What sort of mileage/price/spec are you looking for?

Approx the £25K mark, (although there is a px to complicate matter, but this is currently advertised privately, hopefully will sell privately), 50-60K miles SG preferred but would not say no to CB, spec wise Climate/Xenon's/PDC etc would be nice, but flexible on this if the rest of the car/deal is right.

That is 6.5 hrs each way, it would need to be exactly as described to make that journey.......................................

You wont get sympathy from him, on the weekend he drove over 10 hours each way for the trackday at Snetterton!

If you think it's the right car 6.5 hours is nothing

Exactly and on the Tuesday of the same week i picked up a car from Hull and drove the 7hrs one way back to Aberdeen.

If it's what your after go for it.
Call the guy, explain the situation with travel etc and tell him you are happy to place a "refundable" deposit on the car providing it is exactly as described.
If he has nothing to hide he will agree. If he says no then walk away and find another.

Oh the weekend trip to Snetterton seen over 1500miles on the CSL

Spot on, let's remember that these are rare cars so you will need to travel. It's not a run of the mill common as muck 3 series at the end of the day...

Don't be so lazy

I live near Penzance in Cornwall and travelled to North Yorkshire to view one (7 hours each way) as well as several trips to and around the London/North London areas (6 hours each way).

In the end i bought my car from a private seller in North London. If it looks a good car then you have to make the effort
