Unless the car and docs are in front of you, don't send money in the post. Look at the guys feedback as well, lots of negatives! If it was me considering the car, I wouldn't be.
His wording of the advert is very dodgy, small jobs needing done but he wants to leave it original. WTF??????
Alasdair
I always treat the write up as nonsense anyway. "Wants to leave it original" roughly translates to "can't be arsed to pump money into a car I'm going to sell". Plus I ignore all the bluster in adverts, my company sales team are just as bad......
Top spot with the ebay ad by the way, he probably hoped I wasn't going to look again, and to be fair I hadn't due to so much going on at home. That ad is very different to the one I won, and now mentions some rather nasty engine problems. Looks like I'm walking away. That explains his reluctance for me to see the car. To be fair, I would never buy a car I hadn't had someone look at, and was only considering it properly again because I had a guy willing to take a look for me.
