• So where do you guys look for cheap cars. Looking for friends (fucking nightmare) and is a nightmare as they don't want a diesel but ved seems to be an issue, There is also the size issue as the car will be in a smallish garage. Last car was an astra so nothing longer than that. Nothing seems to be coming up via the trade that is viable.

    Save me from the hell of driving round london looking at overpriced shite.

  • Ah forgot facebook market place.

    Gumtree seems a bit wierd, or should that be people on gumtree are a bit wierd. Adverts for cars that are sold. No response to calls or emails. Meeting in strange places, like a cemetary... Pubs, petrol stations, supermarket carparks fine but cemetary with no real car parks.

    Even 3 differing dealers was just odd. Cars at the wrong price, cars with service history that can't be found, one car looked like it had a failed head gasket as there was oil throth in the water tank.

    One trader said that with the dealer scrappage schemes the number of decent cars about has dropped, as the scrappage trade price is way higher that the cars value.
