The plan was to sell the current car, and buy something bigger and more powerful.
The market is currently over saturated, and I am really struggling to attract any attention, when there are some good deals to be had on the cars I want.
It may take a while till the day I sell, and then I won't even have a car to go round and see other ones for sale. My current insurance will technically cease, until being transfered to a new car, so there is even a problem of test drive. If I end up this route, I need some good buying advice.
The plan B could involve getting a good deal for a new car from that mythical old housewife, whilst in possession of the current one. This would mean one car is left without insurance, and it would be the old one - obviously I'd want to drive the new toy everywhere. SORN is a very tough but probably option (neighbour's drive), but wouldn't that eliminate almost all potential buyers, and prevent any test drive? 2 insurance policies on budget - 2x £700 full insurance would beat any purpose of buying another car.
Plan C is dealer PX, but so far it seems they will give a cheeky £50 off, rip me off for a failing car, and leave me in poverty. I am really not so keen as things stand at the moment.
BTW I'm 27 with no fault accidents, 7 years licence and 1 NCB (only started driving 2 years ago thanks to insurance costs)
