I had to share this advert I just came across! I'm sure everybody can agree and empathise with the seller.

    We've all felt like it haven't we! I would actually be very tempted to snap that Citroén up come payday if it were not for the facts that:

    1. I don't have a driveway
    2. I don't have the skills to repair it myself
    3. I would have no use for it
    4. I hate Citroén almost as much as Vauxhall

    Still, a good bargain for someone that has the above (and could stand owning a Citroén).

    welcome to test drive it locally over a short distance at your own risk.

    Clearly the seller is actually braindead, it is illegal to drive it on the road and he is inviting people to test drive a motor illegally which in itself is a crime he can be done for as he is the registered owner and is giving permission to do so.

    Sounds to me like the seller is as big a bell end as the timewasters he talks about.

    It's Buckie - you could drive a car with beer bottles falling out of the windows and the police couldn't care less.

    Besides, there are areas where houses are situated far off-road so it could be on one of those with country lanes which could be used for test-drive purposes.

    A Citroen is something I've never owned, despite seeming to have had, a few brands that are a complete anathema the Ford loving community, in between Fords.

    Is Buckie the Moray equivalent of say, Moss Side?

    No, Ronnie Pickering's is on a 05 plate, that's a 52

    Thanks for that, might actually buy it now, knowing I won't get filled in during a spontaneous bare knuckle fight
