    Nice car but that in my view is very wishful thinking. I would have guessed at £15k but at £20k the buyer could buy a lot of cars probably a lot more desirable.

    The response I received: 'I have now decided to keep it as it's rarer than I thought.(Actually 1 of 16 made , only 10 in this specification, and mine is the only one made in Nocturne blue) To change my mind it would need to be a rather substantial very special offer which I doubt you would want to pay.If you have a particularly robust bank balance then let me know as the reserve was £20,0000. If you are in this area fine, if not no matter as I'd prefer to keep it.......Just try and find another'

    What an odd response. If he didn't know it was rare when he put it up for sale, then why did he think he could get £20k for it when the reserve was set? The tone of his response is rather condescending I thought. Did the VIN number get recorded?

    Yes, I didn't think it was a polite tone either. I've always been the same - I can't buy a car off someone I don't like ...... stupid i know!

    I had quite a long chat with the owner, he told me the reserve was £17,000.
