar

no, just different from me

Well, thy're really Abarth side skirts, are they not?

Re: Fed up of people advertising "Michael Schumacher" Seicento Sportings when they ar

Makes me feel the need to compensate with loads abarth badges instead

EDIT: Can I swap the badges on them over? Prefer abarth anyway

Re: Fed up of people advertising "Michael Schumacher" Seicento Sportings when they ar

yep, the same bar schumy ones have an oval schumy logo on instead of an abarth badge.

Re: Fed up of people advertising "Michael Schumacher" Seicento Sportings when they ar

I prefer Abarth anyway just because most people dont know but the ones who do 'know'

If you understand what I'm getting at...

Re: Fed up of people advertising "Michael Schumacher" Seicento Sportings when they ar

The Schuey side skirk badges are about £90 each...

Re: Fed up of people advertising "Michael Schumacher" Seicento Sportings when they ar

Ooooh really? They shall be coming off, Abarth badges it is!

EDIT: Just found this ( http://www.partsworld-uk.com/product/Schumacher_badge_%28Side_skirts%29_735401695 ), not worth as much but still enough to cover the cost of some abarth ones

Re: Fed up of people advertising "Michael Schumacher" Seicento Sportings when they ar

Just checked the list price for the shuey side skirts decal and is about £45, but the boot one is about £95 for the black/yellow and about £65 for a red/silver???
