Two tips for ebay  (CARS)

1. get off your ass and go look at the car. Even if its 200 miles away.

2. decide what you would pay for it .( lets say £1000) Enter your bid in the last 10 sec.(1 bid only)and bid £1002)cos no one wants to loose by £1, But others think the same.

The best Omega we had was bought blind, the worst was travelled to and bought from a garage..........go figure.......

In my opinion when buying from ebay, never make a purchase that, you could not afford to take a hit on, tyres, parts and scrap, in worst case; a lot of communication has been going on behind the scenes......

I have bought cars on the condition that they have been through an MoT and passed before I commit

At least if it turns out to be a shed, you know that it is essentially fit for purpose
