recently a sold a car with a few known problems, not saying what, just in case.

Anyway I felt dead guilty about it but my current sutuation meant there was no way I could keep the thing and no way to fix it properly. Sold it to a nice fella that new nothing about cars really (didn't even check the oil) but he did get it cheap for what it was.

Felt both guilt and relief all at the same time as he drove it away. My only justification was that I've bought a couple of cars in the past that were basically fooked so this was just karma balancing things out a little.

Anyone ever knowingly sold a nail of a motor?? did you give a flying fcuk???

I don't feel so bad now, looks like I'm not alone.

Car I sold wasn't dangerous it just wouldn't start if you parked up hill and either the head gasket had gone or it had worn bores. Not bad once you got it going though.
