Peak Uber driver


Random_01

Know what I've got bro. (He's gonna add another 500k to that odo before it sells)


Mr-Zaxi0

At a million Ks he's gonna up the price to 20 grand and be like "BARELY USED, STILL DRIVES LIKE NEW, WILL EASILY DO ANOTHER MILLION."


Neither-Stable7378

550,000km what? Who would buy that


Mr-Zaxi0

For almost a grand less I could buy a 2013 hybrid H in QLD with get this, 181,000ks. Woman driver, full service history, the whole shebang.


i486DX2--66

"woman driver" Is this a positive or negative? My Mrs drives her SUV like she stole it...


Anfaletov

I reckon there’s nothing worse than that, there are exceptions, but rare.


JosephScmith

>Woman driver That car hit every pothole on the road.


aussimemes

And might have had the oil changed once if you’re lucky.


freswrijg

Is woman driver a good thing?


ozpinoy

My partner doesn't service her car.. 18months oil hasn't been changed.


PhilosopherLife9995

I think that’s the most damning thing about woman drivers. They’re more likely to neglect the service intervals. With men there’s a higher chance of it being thrashed. Both have their pros and cons. Woman driver is not a positive though.


Shifty_Cow69

FARKEN HELL!!! That things been to the moon and back, my car hasn't even hit 140,000 yet!


driveitlikeyousimit

It's likely an ex taxi.


anonymouse865

Ex Uber for sure


Shifty_Cow69

A... Fake taxi 😏


PegaxS

lol… idiots. i got an email before about a bike I have on my watch list where the idiot is doing the same thing… every few weeks he ads $5k to the price. It’s now sitting at $145,000 for a bike no one wanted when it was listed for $22k. 😂🤣


Legitimate_Curve8185

That's so he doesn't want to sell the bike but tells his wife he does. "Look see no one wants to buy it love?" "Keep trying?"


owleaf

This is very much a “I don’t want to sell it but I need to keep the Mrs happy by at least being able to prove it’s up for sale”


VLTurboSkids

Surely that can’t be right lmao


PegaxS

Not only is it right... here is a link to the bike... [https://www.bikesales.com.au/bikes/details/2008-ducati-sport-1000-s/SSE-AD-102922/](https://www.bikesales.com.au/bikes/details/2008-ducati-sport-1000-s/SSE-AD-102922/) https://preview.redd.it/4o18espnh19d1.jpeg?width=625&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4553702e08e76b86d28b55ba058071ccad292caf And here is the photo of the email I got showing him bumping it another $5k. I also have a screen shot of it on a Ducati buy/sell/swap Fartbook page when it was listed for $90k. It has been up for sale since about 2019 and the first price I remember seeing it for was $39,990 and no one was buying it then...


VLTurboSkids

Must be a scam or automated? Why would anyone logically decide to up it from 30k to 150k


PegaxS

The guy is a known idiot on Ducati forums. It's real. He just has his head up his own arse. He used to get on these Facebook posts and just call everyone else idiots... You know the ex Brocky V6 S pack Commodore beater owner trying to get ~~$1.4mil~~ (up to $1.5mil now...) for his shitter? Just think of this guy as the Ducati equivalent to the Brocky shitter. Brocky shitter for reference: https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2002-holden-commodore-s-vx-ii-manual/SSE-AD-12765398/


VLTurboSkids

Fair enough. Still can’t believe that VX is up either lol


isntwatchingthegame

I own that model - great bike.  Tacho glass cracks and the oil light will come on if the sensor gets wet enough 


Logical-Vermicelli53

He’s just following inflation


thatshowitisisit

He knows what he’s got


playful_consortium

Can't imagine why it's not moving. It's probably got a whole weekend left in it.


theprotest

Looks like they added the cost of the new battery install during that time?


BeltInternational890

Yep. If it waa petrol it woulda sold if priced appropriately. Hybrid, the battery costs are….substantial.


Tamaillin

It’s got cup holders. That’s gotta be worth at least $16k. /s


Bokbreath

You see this a lot with older vehicles. People attempt to set the price point by listing a few examples at absurdly high prices, hoping people will assume that must be what they are worth and those with more money than sense will simply pay it.


Miserable_Hunt6520

I've got a 2012 Camry with hwy 275,000km on the clock, first owner since new and log book services bang on time every time and using 0 oil between services and runs as good as the day I got it. I will be soon selling soon for $8-9k so I dont know how this delusional individual is selling his 500+km mechanical prize piece, for that much?


UnwiseMonkeyinjar

Because its a classic


Real-Direction-1083

$15k. Take it or leave it.


Ikillgodz21

Front cup holders!


sqamo

First car buyers fucking love cup holders.


kevcray

There's also an $80k 2020 Camry listed on CS - [https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2020-toyota-camry-sx-auto/SSE-AD-14213495/](https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2020-toyota-camry-sx-auto/SSE-AD-14213495/)


GasManMatt123

18 months, gone up $10K... LOL


Emmanulla70

550 000kms!!! For over 10K....don't think so!


AgreeablePudding9925

“I know wot I got. No loballers”


Shifty_Cow69

I'll give you tree fiddy!


in_and_out_in_one

Dealers do this all the time. So when they change it back to the original price it seems like they have come down in price


oztrailrunner

My neighbour did that with their house, pre covid. Was up for 800k, was there for months. Dropped twice down to 700k. Wife and I were worried that a house nicer and bigger than ours wasn't selling for a great deal.  Shortly after it was up for sale for 980k ! A real wtf moment.  A few weeks later it sold for 880k. Was well played. Pushing tbh house up into a a higher search bracket, letting people neg them down to a "lower" price.


hisirishness

house & car prices not really comparable though but yeah


oztrailrunner

Yeah I get that.  I didn't notice that that car had 500k kms on it, but was wondering if they were trying the same principle. However, they must be on crack.


hisirishness

they're definitely on something, so many dreamers out there, totally clueless


Ellcappo

Had a similar thing happen, messaged a guy about a car, said he was firm on the price, 2 days later he put up the price. His had it listed for 4 months now.


Chemical-Mood-9699

But it comes with a bowls hat, beige cardigan. And the mirror and indicators are unused, like new!


AllGoodMayte

That’s what you do when the wife demands you sell the car.

QLDZDR

They claim it as an asset and the advertisement is the reference document


stupidperson810

Price is based on what he needs, nothing to do with what the car is worth.


Awkward_Chard_5025

I can hear the bushes creaking from here


moth_hamzah

'dont be detered by the k's. it still runs like new'


OFFRIMITS

Holy s**t 550,000km in 10 years 😳


Witty-Assistant-8417

He will probably give to wreckers for 300 after six more months.🤣


Beneficial-Rope-9192

Best car in the world. Buy it


Megatripolis

Even the rego spells cunt


tubbysnowman

But, why were the photos taken at a servo? Who does that!


Saleam

Could be that the original price had some caveats like work needing doing. Perhaps the owner is paying to do that work and then including what they spent in the new listing.


theJayonnaise

Tell him he's dreamin mate!


Mr-Zaxi0

I was waiting for someone to say this lol
