Upsetting as I had travelled four hours to view it. The owner has been told and promised to amend the add accordingly but has failed to do so sadly we don't live in an honest world.
Hi oldskool
THANX for sharing your findings but please do start a new thread and do tell everyone what's been found to save someone else looking the trouble.

I tell you what I have noticed, everyone that buys outside the register tends to encounter problems or findings.

I would check Matt's out in the for sale section, car needs nothing.

Unless you qualify this I think the post is a little unfair to the owner, as you haven't yet proved you have any specific details of the issue.

It would be very easy to post something like this with ill intent, when there is nothing actually wrong with the car, due to a personal grudge or just because that sort of stuff happens online all the time - not that I'm suggesting that is the case here, but you do need to back this up with specific information.

Ben - bit of a change but the routes are sublime . . .
Would need a few things to drop into place but wouldn't mind this.

Just need to find a passenger who's willing to cough up.
