No regrets here. Much, anyway. I do miss this though: But in fairness it was starting to rust in irreparable places like wot all small 90s Fords do eventually. Might pick up a mint-ish one in a few years and show up Baggott's XR2. Also toyed with the idea of buying it back 6 months ago, but it's disappeared off the DVLA's database since then #AccidentalPatridge

When an auction sells a car to a private buyer they have effectively carried out the same deal as a car dealer, so I see no reason why they should be exempt from standing over any problems that should arise. If a dealer has to abide by the sale of goods act then surely it's only fair that an auction house that retails a car to a private seller should be bound by the same law.

James, I agree totaly with your first point, but your second point means a vital ladder of the motor trade get removed. There are honest roadside traders, I'm sure of it, so saying they should be banned is akin to the days where only Main Dealers could service cars under warranty because of the so called 'Experts' could do the job properly. All bad dealers should be crushed and stopped. All honest dealers should be given a fair chance by them roadside or franchised in £10m showrooms.
