    Me too - I was on my way to bed, and came accross this link. Never in my time, have I ever sat to read 2 whole threads!

    Its made fantastic bedtime reading!
    Sorry to the OP who had to go through this saga
    And glad for you that nothing drastic ever came of it for you as the seller.

    By the way - did you ever list your husbands car on ebay? How did you get on?

  • WOW - i cant believe this is popular again! been years since it all happened! My husband did sell his car and more recently i sold mine on ebay! We didnt get scared off selling cars on ebay! Have no idea where the bus is now. I imagine it in the corner of a field with flat tyres and a nest in the chimney - poor thing!
    Glad to hear of newcomers enjoying the story.

    good to hear it didn't put you off for life :)

    I missed the original pic of the bus, but if I ever come across one going by it's description I'll certainly let you know where I saw it! ;)
