Anyone in South Ayrshire

Anyone close by who could give THIS a quick look over for me?

Just to check its not full of lumps of filler etc falling out, and give me an honest view on that failure sheet.

A few beers in return of course, for your trouble.

I'm nowhere near there but I have to say that even if it was next door to me I wouldn't want the responsibility of judging something of that value for someone else.

It doesn't look particularly expensive and I would expect that it would have a few issues at that price, but it could well be useable.

It could also be a complete pup and rotten to the core but tarted up to sell.

I think if you are keen, you should go up and see it your self and maybe even spend a few quid and have the RAC inspect it.

Cheers

I think you're right Mark, just been discussing with Mrs, its a bit of a risk spending that sort of money without seeing it......

The right one will come up.

Price doesn't seem right for the description of the condition

The right car always comes up, but from previous experience buying specialist cars like that you are really best off getting yourself out to see a few and accept you're going to put a lot of miles on the clock to find it. How far is it from you? 300 mile round trip?? I'd say go and see it yourself anyway and see if there are any more local also - even if they're out of your price range. Soon learn a good'un from a dog that way.

Edit - just looked at the ad again. No feedback in 6 months and only a mobile number!! I'd say forget that one - anyone else thinking hijacked account??

A dealer trying to sell a car with no MOT ?

No V5 either ?
