I’ve been out for a meal tonight and a couple of glasses of wine. Finger was hovering over the bid button. One more glass and I may be tempted....

Ah, ****! Now why would you post that where i can see it... Is a lovely looking hearse, bet it has a/c and the 3.0 straight 6.

If we hadn't just changed the Kia for a Lexus RX 400h, I'd have the cash for this. Phew!

He's not wrong Tom! Last MoT the advisories were worse than your last MoT on yours! Considering it's 10 years newer, it's been abused!

Checked the others, the V reg limo is even worse than the hearse, the private plate (ex - NI plate from the look) doesn't come up as a correct registration.

Suggests they've all been abused and neglected and from the repetition of some of the advisories, sometimes year after year and other times a few years apart but not quite the same, it suggests they have been run not only on a shoe string but a borrowed shoestring!

Back to my original advice, keep yours and sort it how you want, it'll be cheaper and better in the end!

Can't have given too rough or unreliable a ride Dave, none of his previous customers seem to have complained as he has a 100% feedback rating

Out of his feedback ratings, 25 (out of the currently 27) positive feedbacks are for things he has bought RIck. The other two sales feedbacks were for items over a year ago.

His own, non-ebay customers wouldn't really be in a position to complain anyway!

My point exactly Dave

Cheers - Rick, bad taste while you wait, Inventor and sole Licensor of Bibliomation, the Low Carbon Footprint EOL Service where the expired is disposed of, fuelled entirely by the contents of their own library and lifetime collection of junk mail, summonses and restraining orders.

BTW while agreed the 'donkey' wins no cigar for output it ticks all the other boxes
Costs nothing to make
all parts in stock
easily portable
quiet
economic to run
Whats not to love about that !
