Don't know the car but 19000 miles has it been locked away

I got a response. I asked for more details but he said he was in Milton Keynes and the car was in the N.East. Said he would get back to me, but never has?

Looks like he's not exactly desperate to sell it !

Very basic advert, no mention of service history or work recently done, no description or pictures of interior, engine or chassis ?

Looks nice and shiny, but then they all do in photo's.


Of course it could be "yes dear I am trying to sell my beloved car but people just aren't buying this time of year"

"has body OF S1 with S2 engine" . . . . (hence S1.5)

"only covered 19k since NEW" . . . . . (as in brand new ?)

I'm a cynical old bu99er I know but I have not seen or heard of that car in the NE, and he's also selling two other cars and stating different reasons for selling each.

TVR = Change of job
Skoda VRS = Company car... ok...
Audi = Driving ban ... Hmmm...?

I hope it is kosher and it certainly looks nice and I dont mean to offend if "Liam" reads this but from whats been said so far I'm not sure...

K :awaits beating for being cynical smiley:
