I've just noticed they're taking money from me for tax on a car that was sold in July, I'd taxed it to use as a runner, when sold completed online as normal and it'd normally cancel the DD once you've done that, guess I'll be joining the que then too

Where in the North West are you pal? Ellesmere port has the odd one going through, tread carefully there tho.. Wilsons in Queensferry also have the odd one.

Bang on that Matt, control the sale and don't let them control it, had it yesterday with a battered 05 vivaro,the cheeky fooker was quite forceful and wanted me to tax it and leave it on my insurance so he could use it for a fishing competition this weekend then added I could take it off Monday as he'll be parking it up to convert it... he didn't grasp the fact it was only covered for accompanied test drives even if I wanted too and was genuinely shocked I wouldn't do that for him.

The shorts guy especially if he's the look at me type with collar turned up, pikeys, not all but most Eastern Europeans, Russians, middle Easterns, southerners, the Welsh, jocks, Middle Lane hoggers, people surprised when the red light they're waiting at turns green and takes them an age to set off, women who have to russle thru their bag then purse then many sections in the purse to find a card, same women takes an age paying for fuel then 5mins taking coat off, putting bag away getting into the car and actually driving off from pump..... Breath.... Politics, politicians, lefty loons, religious nuts , religion, silly rules and laws, anyone with no common sense and finally the Mrs once a month.

Ffs Benni boy, starting off you ain't got the pot to waste on rectifying shite, said it many times you've got to go and view them.. I was up your way (Lancaster) early Sunday morning buying a Van, was up just after 6am to get the train, on a fecking sunday. What colour is it? You may get away with a smart repair, price it right and get it gone if you get no joy from AB

She's only on about £39 a bonnet... wouldnt get out of bed for that

Dave Gilmours old Volvo was on ebay recently, I put a bid of £300 in I think and it sold for little more...its a right old shitter https://picclick.co.uk/Volvo-850-CD-TDI-AUTO-25l-first-owner-142821709525.html

I'm pretty much only shifting volvo stuff these days and I'm loyal to no-one in the parts game, I try my local breaker first purely so I can collect it straight away, if not the usual suspects listed above, ebay of course and www.volvobreakers.co.uk

Agree on the above posts, it's one reason why I rarely use it, Johnny foreigner and their stream of best price? Swop for gold chain and dog messages, then they turn up and try the chip or try and pay on credit card or some other devious tact, either way they're generally unpleasant meetings, Facebook is also an option hit and miss on there, I put my smoker on there Saturday and sold to a nice Welsh bloke on Sunday, didn't even want a test drive just a view of the receipt for recent cambelt/water pump... The same car also attracted a guy called Mo and when I viewed his Facebook page it was full of quotes from the Koran and infidel rants so he got ignored..

Was watching one on ebay recently, I was so tempted

Last one I put on ebay auction was an old Td4 auto cat c repaired Freelander for spares or repair, the title was 'The Worst 4x4xFar' and went on to slate it, it sold for £300 more than I thought it would, 56 plate and went for what you could pick a decent one up for.. No hastle from the buyer either. Having said that the couple of times I've used it previously I've been disappointed with the bids.

I know an independent inspector in Newry if that's any help?

0-60 in 4.7s and a top speed of 168mph for the under 40k 3.3 auto and still a 7yr warranty...that badge tho
