Didn’t get a reply. Just another enquiry from him through another site.

At least Benji gave us some entertainment!

On another free trial. Still not covinced it's worth paying for. Especially with "leads" like this!

Christian said in another thread he is based in Northern Ireland

Won’t the donor vehicle need to be taxed?

I gave up after a couple of tries and just messaged Andy Entwistle. He sorted it out straight away.

Yes of course Mr Punter you will get one cheaper privately. Of course you won't get any warranty but if your mechanic is guaranteeing there won't be any problems.....

When i was 18 I wanted one of the Mk2 RS2000 Escorts. Couldn't afford one then. Can't afford one now! "A 1980 Ford Escort Mk2 RS2000 Custom has sold for an incredible £97,875 at the Silverstone Auctions Classic Motor Show sale, making it the most valuable of its type ever sold at auction."

Could have bought a decent Lotus Carlton for less then 10k many moons ago. Sat in it and looked at the dash and thought "It's just like a sh1tty Carlton" Didn't even drive it.

Sold a French guy an Mgf TF. The weird thing was he said he had previously owned one! Also had an ex-pat come up from the Pyrenees to buy a Vitara.

My finance rep was telling me their acceptance rate and it is about the same as Nicks

Tell the whole story Nick! Isn't this the one you "forgot" you had

Surely an invoice is the only proof they need. The V5 only shows registered keepers, so even if it was in your name it doesn't prove you own a vehicle.

Good advice from EPV.

"Apologies if I’m repeating myself- but also true re:instructions; the first time I jumped into a Prius (hire car) and couldn’t get it to start. Spent twenty minutes shouting at the thing before I finally admitted defeat and went into ask the woman behind the desk how to do it" Took one in last year. Had exact same problem!!

"As you know i have an unusual connection with HMRC (sure she will love being called that) but even with that huge advantage it is still going to be carnage." So if you get a letter saying you are about to get a thorough examination from a Vat inspector is that the equivalent of a "booty call"?

Don't they just pull a figure out of a hat?

No postcode input or distance search. Choose a county. Seriously?? Sorry but I'm out.

My first thought is get a new name. Googling nxtcar brings up some car wash product from meguiars. Secondly what secret do you know that Motonovo and their millions of £ don't?

8 Diesels, 6 Petrol out here in the sticks

Seriously what is your money getting you? Your profile says dealership name A R Laffling. Google doesn't show anything for that name apart from a painter in Sudbury who gets 3 out of 5 stars from a woman with the same surname!!!

Better take it off your profile then!

Should have done a wheeler dealer video of the restoration, including selling it back to the last owner for £2000 more!!
