    They googled your name, found you post on here and thought “we can’t sell a dodgy car to her. Quick, refund her deposit”

    i think they have probably fixed the car and realised if they sell it to you at the price they arranged they would loose money as the repair required more labour or parts that they first thought leaving then out of pocket.

    get someone else to phone up and enquire about it and ask if theres any faults on it or any recent work been done to it.

    *sigh*

    "Fixed that for you" means "I have edited your post to say something that I believe is more accurate and/or funny"

    By definition the quoted post will not contain what you actually posted.
