Do pictures inspire confidence

The pictures don't inspire confidence in car let alone dealer.

quite, and I dont think I am alone on the forum to warn against this "dealer".

The seller is a breaker of late Rover parts, so as a breaker he's offering a car for sale rather than splitting it into it's component form where there is more money to be made.

I suggest that may lead me to believe either the bottom has dropped out of the second hand market for parts (unlikely) or the seller believes the car is too good to scrap.

Bet you never thought that your post would elicit that response Ian :cool:

Brian :D

I take it he's the west Midlands version of "Meerkat" of Saltburn......he really is a prized plum

Pics of any car strapped onto a breakdown truck are not showing it in it's best light!

looking at the surrounding pictures I did wonder if seller was a breaker but no Brian, I was not anticipating such a reply :)
Nevertheless a car tied down to a transporter does not give me confidence.

With those pictures, I'd expect the price to more like £1,000 less! NOT the best advert!
