As some of you will know I went to have a look at an R32 in black today.
Standard 3 door, 53 plate with sunroof, no leather.
First inmpression were good, car appeared standard, alloys were excellent, with very good tyres. Car had done 12900 miles.
Prior to going to look at the car the seller described it as pristine! We agreed a price on the telephone provided the car was as described!
When we got there fortunately it wasnt raining and lighting conditions were good. The car was ok, I was willing to accept a car without full leather if the price was right.
I would probably have an R32 sat outside now if it werent for the seller b4ll5h!tting me about the conditon. The car had a car parking ding on the N/S rear 3/4 panel, and on the drivers side 3/5 panel, which apparently the seller had nevfer noticed. FFS the on on the passenger side was the size of a 50p!!! Anyway, treid to re-negociate the price, to compensate for a dent master callout! But the seller wasnt having any of it.
Why do people lie about the condition of a car to make you travel 35 miles to go see it? When they must full well know your going to get upset when its not as described!
Anyway, new autotrades out tomorrow and it free listing day on ebay. So we shall see.
I may well extend my budget to compensate, seen a minter with 5000, leatehr and sunroof, but it an 03 and the owners wants 1000 more for it!?
The hunt goes on.........
BTW, how good are dent master really?
Any1 had any expierience with them? Ta)
