I just don't like 'motor dealers' who have 100% feedback but have never sold a motor and even their buying history looks suss.

The tax man took it  :(

One of the airbags at the rear failed. Mercedes wanted £1100. An independent fixed it for about £600 ish.

Sometimes it's just the cap on the top of the strut which can be repaired for just ££s.

A little on the skinny side for my taste. But if she begged I suppose I'd have to oblige her.
