Ok, new car found. Insurance quote sorted.

Seller called and voicemail left... I'm being impatient now waiting for the call back. Maybe I should employ the tactics of one of my ex's and keep on phoning hehe

Come on! I'm like an excited child!

Not 'bought' it yet but I'm about to get a Elise 111s. Hopefully from the chap I'm using to contact!

If the vendors on pistonheads I wouldn't think you'll be getting much off the asking price!
Not sure I follow! I'm not expecting any money off whatsoever (private seller) and I'm happy to pay what he's asking subject to an inspection from a specialist.

Have you viewed the car yet?
Should have been clearer. I've found the ideal (as near as damn it) car and I'm just trying to contact the seller to go round for a look.

Sounds like the car I am viewing this afternoon.

You, sirs, are rascals hehe

That's the colour I would have it in!
To be honest, we originally wanted dark silver of black (boring! wink ) but decided at the last minute that blue looked really nice
