Default Anyone in Bradford?

Hi, is there anyone in Bradford close to BD7 1QG that could do me a favour for some 🍺 Tokens?

Cheers Dean

Even the Volvo owners in BFord might need a hint about what you need done, apart from the one fully registered mind reader!

PS: What is a token ?? If it can't be cashed in at a local pub, it might not be worth more than well used Monopoly money.

Beer tokens = British slang for money, specifically a small payment in return for a favour so that the recipient can get themselves a beer.

I'm not a fully registered mind reader, but I've got my provisional so I'll have a go:

I predict that he wants someone to help him buy a car being sold by the Central Motor Company on Great Horton Road... Maybe an S80... or a 3 series BMW

All I wanted was a couple of extra pictures

Yep that's what I'm after or just a second pair of eyes really. I have asked for a couple of extra pictures of the interior but all he done on the phone was ensure me that the interior was immaculate. It looks it from the pictures but I was after looking at the interior where the passengers would climb in and out of the car. Everyone has different standards immaculate to him could still be poor.
I have already done a 4 hour round trip to see one that was in excellent condition only to get there and it be far from. Torn and really worn leather, broken bits of interior, never mind the few major scratches on the body work they failed to mention.

Ok, it's less than 2 miles from my workplace, looks like their open until 6pm during the week, I finish at 5 but normally work later than that.. 7ish, but if I finish early one night this week I'll bob down and have a look and get some pics of any defects, which car is it?

Mine Gott! This is the V40 classic forum, not some place to pick up info on a dodgy used Beamer. Those cars are mostly owned by mid aged boy racers who are doing something slightly Iffy in the legal sense.
