Who will buy this wonderful car?

[Captain Jack]

Is it sold already? eBay ad finishes....

[rwb]

Yep, gone!
To Andover, apparently.

Was a bit strange clearing it out going through old stuff from what seems like a lifetime ago. Now the 407 needs clearing out

[Captain Jack]

How much did it go for in the end?

[rwb]

£550

[V6Exec]

Just totted up from the ebay advert £25k spent over 120,000 miles gives a running cost of just 20p/mile

[rwb]

Yep And on average 8.8p/mile on fuel.
Excellent bit of kit.

[waue1978]

Yep, gone!
To Andover, apparently.

I might see it around then. Sell it to anybody I know?

[Welly]

First thing he did was light a fag in it.

Nice, quick, result there though. To be fair he's got a good motor there, probably £4K's worth in real terms.

[rwb]

Got a missed call from the car bloke.
He can't demand a refund can he?

[benczuk]

Nah, private sale it's sold as seen. emphasis is on the buyer to test it is fit fur purpose, which I'm sure it was.

p.s. assume someone has noticed time stamps are off by an hour?

[rwb]

Panic over.
Turns out the fuel gauge is up to its old tricks so he was wanting to lnow how to judge it.
I just run it to 600 miles then fill up

First tank on the 407 did just 48 mpg!

[Doggy]

First tank on the 407 did just 48 mpg!

That's pretty good - I was just patting myself on the back for averaging just over 47 mpg yesterday.

[Welly]

I was patting myself on the back this morning to see my 'average' up to 26.6mpg

Pardon me being so bold but not all motorists fill there cars to the brim, your buyer might well slosh-in £20.00 or £30.00 so if the gauge is playing up he'll be up the swanny, still "sold as seen an all that"

[steve_earwig]

The computer in the yoyo says 6.3 l/100km just now (44.8mpg). It's lying, of course.

Oh, and yesterday I jumped in it, turned the key and... the key disintegrated
