Another Cerb for the Bristol region? - Great Chasing Dragons today (passed 'your' spot where you drank lots of water last year).
If you mean the ROsso Pearl 4.5 for 7999 I'd say it looks to be an OK price if a not too costly fix..

This one?

if so, I'd be careful, not saying that there would be a problem, but Ashington, isn't exactly the nicest area in the world. Also that company have had lots of cars in which need repaired, I was looking at a sports exhaust off them off one of the salvage cars, but dont have the money at the mo.

Seemed a nice chap on the phone when I bought some rims, but they were far from as described when they eventually turned up.

But, they were a good price, so you pay your money...

...go into any purchase with your eyes wide open.

Whats the reason? the mileage? it has FSH?

I had a look at and was driven in the car lst night and it seemed OK? It needs abit of TLC cosmetically but...

''I've not heard anything about the car but I have about the dealer''

I've met the dealer and whilst its fair to say that he doesnt wear a suit and doesnt have 'dealer facilities' he seemed to be a decent enough bloke...

warning heeded however

'Autowash' do seem to sell their fair share of CAT D & C machinery but this particular car isnt registered and has the service history - it was a trade in - so, Autowash havent actually done anything to it...? Or, at least that is how it would seem..? Thats why i was asking if anyone could vouch for the car.

The thing that worries me (and purely from an outsiders perspective, not knowing the cars or the dealer in question) is that he is selling this at £500 less than a CatD example, the obvious answer is that the listed car is lower mileage but personally I would say the Cat listing would have more of a hit than another 30k on the clock - however if it all checks out then could be a bargain, mileage would not unduly bother me in itself.
