Trade advert free again....what am I missing here?

Be nice to get some feedback from the OP......

It's free for trade? It's certainly free for private sales. When I tried it it cost us something like £20......that song of Taylor Swift comes to mind with lots of add9 chords

Make a change from fretting about a VAG EML

I think the OP will insist on it being listed as a wrong ern, it's good thing to take the moral high road at times, on other 'roads' it can be very costly though.

Misti got pulled on fiddling fuel consumption figures a while back....ohh and accounting err, errm....irregularities....having for Japanese companies I'm wasn't the slightest surpised

Sapporo, Mirage and Celeste weren't too shabby

Ohh come on FFS. If you want to buy 'all good' cars at auction, avoid the car auction, buy retail and you even get a free balloon. Having a proper fit for purpose PDI inspection prior to sale is going cost a LOT of money and to my mind is unworkable but, if it did could be made to work you need think this thru a little. Where is the value to the vendor and, if you think there are too many civilians at auction now...... PS.....there can't be many dealers on here that haven't put a wrong urn in the block, got me out the shite many times and long may it continue. Or to be brutal buyer beware, a greedy punter has saved my bacon. PPS, I don't buy that a seasoned trader, buying hundreds of cars every year, shapes up for a lumpy motor, that's finest german tat and prestige german tat, in multi source, unassured but assumed a long MOT, full service history, service prior to sale is any guarantee of condition, then cries that the auction system is corrupt when it's not a peach....see retail with balloons.

Put it back in the ring. If you insist on buying a non inspected car thru multi source though.....you win some, you loose some, risk and reward.

7am to 7pm for online V5 change of ownership......do they employ a guy winding the computer handle or maybe a lady in a huge hamster wheel driving a generator for it

FFS....this stuff could not be more unsuitable

He is driving it so hard it's loosing traction on the inside wheel....it's doing what it was designed to do.

Don't listen to the haters Brilliant cars, used to sell oodles of these, great sellors too......those early 'high light' ones really are getting quite rare. Handle like they are on rails. The sunroof switches break for Italy though and were made from unobtanium many years ago. On the key fobs they can cause the signal light to show but not send a request pulse nia the RF. Have you checked the key is sending a signal on a RF/radio check box? Also these early FIATs use a dumb remote in that it simply operates the central locking, doesn't link to immobiliser or anything else. What this means is the signal reader from one car (interior light area) is matched to it's remote so you could in theory take the reader from one car with it's matching remote fob and simply swop over the reader and use it's remote.

And here

This

Spot on, those off road tyres will suit a 1 Series, afterall they do spend a lot of time off road......chains...wiring....diff....ABS rings....BBQs etc

MJG50. What ever happened to your Jaguar with the head gasket issue, an update would be welcome.

And a HPI check thru your account etc

Personally I hope he does neither, you and me will be paying for it

Yes, there is/was a guy who does camper van conversions, not been here a while though.

Same here, there are REALLY are cheaper cars for sale privately. Obviously a lot with undeclared Vcar status/cluster changes etc

Put it on T2T, should make a bundle, the clientele love german gear....

BCA?

The 'cost price' isn't too important nowadays bar informing the nieghbours. The amount of 'buyers' dropping anything over a small dipper on new EV's or IC's is pitiful, the VAST majority are strapped up on lease, PCP et al. I want a 'fully functional' EV too but, maybe not in my lifetime.
