[rainagain]

After another gumtree 'buyer' tonight I'm pleased to offer my Alfa for the knock down shiters price of £600

 

Here's my ad from Gumtree (please don't laugh too much)

Looks a good buy.

 

I take the mongtree buyer wanted you to sort the door, give weekly payments and a12 month warranty?

Now that's a lot of car for £600, and it looks bang tidy too.

 

Helluva colour, but rather suits it and is a very welcome relief from silver.

 

Good luck.

I quite fancy this - and you're just up the road. Clutch is apparently an absolute pig to change though, I guess thats why its not sold already.. looks a nice car otherwise

He wasn't a bad guy, I think he was just one of those guys that just likes chatting to people. We spoke about the car for an hour and he didn't even test drive it.

Wish you were closer. I'd be sorely tempted to this. GLWTS

Just sold this tonight for £600, buyer got a good bargain. 

 

The problem I have is he paid a deposit tonight and wants to pay the rest and pick up the car later this week. I would like to get as much car tax back from the DVLA as I can. If he picks it up on Thursday and I date the V5 with this date (30th October) and send it to the DVLA, will I still get the whole of November back or is the full month tax refund based on the date they receive it rather than the date of the sale?

I think it is date of sale. Well done on selling. The AR seats always look lovely. Nice one!

[CortinaDave]

thats a result. Getting to that time of year where its hard to sell anything, and I feared the clutch was stopping it finding a home. Nice work!

 

I'm pretty sure your refund goes on date of sale now that the rules have changed. Get it posted sharpish once he collects on thursday,
