See post #1 and click on the member(s) the nearest to the location of the car and PM him (the link is the member's name)

Sorry if anyone has mentioned this below, but in line with this maybe information on the garage / dealer selling could be quite useful. Obviously via a private pm rather than a libelous for all to see post. I say this as I bought my car from a used car dealer near Bristol; the dealer went from doing a full service to just an oil change to nothing at all 'becase it didn't need it'. I also was slightly (to be polite) mislead as again we went from the car sailing through its MOT to requiring one new tyre to two new tyres. Three months later I have had to get all tyres replaced, plus new brake pads and brake discs. As I live in Glasgow I can't excactly nip down the M6 etc to complain. I may have been genuinely unlucky or he may have a reputation for this sort of thing, I don't know. My point anyway is, especially living so far away, if I had known of any dodgy past I would have maybe been more careful with any re-assuring utterances. Or I should have just lied and said I was from Bath but that's another story.

I would gladly go and look at a Car for someone, i bought mine in Castleford and i was lucky that my brother in law only lived a few miles away.
So i know how helpful this idea is.
