It's not a problem ... I'm part of the "great unwashed" these days ... and SWTSMBO is on half-term holiday ... a day out would do my sanity the world of good  :y :y :y :y

Unfortunately none have tow bars, the Transit doesn't and has no MOT or Tax, so that can't be used, otherise that would be an ideal vehicle really to use. I think my only course is to give him a full refund, and just get the vehicle back to me. I'm really hoping it's something simple and it can be fixed. He did say he wants to keep the car if I can fix it, but he's giving me about 48 hours to get it done. He has another car, so it's not like his stuck. I understand he's not pleased, I'm not sure how to play it. I want to try and do everything as much as he wants, but I don't see how I can.

Josh - giving you 48 hours is totally unreasonable mate.

Play him at his own game. Tell him you will assess the car in 1 weeks time, or else he keeps it as it is - final offer...

1/2 a plan ... Josh picks up bar from TB while I drive to oxford, pick up Josh & bar .. down to Farnborough .. I tow it back with Josh driving ???

EDIT .. or use my pikey bar with Tunnies idea ???

Entwood, you're such a top bloke  :y
But I'd feel bad you going out of your way by so much, unlitmately it's my problem and don't want to cause you any trouble.

Towing with bar is not too bad, as its a manual should be fine.  But, its good 60 miles  :-/

Most simple route is M3/M25/M40, trailer could be best way, officially you are over weight though, depends if plod would be nit picky  :-/

I am not around till Sunday, but if you need extra pair of hands i can be about  :y

I agree James, but as we all know Mr Wyatt to well, he won't be having any of that, and for that he needs to be praised. Well done Mr Wyatt.

Not sure I agree, actually.. .best intentions aside, (which Josh clearly has) you cannot let people lay the law down to you, like that.

I'm not saying be unhelpful... just don't let him walk all over you from the start.

Fix it on your terms Josh, or not at all :y

If pole reqd earlier (ie, tomorrow), I'm at home in Brackley all day until 5ish, if someone can collect.

Earliest I can drop it off to Josh myself is around 8pm ish

I echo comments of others, fix it on your terms Josh, you have no legal obligation to fix.

How you getting down there Josh? I can run you down there if needed?

Thank you all, I'll phone the guy early tomorrow to try and organise what can be done. As soon as I've got any info I'll let you al know, special thanks to Jamie and Nige...you've really cheered me up. There's no way I'm going to sleep tonight, but I feel better. Sorry to mess you both about, but I'm not really sure what's going on. After I've confirmed with this guy, I'll let you know  :y

No need to thank me, I'm in Horspath tomorrow early evening, so can come back Kidlington rather than Wheatley/M40, so you're not putting me out :y

Josh, if you can get the car back to yours, I will endeavour to fix it for you.

I understand you will be doing me a huge favour when the right estate comes along ::) - so it will be FOC from a labour perspective  ;)
