I remember this being for sale for a good few months in the Dumfries area and had less than 10k according to the owner!

There is other posts about this car.............

Suprised its in there TBH, he has some real nice cars. Granted most of them are £4k+ over the going rate.
I hate RED escos anyway, almost on the same level as a radiant Saph cos imo.

OH NASTY!

Was at that garage yesterday, that escos is a complete mess but i think he has sold it! expect it to be back up for sale soon once the new owner opens his eyes!!

The guy himself is a little ropey i expect some dodgy motors pass through there due to some of the faces i recognise hanging around there.

My mate was looking at a navara and it clearly states on his website (no vat to pay) he also said himself over the phone, so we went down with a 06 sti scoob for trade in to sort a deal out he had agreed to give 11k for the scoob, once there his price went down to 9k nothing to do with any faults on the scoob then he said there was vat ontop for the navara! wasnt very happy!
