might be worth asking him why if he payed 3800 for it 12 months ago, why he is letting it go for 2k less.

Bit strange to me

Everything sounds good when your selling a car to someone but if you do get it, book it in with prosport in stockport (0161 4329999) and get it inspected, and bank on having a major service done (about 600 quid) so you know where your up to (and it means the next 2 years are cheap driving )

It might be an idea to take someone with you when you look so at least you will have an objective opinion. If its your first scoob you'll just fall in love with it and have to have it!!
There are plenty more out there if this one is not 'the one' for you.

Well? What did you do in the end?
Did you look at it?
Were you coerced into buying it?
Is it good? Like it?
