Hi,

I've been on the hunt for a daily driver for a while now. Spotted one I liked on Auto Trader on Monday advertised by A&G Motors in Wakefield. Phoned up about it and spoke to a guy called Andy.

I told him how interested I was in buying the car and that I had the full cash amount waiting, and asked him how soon I could come down to see it (with a view to buying). The earliest that suited him was apparantly tomorrow (ie Saturday), despite my offering to come down the day after my phone call (ie this Tuesday past), and also stating that I could come down any day this week.

So we agreed that I'd come down on Saturday to see and buy it because that suited him best. I phoned him again on Tuesday to get details for the HPI check and arrange my insurance, and once again confirmed that I would definitely buy the car if it was as described. He asked me to phone him tonight to confirm that I was still coming down tomorrow.

So as he requested, I have just phoned him, only to be told "Sorry, i've just sold the car to someone else today". So despite my paying for the full HPI, arranging insurance and agreeing to buy the car he's gone and sold it to someone else on a day that apparantly didn't suit him for me to come and view the car .

I understand that money talks, and that from his point of view there was a chance I might not have turned up tomorrow, which is fair enough. However, what pisses me off is that I could have easily gone down on any day this week to buy it, but it supposidly didn't suit him :w all:
