Yep it can be a real hassle, and yes you’ll get daft comments on Facebook no doubt but I found the most agro from Car & Classic. The favourite one nowadays is the “can you deliver it?” before they’ve even seen it or paid for it. People like to buy from their armchair now and even kick the tyres without leaving the house! :lol: . Such is modern life. :shock:

My favourite so far is… ‘can you drive it down to Torquay so I can look at it and if I like it I’ll buy it and give you a lift to the station’ !

A few years ago when I was selling my Jag XJ6 I had two calls from a bloke in Ireland asking me to drive it to Liverpool docks so he have a gander at it. I politely declined :D
