I have seen that one and I've even enquired about it. I'd seriously go for it but it's absolutely miles away and have no real way of getting there to collect it.

At the moment, for obvious reasons, I'm reticent to spend five or six hours on a train.

It's a real pity as it does look like quite a nice example.

I've also seen another in Birmingham, which I'm more keen on not only for the distance, but despite the seller resisting it on Gumtree he won't respond to my messages and I have no other way of getting in touch with him. I've been trying for almost four weeks but can only assume it's either some kind of scam, he doesn't really want to sell, or messages from Gumtree are going straight to junk.

I almost bagged a nice T5 last week for silly money. Chap listed it for sale on a Facebook page and I enquired - it had been off the road for a couple of years so had no MoT cert and it was the other side of the country. I was arranging transport and had one guy offering me a cheaper price if he could collect and deliver the car last Friday - seller said he couldn't do Friday so I started shopping around for better transport quotes, when I contacted him the next day to confirm a day to collect he told me he'd sold it to somebody else and that they were coming to collect it on the Friday!

I'm not so much ****ed about him selling it to another buyer, I'm more upset that he told me he couldn't do last Friday and then arranged for somebody else to pick it up that day. If he hadn't refused Friday I could have moved a lot faster and sealed the deal.

Thanks for the heads-up though, much appreciated.
