I'll be coming in my Astra now, it's been up for sale for 3 months and I'm getting silly offers like £6000 and people that offer a decent value let me down, so it stays and I'll play around with it some more and PX for the new VXR if it turns out to be ok next year.

To be honest, if a car doesn't sell, its either valued wrong, a bad advert or a **** car (which its not). Do as suggested above, remove the ad, evaluate the price, then advertise it again with a better description, if that was the problem, and new photos.

I'm having problems but the other way round, I could probably sell my Fiesta in a week because its a 'OMG CHEAP TAX GREAT FIRST CAR LOL', I can't find anything that hasn't been owned by a total prune or something that has been looked after. Think I need to lower my expectations/standards or up my budget.

You're in a bit of a budget black hole sadly. Might be best to hang on another year till insurance reaches a sane price.

I've scaled back on what I'm looking for and looking for something a bit less potent, trouble is finding a car that's been looked after and cared for. I don't mind if it isn't a massive upgrade to what I have, somthing a bit newer and with more power will keep me happy until I can insure what I really want. I've had the Fiesta 18 months now, it's outstayed it's welcome and I hope I don't have to bring it to the meet

It's looking more and more likely that you will though

Either that, or walking

Janesy B · 29 Jul 2010 at 11:13

I'm sure Howard is fed up of me pitching up to his house early in the morning with me shouting 'I CAN HAZ LIFT PLZ?'

ci_newman · 29 Jul 2010 at 11:54

You two turn up together so often that someone could be forgiven for assuming that you're together

Howard · 29 Jul 2010 at 12:06

He'd better turn up to this separately in that case, can't have that rumour mill spinning too fast :eek:

Clown · 29 Jul 2010 at 12:17

Nah, he only wants short back and sides.

I'm sure that's a euphemism for something a lot more sinister and unsavoury.

Maccy · 29 Jul 2010 at 13:07

First OcUK couple?

InvaderGIR · 29 Jul 2010 at 13:10

Nope, there are loads of people that have met due to the forums and are couples.

Howard · 29 Jul 2010 at 13:12

And for the record, we aren't one of them

Yeah, you two met outside of the forums

In Motors though? And have you used your underwater camera yet?!

Howard said:

Lies!

InvaderGIR · 29 Jul 2010 at 13:18

Ahahaha, that camera is somewhere in my room. I've not had a chance/reason to use it yet to be honest.

And yes, in Motors, for example, Lopez and LostKat.

Lets do a speed dating meet, we'll need way more girls...

Maccy · 29 Jul 2010 at 13:26

Well, we have MisChief for a start!

ci_newman · 29 Jul 2010 at 13:26

Lets do a speed dating meet, we'll need at least some girls...

Edited for truth.. I don't think there are any regular female posters over here any more.

Not anymore at this rate

InvaderGIR · 29 Jul 2010 at 13:29

I assumed MisChief was a guy.
