And now we’d like to share with you the pick of a big bunch.
By the way, if one of these adverts happens to be yours, then congrats on the free publicity.

2000 Mercedes CLK55 AMG – AED 30,000 / c£5320 / $8167
Nope, you haven’t misread that. It’s now possible for you to buy a 403bhp, tuned V8-powered AMG for almost 1/14th of its original asking price. If you’re still unsure, look at it this way: for the same money you could either buy the CLK 55 or four Tata Nanos.

1997 BMW 523i – AED 12,000 / c£2131 / c$3267
What’s most impressive about this particular purchase – even when you consider the ridiculously low asking price, 300-400hp engine output, perfect mechanical record and impeccable interior and exterior quality – is that you apparently get an M3 as well as a 5 Series. What will the boys and girls in Munich think up next?

1998 Jaguar XK8 – AED 35,000 / c£6208 / c$9529
Break it down to its raw elements and you’ll find the XK8’s younger sister, the Aston Martin DB7. Forgive the wooden brakes, the could-be-stiffer chassis and ‘slight history of minor mechanical failure’, and you could be driving around an ‘Aston Martin’ for less than the price (plus haggling) of a new Toyota Yaris.

1990 Mercedes-Benz W126 – AED 36,000 / c£6386 / c$9801
So a 24 year old German saloon, which has spent the last we’re-not-too-sure-how-many years broiling nicely under the Middle Eastern sun, will probably make your wallet cry for mercy. On the other hand though, since there’s no mention whether this is the long-wheelbase SEL version, you may be pleasantly surprised just how much legroom you’ll find in the back.

2005 MINI Cooper S – AED 38,000 / c£6740 / c$10,345
Those of you who have been looking for a reliable (‘perfect inside and out’), nippy (‘150-200hp) MINI Cooper with an added dash of horsepower, less than 75,000km on the clock and ‘premium paint’ may have stumbled onto a winner here. And hello, what’s this? A manual gearbox?

* Like the Alpina below, we’ll overlook the $300 in arrears since both the Cooper and the Alpina provide an interesting comparison.

2001 B3 Alpina – AED 38,000 / c£6740 / c$10,345
It’s not the 200-300hp that sells this car. It’s not the muscular BMW 3 Series looks, the magnificently alloys, the fact that it costs the same as a used 2005 MINI Cooper S, or even the Alpina badge. When your reference for a used car is an entire country – GERMANY – you know you’re onto a winner.

1997 BMW M3 – AED 7500 / c£1330 / c$2041
For those of you looking to help out an owner who’s desperate to get out of the country and unload his menacingly black convertible Beemer with an un-lockable door (apparently) and nearly a quarter of a million kilometres on the clock, then now’s your chance. Just be careful when you open the boot though: laundered bearer bonds really aren’t something you want to be caught with.

2007 Maserati GranTurismo – AED 1000 / £177 / $272
We’ve no doubt that the fine print will boost this figure up to quintuple digits, but it’s an entertaining thought. In theory, you could walk away with a four-seater, luxury Italian saloon boasting a 400+hp 4.2 or 4.7-litre V8 and with just over 50,000km on the clock for less than the price of a reasonable sofa.

Now then, who’s brave enough to buy what they’ve found and tell us what it’s actually like to live with? Any takers?
