Right, I've been thinking about this more and more and everytime I do I think of the Clio... so I want a Clio

Now I just need to find one I like and can afford, but I've got a bit of time so I don't need to buy the first one I see.

What I also need to do is get rid of my current car... anyone know how I go about doing that?

Describe your current car here, Age/mileage/condition/extras/service history etc etc etc.
What do you expect to get for it money wise ?
Easiest & quickest way with 2nd hand cheapys is your local paper, Just prep an add set the price a hundred quid more than you want then wait for the phone & let them chip you a hundred quid. Don't bother with flea bay or auctions as you want Cash for the motor when you sell it & always write Sold as Seen on the reciept.
How much money have you got for the Clio ?
And being patient is the key to getting a Decent motor for your money. There will be literally loads & loads so always remember that when looking one over. No matter how good that one is there will be one as good next week & maybe better. Never rush into a motor/deal.
What i do is have a Full day but do a lot of prep work. I get around 5 motors set up on the same day to look at & plot my route & arrange my mate/lift.
My route goes to the closest motor working out, On every motor i bid the owner to see what he will take, I then go to every motor doing this until i am furthest out. I then use my mobile to deal up the best motor & reserve it over the phone & deals it off against any of the other motors. It's literally, Hi mate it's Malc again, I'm at this other Clio & it's nice but I do like yours better, I can have this one for 1900 quid but i want yours but yours is 2200 quid, How about meeting me in the middle & I'll be back at your door with cash within the hour No messing, I'll just pay & be off & you'll never see me or the motor again sort of thing.
Obviously it's not a script & i play it by ear but you get the idea I'm sure

Also I/we are here any time & like i said before me & other chaps will talk this kind of crap till the cows come home

*Idea* With mobiles these days you can go see then ring take pics post them bla bla bla

It'll be great

To be completely honest with you Malc, it's old and it's a mess - I half expect to have to pay someone to take it away

Describe it if only for comedy value
