I’ve pulled all my advertising, my website is blank and my phone is on aeroplane mode and I’ve still had two emails saying I know your own hols but wanting to buy when I’m back.

You need one of those keypad things like air BnB or van rental companies docs in glove box, keys in key safe on wall enter pin check online banking and sell from anywhere in the world. Probably make a good press story too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JA Trader 58 Posted August 8, 2019 Spoken with Auto Trader and i nearly passed out when they gave me the price £612 + VAT as many say its hard time of year at the moment. Maybe ill spend more time in the pub and playing with my toys and worry about it after the school holidays. On a separate note i have a clio 182 in stock that seems to of brought all the dickheads round. My personal favorite from yesterday was this message "I aint fuking about matey. I av cash and ill come today" My polite response "I appreciate you have cash but its half what i am advertising it for." Not heard back since. If it carries on i might just keep this for myself Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Climate control or manual a/c sir? Just had another message of ill give you x today. It keeps me entertained at work i suppose might have someone on the hook. Manual AC car. Has both Cup packs "Full Fat Cup" and is in Royal Blue. Gorgeous car but if i tell the missus im keeping another i might not have a missus anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I sold a peacy 172 Cup keeper in the 'performance blue' that I really regret and, the 172 Cups are only going one way now, which is typical Its a strong consideration putting it away its good mileage but its been tracked. I think id rather keeper one that was standard. The 172 and 182 are now passing the 197 its madness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
