Ms 16v is looking for a red MINI for when she passes her test, hopefully next month.
She found a nice looking one at a good price, but I found 3 reviews for the dealer, 2 good and 1 crap.
I said I wouldn't touch them, it's not worth the risk. Cue argument and her steaming off with the hump. Am I being paranoid?
"****** Cars sold my elderly parents a WRITTEN OFF, and DANGEROUS car. The complete passenger side had been filled ad sprayed over. They refused to refund them ANY money. Consequently, i SUED them, and i won. I was given every single penny of my money back by the credit card company, as they had the ordascity to move location and to get away from paying their court fine. Conseqnently, the bank had to recoup the money from Craven Cars. This company is TERRIBLE. Please guys, do NOT trust them with a single penny of your money."

I don't know who comes off worse from that review, the dealer or the illiterate author.Ms 16v is looking for a red MINI for when she passes her test, hopefully next month.

If it's the car I think it is then it has done 74k? check the MOT and that was the mileage in August when it was done. It's either being doing not a lot for 5 months or something doesn't add up. Could be something, could be nothing, but either way a question needs to be asked.
It was said already but Mini's are pretty common, so if in doubt try elsewhere .

Not a place I'd buy from unless you purchase it based on it being a private sale.

Well, today I asked if she wanted to go see that car. She said she didn't think I liked it, so still wanted to go see that one at the dealer with the dodgy review.
So we went to see the Cooper near us, but she didn't want to as it had stripes. I told her they come off and the dealer agreed to do this, so we left a deposit and picking it up next week.
I didn't like that it had 5 owners, but full dealer history, 47k and drove well. RFT but only 16s, so not too bad.
Thanks for your opinions, especially as you agreed with me
