Default Absolute disbelief.

I have spent today driving 150 miles to Kidderminster to see a Rover 75 I had arranged to view. I spoke to the bloke, explained I was a mechanic and was going to give it a look over, I completed my checks in about 10 minutes and said I was going to get the torch from my car and check one last thing but was thinking that the car was a good one. What did he say? No, Im not doing business with you, you are too quirky. I asked what he meant and he said coming up here checking all this out its not on, you get the aa to check things out not do it yourself and told me to go.

I'm disgusted about this attitude, the car was ok, The front and rear bumpers have been resprayed and there is filler in the n/s/r wing and outside air temp sensor is flapping around and the back box isn't long for this world and the brake discs are orange with rust!!!! I didn't get any further than this before being told to go away. I didn't mention any of this to the seller either.
