Wife is not sure on this to be honest (she loved the car and still talks about it...) - will have a chat over some beers tonight and if it's not sold will arrange to have a look - then see what happens.

Cheers

I remembered the name of the garage and it was still on their website so I rang him early this morning.
He confirmed it was sold!

Wasn't meant to be I suppose

Not a head-turner then?

I now have this image of people watching it go by, not interested enough to move their heads but just curious enough to follow the car with their eyes

Looks like someone out to make a quick buck. Sold in Batley and new owner in Batley. Zero feedback on eBay and only been a member for a month.

Buys a car at £1,495 (assumption) and two months later is selling it for £1,895, but according to the ad has "just had the viechle fully serviced Inc gearbox and filter". A shame that gninnam didn't manage to acquire it back in July.

So the S-tronic gearbox is probably now full of red ATF and the sump will be stuck on with bathroom silicone then

My poor car
Too late now, at £1500, I was very tempted but, back after a short time so don't trust whoever bought it that the work that was required has been done correctly.
Based on the above, I'm out
