The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.

Poss worth that with a 12 month ticket but without a few hundred quid.
Be very suspicious if he won't/can't MOT it

Still, be very wary of car with no MOT. Go halves with owner on putting it thru MOT, if it passes pay him his £780 and if not you have an idea what needs doing and can make an offer accordingly. At worst you will be 20 quid out of pocket, at best not lumbered with a rotten lemon

I think ill phone him in morning to ask more about this rust on the sill he was in the boozer all day so could hardley hear him lol
Quality!!! u should`ve shot right down there and bid him right in the ass with £200 with cash on you! frogmarched him back to his place,got the keys and history while he was `history` and got yourself a right steal,he would wake up in the morning wondering where the hell his car went and why he had a hell of a night and still had money in his pocket in the morning!Mike Brewer would even back me up on this one,milky teas!
