And there we have it, im back in the market for a car.
On the other hand...
Standing on principle whilst a potentially auspicious purchase drifts by...you'd have to be both young and foolish....!
I wouldn't throw away the chance of a good car at a seemingly bargain price out of stubbornness if it ticks all the boxes.
There a few for sale but getting the spec you like is quite hard. And if you go/work away often this is made all too difficult due timing etc.. I missed a couple that way and ended up putting a deposit on a car unseen after getting frustrated with the whole searching/buying process, missing some belters, viewing some that were in poor condition etc...
But your right, part of the reason I didn't end up with the one your looking at was slow communication, which meant another one came up in the time I was waiting for a reply.
And you have to consider if you did purchase it, if he is this slow in replying when trying to sell a car, what would it be like if you had a problem with it after purchase?
I must say though, he does seem a decent, genuine guy when he has time to communicate, and did answer all my questions in detail. On the whole he gave me confidence to be happy enough to buy from him, although I never actually got to meet him.
Anyway, if it helps, I do have pictures of the underneath of the car if your still waiting for them. PM me your email address and I'll forward them on.
Had a similar experience unfortunately but would concur with above that its probably the owner. Nareman tried to get something organised but as the days and weeks dragged on I traced the owner and got in touch directly. Well, sort of, I never got a reply! Not a "thank you for your interest" or a "we are having second thoughts". Nothing. Yet the car remained up for sale for months afterwards.
