The greased up brake pipes (obviously to get it to scrape through its last test) and the rotten sills together with the mileage, just no. Good cars can go wrong and cause problems, but stuff like this, is like welcome problems with open arms. Sometimes its not all about the profit. Sanity is priceless. Thanks Jimmy, but its a 14 year old banger and it'll be sold as such 1 hour ago, JimmyGlen said: Fair play AD, but I just see grief written all over that.

The brake pipes really aren't like they sound, I'll video them and show you. I don't sell unsafe cars just to grab a profit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dealer 54 Posted December 8, 2018 Big balls on you fella, stuff like that i call them either "shitters" or "rats" .........i give them to the local banger dealer to "rat 'em out" Don't want any association with the forecourt whatsoever as these punters that come back thinking that they have bought a new car do my nut in!

I don't sell unsafe cars just to grab a profit. It’s not worth taking a risk on the brake pipe IMO. You can’t tell how much metal has corroded away and how weakened they are with the naked eye.

Lorris007 0 Posted September 28, 2020 Mhm interesting, I really do not have an opinion about that, maybe I am on that side as yours. For example I have a big family, 3 kids ... two boys and one girl ( hah I think it is a lot )and all the things as car seats I have bought on Baby jogger Strollers. It is a nice site which has a lot of good products and to be honest I was very well surprised about the quality and prices. I have recommended it to all my friends and they also was very satisfied.
