I arranged to view a Focus that was in Yorkshire, I'm in Essex so It's a 4 hour trip. About an hour into the journey the company phoned me to let me know they'd had interested party who'd already had their p/ex valued and was phoning up at three to either confirm or cancel (he worked on the rigs off Aberdeen). They said I could leave a totally returnable deposit, if I didn't like the car I got the deposit back. Pulled into the next services and left 1K deposit to secure it. I viewed the car and it was spot-on so I bought it. It was delivered to me on Monday!
I still say its a ringer.
