Just keeping one of those on the roads these days is frought with big bills at this age.

And there is an excuse for general bad spelling but not being able to spell your own county/address is as inexcusable as not being able to spell your own name.

contact SHAF, mmmmmm perhaps not.

if you are placing an ad, for a car or anything, you at the very least put your proper name, and dislexic or not can spell the county you live in.

the description is hardly the best ive seen, tax, mot, mileage.

would be skipping this one personally.

Its not just high wycombe, and it comes from bitter experience. Could be a great car but it'll get tarnished by the rep of the location.

Wycombe is so, so wrong. That one looks clean but it's had the 'innit, bruv' treatment.
