Why not buy one a bit closer, thats easier to get to but marginally more expensive. For the costs of travelling, you'd be better off just buying one thats closer.

Want a black one.
If I was to buy one, those are the exact mods i'd do to one.
Owner seems genuine.
Had water pump / timing belt done.
Fantastic service history.
That's what appeals to me with this one, plus the shell is mint.

Seriously mate, as I said...Stop here for a night, then I'll go with you. Then stop back here for a night, then a journey home refreshed!

Infact...Plane here, I'd get my mate to get you from Edin, then we'd drive you up! Then drive back down, and stay here. That's a SHIT LOT less.

It will cost a shed load to go and view the car anyway.
Oh, plus the fact that it is a tiny little island so will have a very high salt content whereby cars rust faster etc.
I wouldn't contemplate it, so if he spends big money to go and view a car that statistically is more likely to be a DOG then yes, I will piss my sides.
Happy?

Why? I was simply asking a question about the Isle. The car isn't a dog, he's been to shows before, and a friend off seatcupra.net has said the car is a minter.
I wouldn't think about going up if i knew the car was a shed.
