    Blimey some random threads there, particularly liked the "why does everyone else in the world have a different face" one!
    Haha, yeah sounds like a right weapon!
    But it is you though, I mean that DanS1 wants to work in an office and was taking an admin apprenticeship too.

    How did the clubbing with your dad go, find yourself a nice lady? 
    It's not me.

    Can we get back on topic please. What do people think of my idea of putting the car on Gumtree?

    But that DanS1 was trying to get a job at a dentist. His aunt was the practice manager there, same as your thread.

    Just admit it's you, you've been busted.

    The guy is trolling, see his other threads plus this one using an alter ego he posted a few years back

    There was a DanS1 who was banned from DigitalSpy's forum, but I'm sure that's just a coincidence...

    Good spot, that's our OP.

    And they both passed their test in 2019. To many similarities to be a coincidence.

    I must admit when I first saw it was a Yaris, I thought we had a Dark Matter sock puppet thread.

    I'm loving the failed his first test with two silly mistakes. Two serious (aka potentially dangerous faults) and he played them down.

    The £800 ones are probably knackered scrappers.
    I went to.view one, it was so bad I think it would have broken down on the way home.

    Sometimes the more expensive ones last longer. If I wanted I could keep this car for the next 15 years, rather than paying for some cheap old banger which will have to be replaced every couple of years therefore costing more in the long run.
    You’ll do well to keep a 2007 car which is already 15 years old on the road for another 15.

    Gumtree definitely works and people buy cars. You'll need to list it for £2000 at most to get any serious offers, though.

    Yeah I might well have to.

    Just took it out for my nightly drive and actually managed to find a parking space outside my block of flats! Still wish I never bought it though.
