Gold FFM johnpwalsh Posted December 16, 2014 Gold FFM Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 Workmate of mine just told me he has just paid 30 plus K for a second hand porker 911 something or other, no that's not what made me unhappy, he has also just told me that it is going into storage until the spring and that when he went to view the barn it is being stored in he tells me that he came across an S2 Esprit which apparently has been in there for some 15 odd years according to the guy who owns the barn and if the fee's are not paid by March next year it's getting turfed out. Well my workmate is a mechanic to trade and of course knows what the car is so the dirty begger is getting it for a song on first option come 1st of March.

TAR Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 I'm looking to buy a small car as a runabout. I saw one advertised in Auto Trader and called the dealer. I arranged to head over immediately to take a look. An hour's drive later, I arrive to find someone else looking at it. I wait around for 10 minutes at which point the dealer tells me its sold. What a complete bloody waste of my time and a very poor show from the dealer especially as he made the appointment with me. Quote It's getting there......

Bibs Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 Had similar a while back. Booked to see a car and on my hour drive over he sold it. Wouldn't be hard to pick up the phone would it...

Gold FFM mayevora Posted January 3, 2015 Gold FFM Report Share Posted January 3, 2015 Well his car must go back to Mercedes as is so new (or it invalidates the warranty) Not had figures yet but guessing £2k by the time everything's done and fixed - hire car ect ect. Only Passed 6 weeks ago. Reversed far too quickly without looking - and her comment "why didn't the Parking Cencors do their job"? I blame the Instructor!
