Cool You can tell the economy is bad

Just waved off my little Lotus Elise. It took 3 weeks to go and was sensibly priced! The last Elise I had 3 years ago went in 48 hours. This time around I had quite a lot of interest from Europe (France, Belgium, Italy) with several offers quite close to the asking price. UK buyers? Barrel scrapers with laughable offers.

Seems our European cousins have more spends than us.

Yes, I just tried to sell my Focus ST. It was quite reasonably priced. I traded it in in the end for £500 or so less than I should have got privately but glad to get rid of it to buy another car.
