    I would of gone but Manchester is too far.
  2. I sold a Golf GT TDI MkVI yesterday, lovely bloke no hassle sale they do exist.
  3. 2008 polo 1.4 petrol, parked in the shade starts no problem, parked in direct sunlight for a couple of hours it turns over but wont start. Any had this? Seems common among the VAG crap but cant find a definitive answer. Coolant sensor already changed. No fault codes
  4. I'm finding auction prices have levelled out at the moment,
  5. Main dealers will sometimes give them to you for free if you ask nicely.
  6. In other words they have no money.
  7. Have they got a ECU module on the rack like Citroens?
  8. All the VAG stuff you have to turn the steering wheel lock to lock to reset the angle sensor after a flat battery.
  9. Quite a rare car mint low mileage go to collectors! Not as common as the Lotus thats for sure.
  10. I was just stating pal, Most cars are checked but some slip through the net I guess. I'd rather save £40 or so and not buy one with a report waste of time unless its BCA then I have had refunds on those.
  11. Sure check is complete rubbish to be fair I just use my eyes and ears.
  12. If your garage uses another garage for MOT's they are legally entitled to charge you VAT.
  13. Not necessarily with manheim the ones I bought the staff said hadn't been through yet. Some have, some haven't.
  14. I've had some bargains out of buy it nows and in the hall but otherwise very similar.
  15. If your feature was called "Why you shouldn't be a dealer" you'd fill the magazine up.
  16. I've only ever bought one with no history a Fiesta Zetec S, you could clearly seen it had work done with all new brakes, clean air filter and clean oil on the dipstick. I sold no problem and its amazing how many people buy a car without even asking about history. Then you get others who wont buy a car because it missed a service.
  17. What about a real clean grade 2 car with clean mechanical report but no service history. yay or nay?
  18. What? For me its max of 3 owners what ever the age unless its a convertible. I've had 5 owners car before customers turn their noses up at a perfectly good car.
  19. Its no secret if you want finance find companies and ask them!
