A little confused here???

Where does it say $700 $1000 ???

Judsons4eva - March 3rd, 2005 at 07:16 AM

The van is on show at the Melbourne exhibition centre and the card says "unreserved" indicative price $700 -$1000

GASBNR - March 3rd, 2005 at 08:26 AM

Thats the Mobil catch a combi promo bus isn't it ????

micromatt - March 3rd, 2005 at 08:47 AM

Unreserved $700 -$1000 is for the noce little porcelein Michelin Man sitting nicely on the table inside the Kombi!!!
Sorry guys, don't think it will sell that cheaply!

adster - March 3rd, 2005 at 11:03 AM

It costs about $2k to have your car in the Shanon's auction at the motor show!!! Regardless if you sell or not!!!

micromatt - March 3rd, 2005 at 09:40 PM

And your point would be what adster?

helbus - March 4th, 2005 at 07:47 AM

Yes it is the Mobil Combi full o cash bus, and it is currently owned by a Shannons employee

65busser - March 4th, 2005 at 08:44 AM

He probably gets a staff discount.

splittychick - March 15th, 2005 at 10:34 AM

Anyone know what this went for?????????

kombi_mad - March 15th, 2005 at 11:06 AM

does it come with the cash????????

kombi_mad - March 15th, 2005 at 11:11 AM

incidently, shannons rule for awsome insurance, and the guy that owns this fine machine, is a good dude and gives us kombi lovers a great discount... so good luck matt, hope it sells so you can buy that 23window that im sure youve tracked down on the black market somewhere..

SKEWtYpe3 - March 15th, 2005 at 11:58 AM

so it is matts, anyone know if it sold?

cheers

Che Castro - March 15th, 2005 at 12:42 PM

I thought the guy who owned the mobil one was on the forum? brad?

Vw nutter - March 15th, 2005 at 03:24 PM

this is the competetion sticker, looks similar!

aggri1 - March 15th, 2005 at 03:55 PM

I heard $17000 being tossed around. Might have been tossing. I wasn't there.

soft notch - March 15th, 2005 at 04:38 PM

$17,500 to be precise.

micromatt - March 15th, 2005 at 05:30 PM

Yeah, soft notch is presice. After some pretty fierce bidding, including serious interest from our good friends OS, the vehicle was sold to some lucky bugger in OZ. He/she has purchased him/herself an absolute gem. The previous owner (who incidently continues to speak in the third person:), can now afford to finish his 64 microbus - and go to Pomona in June, - and do more to the house, - and keep the missus happy.
Hey Ash!!! Thanks for the kind words. Will catch up with you when I next head North.

Stealth - March 15th, 2005 at 05:47 PM

Well done Matt, Pomona here we come!! More beer/swapmeet/show entry/nights at Hooters and general bad behaviour money ;)

micromatt - March 15th, 2005 at 05:54 PM

Hey Stealth..
Funny you should mention beer. Having yet another celebratory ale as we speak, quickly followed by another.
Does Hooters have a website?

BUGBOY - March 15th, 2005 at 07:43 PM

We can eat at hooters every night now!
And Pomona swap well look out here we come.

soft notch - March 16th, 2005 at 12:29 PM

congrats Matt, great result
