Although I've got to say first impressions were not good. I drove down the street to be greeted by a filthy dirty BX that was that overdue a wash it had green mildew on the paint work and moss on the window rubbers and if that was not enough to put off a prospective buyer who had come 250 miles to pay top money for a top condition car I was then greeted by James walking towards me with a set of jump leads telling me the battery was flat and we would need to jump start it??? Inside the car was as dirty as the outside!..We had only been trying to arange this viewing for six weeks delayed due to waiting for the car to be mot'd and then by the snowy weather but confirmed last Thursday, surely James you should have given it a clean and charged the battery?????? Once jump started things could only get better........NOT,..no diesel! we drive to the petrol station round the corner but can't open the fuel cap because we can't turn the engine off to get the key to unlock the fuel flap due to the flat battery..... back to the house for the spare keys etc...etc... luckily I am not blinkered and looking deaper I could tell it wasn't a bad car underneath, it started smoothly and drove well and I had driven a long way to buy this car so I handed over the money and started the trip home. Apart from the brake warning light coming on occasionaly it drove the 247 miles impecably with me having to keep raining it in from it's 80 MPH chosen cruising speed (obviously keen to get up North
) I plan to give it a full service and a once over this weekend, the wash would'nt wait thats been done. All in all I think this will be a good replacement for my TGD thats unfortunately due to be scrapped.
Thanks James, but take a tip and don't try and take up a carear as a car sales man
inside & out
