fancy buying it for a second car for the missus to run around in, she is jsut about to pass her test so i thought it would be something good for her until we let her loose on the nice stuff.

remember it used to be a van and its a cat c car. he says he wants around 5k for it. is that not a bit too much? i was thinking more like 3500??

Yeah thats what i thought, thanks for that, i didnt think to look on there, she really wants a diesel as thats what she learnt in!....typical but hey its for her so she gets. i saw the otehr blue tdci one on ebay, and she didnt like it, still think that ones too expensive.
i offered him 3500, is that too low? or about right? could be tempted to go a little higher as its quite nice but cat c and old van keep niggling at me.

was just lookin at that. looks right but just the van conversion and cat c put me off. mainly because i havent been involved in any of it so dont know to what standerd its been done.
on a plus side £35 to tax a year is awesome!

I would say 3500 is a reasonable offer, at the end of the day as has been said it is cat c and a van convertion. It's going to put plenty off, ok, maybe some numpty will bid like crazy, but if it goes for daft cash then it wasn't to be.
Petrol will only take a few kangaroos to get the hang off lol!!
I would hold firm, remember you aint seen it in the flesh, could be a tatty or poor job done on it.

thats what i thought mark, cheers for the info by the way on the place at whit burn, me and a mate are going to have a looksie, saw a couple of cars that i would have taken but the sale had been that day, will wait for the next one, they look like a good site.
i was willing to maybe go up to 4k but no more than that, as said it could be a shitty job,

can i not send the v5 away with the changes though? I thought you could change stuff if you wrote to the dvla, surely if i tell them that it has been converted back to a 5 seat car they will change the v5???/
next question is how much is the tax for a fiesta van?

Right it finished at 3300 and i have offered him 3500,
was talking to him today after he emailed me back saying he would accept 4200, i phoned him and said i would meet him halfway and give him 3800. Said he will not go a penny lower than 4000......
what do you think? bearing in mind i will need to fly from glasgow to london and drive the thing back if its in good nick.....if not flight back!
suggestions on a post card too ........

I would say it didn't sell and he should be happy to take 3800 as it is not far off.
Stick to you guns, tell him your keen, have the cash but are actively looking and WILL be buying something in the next week.
Remind him you have a lot of travelling to do and that the most you can go to is £3800 and that that is a genuine offer. Leave the ball in his court and stand firm.
If he waits over a week and then calls tell him your offer is £3500 lol!!

yeah i know, i checked on direct.gov.uk . told him the same thing and he said just get it changed by the dvla but i said i dont think they will change the 'category' of the van to car. i know they do changes but i doubt they would hange this....
left the ball in his court, told him i wont go above 3800 and to give me a call if he wanted to sell.
