Don't quote half (or less) than what I said in order to justify your contribution Micky.
Would you like to add the other relevant bit of my post there?
In fact, I'll do it for you:
You DO have only 17 posts, which confirms that you're not a regular contributor (which as you quite rightly say you don't have to be) but it gives the appearance of infrequent visits and/or finding little of interest on a forum with threads as wide-ranging as this one does. I accept that you could simply be a driving enthusiast (and not a conversationalist).
Good point, fair enough.
But if he isn't he'll be found out when someone views it and doesn't find then things he says are there.
And the result will give us evidence that we can rely on.
A lot of prospective buyers are, due to the advice given on here when they ask 'I'm thinking of buying this - what do you think?'.
I think this forum should pride itself on being believable.

Answer: Sweet FA!
His post count is totally irrelevant, it means the square root of **** all.

Well, looking on the bright side - at least this has turned into a bit of a laugh now 
I cant be bothered to answer anything else now to be honest, but I do want to say thanks to the people who stuck up for me and saw this thread for what it is.
I had no choice but to defend my sale from this thread, which is smack in the middle of my target market.
Seems a few people want something for nothing these days, at least everyones not like that though

I've had no end of wasted journey's so i wouldn't worry about it Kas. You got to travel in order to see a car. Some people are more cottoned on when it comes to bodywork/mechanicals etc then others and some just play dumb and your never to know.
I know your standards are pretty high Kas but not all 10 year old cars are going to be immaculate, only very few will. It's getting hard to find "immaculate" cars and they are getting on in age.
Look on the bright side at least you saw a part of the country you otherwise wouldn't have and you have your money in your pocket

I'm glad your standards are high Kas as I'm driving round in one of them, that said as has been mentioned before some people's idea of mint is different to others . Andy

True, the idea of mint differs, however lieing to someone & making them travel from far, is out of order.
You can never judge a car by looking at pics, its like make up.
I've had several people contact me saying glad they saw this. Atleast this thread saved a few peeps from a waste journey.
