Advert aint been up 15minutes and its started...private sale of the wifes "warm hatch"

Stupid fking texts with stupid fking language and stupid fking offers...

The car is only worth £3.5k you poor bds. Even so i will not accept £1.5k....And yes there are stone chips and there are no "extras". Why on earth would there be? The advert is detailed regards spec and fking to the point. Its a seven year old car and done over 100k.....fk me....
It was less painful selling a car 10x the value last year!

fkin bks....

Too many time wasters nowadays. I'm surprised many have contacted you at 1:00 in the morning.

I'll be selling my 350Z this month and I'm absolutely dreading it, especially as it will be at the bottom of the market in terms of pricing.

It took me nearly 11 months to sell my RX-8 18 months ago, and that has put me off for life.

So did you sell it to him, or did it go to someone else? If you did, did he actually speak like that?

The trouble is 14 year olds love to read classifieds as much as we do and also I understand they are rather fond of sending txt messages

I only got one 'best price wker' through the ebay classified ad I put up recently. I replied with just the word 'retard'.

Didn't hear back. Was a little disappointed.

No i sold it to someone else, but that was only because someone else had arranged to come before he contacted me.

I have just put my car up for sale. I had two calls at about midnight last night! One was asking me a question and when i answered they hung up! The other seemed ok and are hopefully viewing today.

Its going to be a nightmare i can tell!

Now you're speaking all 'gangsta'! You don't, by chance, entertain yourself by sending me spurious text messages when I'm selling cars, do you?

The person who called at midnight is now M.I.A, why say you will set off at 8am to be here for 10am and not call to confirm anything..... The cheek!

Yes, but as a 22 year old I concur any such person is a fkwit...

As for selling a car. Dad was recently selling his. Had a man ask for 25% off the asking price and I quote "because I live 150 miles away and would have to get the train down". Right, and that is my problem how?

Best to give those types a call back at about 1am saying you were worried they might have had an accident.

ou've lost all sympathy with me I'm afraid.
How so? Dont really understand your point. No need for sympathy just want rid of a car to free space on the drive! Want to make an offer?
