Aye, that would be my Mig on eBay - and it turns out it was a messer who won it!  Getting tired of ebay now, every time I try to sell something on there, always end up being inundated by absolute t1ts...  >:(  The second the auction ended, he e-mailed me to say that he wouldn't be paying the £100 deposit, nor completing the sale, as he had been made redundant!  But he had no answer when I asked him why he didn't let me know sooner...  He hadn't even viewed the car. 

Cheers for the nice comments anyway boys and girls  :)  Oh, and in his defence, I can attest to the fact that Mr B can indeed drive a car with 3 pedals - he's driven this one before!  ;)

My old advert in the "For Sale" section on here has long expired, so I've updated it with a new ad:

I hate ar##holes like that on ebay. You bid to buy not think about it, I really think they should be fined to at least cover the costs incurred and time wasted.

If I could I would have bought it myself Damon but with no work its just not possible mate,  :'(  :'(  :'(

I agree - it costs £10 to list it, not to mention all the time to take decent photo's etc etc  >:(  Still well fuming!

No worries pal - fingers crossed you get back on your feet soon again matey  :y
