Sorry Un-Agreeable Slick for offending you in this way! The clue is in the title though. If you dont like, dont read. 38 views there must be some interest. Anyway, back to normal life!!

Over & out

No, the clue is in the forum rules and guidelines. If you don't read them, that's not my fault. They are clear for you to see. Plus there are also common topics with sticky threads at the top of each forum sub section.

However I accept your apology for such a silly mistake.

Happy postings.

By the way, the for sale section is down the bottom. Oh and just in case you don't fancy reading the rules and guidelines you need 10+ posts to send and read PM's.

This really is your life!!! Have you really read all terms & conditions?? Maybe you wrote them. You really are very, very angry about this.

Sorry again

He probably has read them, yeah, and most people have given them a cursory scan :wink:

You can't value a car very well, it's worth what someone will pay for it. If you don't know what to ask for it put it on ebay for 99p and see where it gets. Simples

I'm not angry about it at all.

It's irritating for all people on here when they see the same topic over and over when people put "what's my car worth" when it is a completely unquantifiable question. My guide thread points that out, as you will get a large variation in what people are willing to pay (usually way below what you would try to sell it for).

IF people took the time to do a bit of research before posting such topics they would have a much better idea of how much similar cars are going for and therefore could price accordingly. Don't for one second think that just because you are a newbie that I am targetting you, as it is far from it. You will see (if you stick around long enough) that I carry the same process for all threads be them from new or old. No one rule for one bollocks.

I again, accept your apology with thanks.

Enjoy your posting.
