So I was selling my car, about 11 year old clio. Was hoping to get around £1200 for it as low mileage & good condition. We just paid £300 for MOT, but engine light still left on because of heater plugs need changing. Which only cost about £20 to change.
So my step dad offers to sell it for us, cos he loves this kind of thing. So we said, anything u spend u can take out of final sale.
A week later after insuring it for the second time, he decided he wants to buy it for my brother (who's an idiot & will wreck it) & is only willing to pay £700 for it. Now I couldn't say no because he's already sanded down the paint on it ready to re-do & then started listing other problems on it.. Scratches on wheels, lights need buffing. I don't care about these things & would've been willing to go down to £1000 if those things were gonna hold me back from selling. But to be knocked down to £700 saying he'll have to spend £250 to have it painted!!! It wasn't even that bad!! Grrrr I'm so annoyed, but AIBU???
