Default So your selling your scooby.........

Fair enough, things change and needs must, but if / when its time to sell your scooby what reason will you give ? ?

example ...

brought a wagon last month, its not big enough for my increasing family want a diesel 4x4 ? ? please......

wifes pregnant need a bigger car ? see above

brought last month, nothing wrong just not what i expected........

or if were telling the truth...

1. cost too much can't afford to run it
2. somethings wrong, cant afford to get it fixed
3. Its got a problem so im getting rid sharpish.
4. so on and so on


why can't people be truthful when its time to sell ? i know most are, but it just irratates me the excuses some people come out with ...

I sold mine 2 weeks ago. Reason - running costs. Went from a job where the commute was maximum 80miles per week to a new job with, on average, a 400 mile weekly run.

Got myself a rather nice BMW 320d. Petrol (diesel) costs more than halved, annual car tax halved, comfort.... well, it's like driving an armchair.

Yes, I miss the Scoob but I'm saving about £300 a month. Sometimes the head has to rule the heart.

i brought mine , and the guy told me the same ...thought it a bit funny till i saw his wife 8 months gone ...

he needed a quick sale , but was gutted as had it for two years with bags of receipts so well looked after ..

biggest mistake telling he needed a quick sale as it cost him 1200 quid of the asking price
