  • Be really careful messing with pdls as they can take your money anytime they like. Pay them off if you can without getting yourself deeper in the mess.

    I might have misunderstood, but if you are about to sell your car for around £2000, put against the pdls and this will clear the bulk of them.

    If it sells.....that is my plan B, its a bit specialist, I'v had it up for sae on Pistonheads & ebay before Christmas (Bad timing I know), for a month, it didn't sell @£2,500.

    Now I'm planning on relisting it @ £2k and seeing what happens.

    It has been my little project for several years and is extremely well maintained, but trying to get that across in an advert doesn't work. People just look at the age, mileage and cost and disregard the fact that it will last another 10years+ if looked after in the same manner.

    Plus it is rather fun! :)
    Debt 2007 = £30,000
