Have you ever done anything this stupid?
I have just returned for collecting a Phase 1 xsara vts with only 54k. I jumped on the train from Southampton to Bracknell, and saw the car. It's in reasonable condition, in a nice blue. The drivers seat has a little wear, but it was taxed and MOT till end of Sept. Over 800 was spent on the front end suspension last MOT!!
Anyway, I thought it was a good little purchase, so I did, but whilst driving home I notice it seemed a little underpowered. It was only then that I realised its the 1.8 rather than the 2ltr
I can't believe I have been such a tt. I wanted the proper VTS! Going to have to sell it now. Thankfully I only paid £700. Anybody looking for a cheap car? :cheese:
Have you ever been a tt like me?

This will probably get removed....
Slight white lie about the girlfriend thing, but I could hardly put "I'm a tt" in the ad.

ing owner didn't mention that it was a 1.8, unsurprisingly.
It's on Gumtree already.
So you looked at the documents quite closely then? Nothing jumped out at you when you gave the insurance company the reg number and they read back the model?It's on Gumtree already.
If it helps, it cheered me up no end and I can say this now because I haven't made the same error - yet!
