    I always avoid cars that will 'fly through the MoT'. If that is true then why hasn't the seller got it MoT'd in the first place?

    Point taken re viewing the car first, will hold my hands up on that one. And maybe the communication was a bit pants, will bear all in mind for future reference!

    get a grip and leave the seller alone ; not EVERYONE who bus or sells a car on ebay is a crook ;the original poster should of viewed the car 1st and made his own assumptions BEFORE bidding ; she is entitled too defend the comments that the buyer placed on here ;

    also thanks to leeuk for the conspiracy theory,you may want start writing books for ian flemming.

    Hahaha.

    Go on then own up, who emailed the seller with the link to this forum? Good idea tbf! Although the seller really shouldn't of had to come on and justify themselves. Sounds pretty damn genuine to me, I'd buy it if I were about to take up hairdressing.

    Good luck with the sale.
    This thread has me so pumped, I headbutted my dog and we both screamed.
  • I don't mind that the link was put up, I haven't said or done anything wrong. Have contacted the buyer and arranged to buy it (deposit paid).
