Thanks! We deliberately set it up that way for those reasons. And to hopefully keep our weekend clear! :-) And then I realised the Monday was a bank holiday... :-(

Looks like an auction success?

Yeah. Had a text from a guy who didn't quite manage to come and see it in the week saying he wanted to offer £11,000 but his internet connection went down!!! But I've spoken to the buyer and he's paid a deposit via PayPal already and is coming down next Saturday. Hopefully only a week or so before the new one arrives. It's now "in transport to dealer".

Thanks for all the help and advice guys. I'm pleased to say the eBay buyer has collected the car this morning with not a hint of negotiation. £10,850 vs the dealer PX offer of £8,800. Both parties got a good result.

The power of the internet - it helps the little man balance up power with the corporations and big business. Well done. When Apple's founders produced their first computer, their vision was to give every person the leverage that comes from owning a computer.

Thanks for closing this off with your final post because it's reassuring to know that a car, if advertised properly and honestly, will sell on eBay without any funny-business at the sharp end.

Best wishes, Arianne
