made me feel sick!

i have just seen my old zs 180, the car that i looked after no matter what the cost, the car that never had a spec of dust on it, the car that i had so many good times in and now....what a state. doesnt look like its been cleaned since i sold it a year a go, its honestally discusting and made me feel bad, marks all up the side, wheels curbed to peices, interior looks like somebody has been living in there, covered in bird sh1t.

i cant beleive some people, how can somebody treat such a great car so badly, and neglect it the way they have.

here is what it was when i sold it.

That's where I'm glad the 3 I've sold have gone to enthusiasts.

Never mind mate .... Next time, you could always offer to buy it back.

Some people would treat a brand new £30k Audi like that, a 6 year old "banger" Rover* stands no hope. Sadly.





*What they think, not me!

At least it is not written off! When you sell a car do you vet them to make sure they are worthy? No! When you sold it you turned your back on it and moved on. That's life.
