Agreed, the public and business users haven't embraced electric....... Too ugly, too dear, too unknown....... Leaf = Betamax.

I still made profiting it, it had a new interior and full respray. It was stunning when finished. That evil little car laughed at me for nearly a year, horrible thing...

Well over 20 years ago I took in a white R07 SL450 with a short MOT, it was cheap. Went to put the wipers on and they were waving around like they were having a fit...... The bulkhead was rotten, had to put a new bulkhead in it..... Huge job

Bulls are colour blind, a china shop would have been better

Definitely worth paying for the Stealers stamp. But, can you imagine the type of buyer who would want a used Leaf....

I'll take that....

Nik, clearly you don't like the way I do business, thats no problem What I don't dont quite understand is why you are trying to belittle and patronise me. I have an opinion which is balanced and fair, please explain the 16 approx "keyboard wars" I have been in the last 4 months..... I know you are an immigrant from Bularia which is a communist state, and I can understand why you want to be here. But I'm born and bread from a country where people are allowed to have an opinon.

Its a Ghia, look at the NSR door badge, approx 180k+6 Months MOT. GTB £690 me thinks.

The deposit is totally mutual, it’s an agreement between both sides. It confirms intent. Nik, didnt you have 4 wasted appointments last weekend or the weekend before ? It made me think... why are you wasting your life, why are you devaluing yourself and your time. That’s time you could spend with your family and children. You’ll never get back. I simply don’t allow time wasters into my life. Been there, done it, had enough of it. Thats why I operate my way, my process it’s fair and ensures nobody’s time is wasted. As soon as you ask for commitment and they make excuses.... decline.

I'll start it early, the car owes me nothing. Drives as new, done 180k something.... What's it worth ?

Nik, I don't think it would of been a good business decision or ethically right thing to do to battle over £100 on a remote sale, the guy was totally genuine polite and remorseful.

The Merc was lovely. Wait for the next book project mondeo post and you’ll see TV. Book ?

No, they are good as gold, and the nasty neighbour had no reason to to report me to the council. He just needed educating.

That’s really spooky, my direct neighbours had no problem with me, both retired and wealthy but liked the fact I brought some life around the place...

Like We are all softies and like to help, are you a Student Lucas ? Please introduce yourself properly and explain your background.

Only once this year out of 147 sales, so far.... the guy called prior to collection and said Mrs says unsuitable, he'd made a mistake and I refunded. I have never had anyone actually come to me and disagree with the quality and accuracy of my appraisal....

Absolutely, the OP has every right to do what he is doing, he has to be bigger and better than nosey neighbour. However, if he persists then it should be him making a complaint to the council quoting harrassment, bullying, antisocial neighbourly behaviour...... The last episode of neighbourly hassle I had to deal with I turned it round onto the council and said all of the above about the sad retired antisocial nosey neighbour and they agreed, they went round to him and explained I wasn't doing anything wrong and he needs to stop his victimisation.....

I think it was bang on the money to be fair, the car was clean but wouldn't of commanded any more, I maxed it Well only the exterior photos, I hadn't even had time to have the interior hovered, the buyer always wanted a Merc (from a Mondeo) and that colour sold it to him...... Cheers, I'll start a new thread on the Mondeo when it comes in on Thursday. As I have said, I love the bangers...... But here's a preview, it's next to the Mercedes

+2

SOLD full price £1490 with a Mondeo taken in PX (£250) given. Project Mondeo will be next......

Great post Tradex

If only I had a LIKE button I've said it before, I love my old PX bangers.... I've got 16 proper retail cars advertised with another 5 to go on, but all I'm excited about is this old C200....... Can't wait to big it up in the vid

It is an auto, a few minor blemishes here and there, some very minor rust just starting, completely solid underneath.. Overall, its well above average condition. Drives beautifully
