I know, i know....sorry lol
Ok, on the finance thing... spent a decent amount of time talking to my m8 who works for a bank on better ways to pay the car. Namely among such is a loan, which is cheaper and would also let me incorporate my credit card thing and be paid off pretty quick...so think i'll be looking down that route..so thats fine.
In terms of the car... I know it sounds stupid but... I want some sort of comeback... so kinda (even tho probably dearer) would like a main dealer of some sort and some sort of warranty. Preferrably Alex Noble n' son Edinburgh but anyone would do, even another company. With little 'dealers' i don't see much of a come back if somesthing up. Whereas (done it before) main dealers usually are a bit more helpful-ish. I may be being hugely paranoid but... well, I don't have a lot of techy know how so...if something goes i'd like a bit of a warranty somewhere.
I suppose I could buy private and then buy a warranty? Anyone ever done that and got a decent one? I hear good things about that 'quentin wilson' warranty direct thingy?
*And yep Tranquill I did see that one, but obviously a bit worried due to it being a 'wee dealer'. How much d'you think I could get that down to, cos i would not want to pay £12K, I'd want a 'bit' off that to make it a bit more managable. About £11 really is most im wanting to pay..and then take the 2K for my car off it.
* EDIT - Sorry just looked at the site...new cars etc too, maybe not such a 'wee' dealer lol*
Cheers for the help again...and the patience!
If I have to buy from a dealer I'd FAR rather deal with a 'wee' dealer than an Arnold Clark type affair.
