For Sale Anyone looking to purchase a Mondial QV?

That's a bummer, hearing crickets. Maybe everyone has gone away. Good luck with the sale. I expect mine will go on the market before too long as well. Yours will be a great car for someone. It appears to have all those qualifications I look for, regular use, proven history, ready to go. The top is a bummer but that is where they tear. I think I spend about $1200 for mine installed, but who drives these in the rain besides me? And I've been watching the prices of old fiats get silly, this is still probably one of the great exotic bargains if not the best exotic bargain available. My mechanic recently talked about his love for the Mondial and he said nothing against the 3X8's but he really likes driving the Mondial as a whole experience car. Good luck!

 

550 for top. 700 install so mine was the same. I will say the guy did a fantastic installation and I hillbillyd the length of the links on the latches and I can now put it up and down myself. I used to put it down in the summer and leave it which is bad for the window. Now I put it down and put it back up at the end of the day. Sad to hear you may sell. I believe the Mondial is the best Ferrari bang for buck going and you have a beautiful car.

 

Looks great, how much is your asking price

 

What exactly do you mean y "hillbillyd the length of the links on the latches?"

I would love to put the top up and down at the end of each day of use, but I typically put the top up once a week or so. If it was easier to put up and down, I would do it daily.

 

Pics will help it sell. I cannot see the video unless I am at home. Just FYI.

 

Wow! good deal...am thinking about it thanks for replying

Hi,

Due to the high volume of internet scams, I give you the chance to receive the car at your home address BEFORE i receive my money for it. I appreciate your interest but I want to let you know that the car is located in Poland. I purchased the car in US and I moved to Europe, in Poland the law is different recording the registration of a vehicle that is outside of Europe, it is expensive and difficult to register this car in Poland, this is the reason of selling. Instead of letting it sit in the garage I've decided to sell it at low price.
I can ship the car to you, also I can be responsible for the transport cost and you'll pay after inspection. The car looks and runs fantastic! Within 19 days you will get the car and you will have a period of 2 days to inspect the car and when the inspection period ends, if everything is fine you can make the payment.
CLEAN TITLE IN HAND, NO LIENS OR ISSUES!

PLEASE SEND ME YOUR PHONE NUMBER SO WE CAN TALK ALL DETAILS OVER THE PHONE.

I'm looking forward to hear from you soon. Image Unavailable, Please Login

Unfortunately I could not post the pics he sent me in an email, but the pics are the same car as the one at the auction.

 

Not following these posts. Link does not bring up any Mondial. Are you saying the OP and the guy in Poland are the same guy? Not the same car.

The Polish deal is some kind of scam. No doubt you have to wire a deposit and that's the last you will see of that money, or hear of the car.

 

The only Mondial on that vehicle auction site is that hideous body-mod 89 red T cab that has been offered for sale for some years now. It's not the same car as the OP's car.

 

Not sure if the OP is the same guy however, the car pics are the exact same. Furthermore, this car is on several different auction websites and no one/ representatives can give any good information on it.

 

Chris Warren the OP (SSREALTY) is the real owner. I was also at Mondipalooza and met him and the car. And if I remember correctly his daughter too. He drove the car from far and it seem to be in very good condition by memory. This present sale thread is not a scam.

 

Agreed! Howard77, thanks for your concern, but you should delete your remarks from this ad. It's causing too much noise for the seller. This car is REAL and is being sold by a REAL seller in Austin, Texas. It's legit.

If you're unable to edit or delete your remarks at this point, perhaps one of the admins can assist...

If he found the scam postings elsewhere on the web, other buyers may have done as well without commenting here.

As you're correcting the story and vouching for the seller here, it's valuable to know that this thread is the genuine advert for this car. I could remove the posts, but I don't think that would do Chris any favors amongst those who don't already know him - quite the contrary. They are probably better left intact so that folks will know that if they are interested in this car that this is where they should enquire about it and not via one of the scam postings elsewhere.

All the best,
Andrew.

 

OK admin I understand your point.
Here are pictures of Chris's car in real life action when we were in Hershey. We drove from Hershey to Philadelphia. Please keep in mind he DROVE the car from Austin to Hershey which prove this is a REAL driver car not just around hometown. In my head this mean reliable. I think he won the award for the longest distance to the Mondipalooza. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

 

For potential buyers, look at Topsonline.com for new seats. The pictured one is mine done by Vic. Show quality work at reasonable price. I'm not affiliated with him I'm just a very pleased customer that dealt with him more than once.

 

Ok thanks for letting me know, will do

 

I meant to mention/ point out another car that I was looking at, as a possible scam. Did not meant to cause confusion with this legit seller. I knew that the seller in TX was good

 

I know Chris, too. He is a real person and a nice guy. He has poured a lot of love and money into this car and owned it for a long time.

A few questions: Can you post some pics of the interior? What's the condition of the dash under the pad? Trying to get a sense of the work required here. Also, was the last major completed in 2010? And what was the resolution to the engine problems you experienced back in August? Many thanks!

 

I haven't noticed any messages since November 2017. Is this car still for sale? Thank you in advance for your reply.

 

Is this car s
