Been to view a rioja red 110 CSW today, on an 06 plate in High Wycombe, being sold by Platinum Auto's which looks to be a professional outfit.
Conversations on the phone lead me to believe there was a showroom and a storage unit which turned out to be his mates house and the storage unit was his house!
The landy was exceptionally clean, too clean! Brand new carpets which were glued to the floor and brand new seats. New bits and pieces bolted on here and there and a rather suspect looking receipt for a recent service.
Travelled up from chichester to view it and it wouldn't start, I could hear it sucking in air whilst he was cranking it - he insisted it was just because he couldn't find the choke :doh:
Him and his pals bump started it and I entertained them as well as being curious as to how it drove and took it round the block - where it near enough stalled on most hills - the biggest of which I had to use low range (which had to be held in otherwise it just popped out) to get up the hill!
Just a warning to anyone looking out for one - its a bag of poop but looks very nice and is up for £11,995 - Don't waste yer bloody time and money on this one!
