Just summed it up well,timewasters account for 90% of the buyers out there unfortunatley!!I had a guy down before who came and drove my cav v6 for an hour,jacked it up to check all the lower arms had been changed,I'd already had it hpi'd so he phoned up to double check,rang his missus to say he wanted it etc etc.begged me to keep it til 6pm when his mrs finished work as she had the cash,it was only a £600 car.reluctantly I agreed,asked him for a deposit but he said he why as he'd be down at 6 to buy it.off he went,had a phonecall 2 mins later asking if the car was for sale ,assumed it was his mate checking up and told them it was sold,lost both sales as the little prick never came back.I'm not saying your a timewaster as you weren't but maybe this guy could sell the car on finance where he'd get a commission or maybe some idiot came in with a nice px that he robbed them on,it does happen mate,but it's not nice on either side!!!
