Cool story and all that, before you all start tongue out but just thought I'd share this. We were selling MrsC's Citroen C2, and had an enquiry from someone 250 miles away. Smelling a rat instantly, I asked why they would want to come all this way when there must be thousands of other C2s for sale in between. Turns out ours was quite a rare colour and their daughter specifically wanted that colour, and they were going to buy it for her for Xmas. So, I relented, and they asked me questions about the car, so then I suggested showing them round it via FaceTime. Went ahead, they liked it enough to send me a deposit in the post and then came and collected a week later! Apparently it's now stored on a friend's driveway pending having a big bow tied around it on the 25th.

Let's hope the daughter is not a secret PHer!

So, try FT, it worked for us!
