I know the seller of this and am genuinely staggered he's selling it for so little but thats what they go for I guess. Properly put his heart and sole into it too. Someone will get a lot of fun for not a lot of money.

Couldn't the op contact trading standards? surely this is miss selling? A prize is an advert for the competition. If the prize is changed then the advertising was misleading.

And that is why the "speed kills" mantra is badly flawed, they blindly argue that if you're below the limit you are safe! No allowance for driving to the conditions or hazards prevalent, as soon as you mention that they start bleating about why you want to drive at 150mph everywhere, they just don't understand that a 30 road at 12 midday and 12 midnight are 2 different propositions altogether, wreaks of being unable to think for themselves?

It's not just that though is it? It's the ongoing inference that just because these questions were not answered, that the McCanns are somehow involved.

Am I missing something ? (apart from the strangled grammar and punctuation).

That's not the correct way to spell implication.

Just made my first uncontrollable impulse buy :0 drove 200 miles anst left a deposit on a 1.9 205 Gti i collect it next week i hope it makes it home biggrin. This has never ever happened to me before, the impulse was uncontrollable i knew as soon as i saw it and saw the price and condition i had to have it.

Anyway i need to sort some brake down cover before i collect, Ive never had brake down cover in my life, So have no idea what im looking for, is there any kind of age limits on old cars or am i being silly? All i know is AA and RAC are these the best or is that just the mainstream ones, who do you guy's use? my main concern is it braking down on the way home, no reason it should but i want some peace of mind.

Cheers!

I probably should have included more context. Try this one-

Regardless of what you think happened, 2 police enquiries of trained officers couldn't find anything. Your repeated statements that the stories/facts don't add up is inferring that the Mcanns are somehow involved. You have no real facts just supposition, guesswork and tinfoil hattery.

If I was in the Mcanns position, I would be litigious too whenever some internet amateur sleuth tried to infer that "I done it".
