Citroen XM Forum

In the past I have always quite enjoyed buying cars; it always seemed much more fun than trying to sell one. It seemed to me that all the mouth breathing, window licking turnips were potential purchasers: "Wot wil U take for it 2nite m8?" kind of thing, but it seems many sellers aren't much better either. I suppose logic dictates that they must (by and large) be the same people, I suppose.

I am currently trying to find a suitable car for my daughter as her first own car and actually getting people who have cars advertised to answer the phone seems to be the biggest hurdle. And when they do and say "On no mate, it's gone." that's even more frustrating; why don't they pull the advert for goodness sake?

Rant over!

I buy all mine on ebay, auction only, you really need to go and see them first but if they are not as described you can refuse to take them. You might have to travel a bit but you are unlikely to get one cheaper.
