Thanks for the offer Vix, but should be OK

Going to grab an early morning train on Saturday and travel up there. It's not that long a journey and is broken up with a few swaps so shouldn't get too bored with the phone and music to hand

Been doing more digging around with his phone numbers and the more I read the more things just stack up in what he has told me over the phone, car he wants to buy, etc. so I'm more confident with the sale. That's not to say the car is 100% perfect, but the seller does seem 100% genuine

It looks a sound buy and was I considering a 3 series, it would have ranked on my short list for definate. Its not over priced, its not under priced and seems very genuine. He buys and sells a few cars by the looks, so I'm not sure if this is one of his sale cars or if its one he has had a while and is replacing it with something.

Did you offer you pug?

I don't think he buys and sells cars from what I've read and what he said. He just seems the type who swaps his cars every 6-12 months because he gets bored and wants something different.

Didn't offer the pug, it's really not what he's looking for.

Pop in for a kick in the balls and a slap round the face on the way home if you fancy breaking up your journey on sat. We're 10 mins off j22 on the m1

Funnily enough, I mentioned that to Sinead the other day. You guys are pretty much exactly half way back home if I detour slightly in your direction, although it does add 25-30 mins to the journey compared to if I go straight home as I'd head down the A1 instead of the M1.

Also, Sinead is away on Sunday for a few days so don't want to get back too late on Saturday. I'll see how it goes and what time I get away with the car and then maybe give you a shout if I'm heading your way

No worries. We will be in if you do decide you need a break

I wouldn't pop in for a break, it was the kick in the balls that got me.

The Pug is going. Been clearing it out tonight and must admit that, after 11 years, it seems a bit odd that she's buggering off in to the distance. A guy around the corner buys old cars, does them up and sells them on. Nothing major, just something he does on the side of his spraying business. I'm dropping it off tomorrow night meaning I don't have to worry about swapping over my insurance and trying to run two cars at the same time. Nice and easy. Best of all, if I don't, for some odd reason, buy the new car on Saturday I can grab the Pug back until I don't need it again
