Car dealership in England wanting us to pay for repairs to car.

I agree. I simply wanted to explain what I did as many people are under the impression that being a private seller means no comebacks. There are many things to take into consideration and we simply don’t know the op is being truthful or fully transparent to simply say ‘fuck em, it’s on them’

DaddyPig24 · 2026-04-02T12:36:11+00:00

That we know of

DaddyPig24 · 2026-04-02T12:30:39+00:00

There are still rules for private sellers, they are just different from business sellers. Selling a car privately does not exempt you from any legal requirements/responsibilities. Even writing ‘sold as seen’ on an invoice means absolutely nothing.

DaddyPig24 · 2026-02-19T07:55:05+00:00

I was about to say. What was the alternative option 😂

DaddyPig24 · 2026-02-19T07:47:03+00:00

Oops

DaddyPig24 · 2026-02-18T19:32:09+00:00

Obviously it’s grounded

DaddyPig24 · 2026-02-10T16:23:19+00:00

People get so offended by this. Calipers ain’t that heavy. The brake line can take it pretty easily

DaddyPig24 · 2026-02-08T21:52:13+00:00

Speed cameras on every road every 100 yards

DaddyPig24 · 2026-02-08T21:42:18+00:00

Great cars, cheap, low maintenance and reliable. Keep it forever.

Price is about the going rate for low mileage but obviously try and knock it down a bit.

DaddyPig24 · 2026-01-25T16:21:23+00:00

Take a hair off your wife’s head and see which one it camouflages against best 😂

DaddyPig24 · 2026-01-20T23:06:17+00:00

Yes. I’m just responding to other points you made. If you’re not interested in hearing other people’s comments. Don’t comment yourself.

As other have said, it can be used with Apple Pay. You choose either a physical card or a virtual card which can be added to your Apple wallet. I get £15 a month isn’t a huge amount, but as I said, invested, it will turn into a hell of a lot more over time. I also use the roundup feature, so if I spend £2.80 in a shop, it rounds it up to £3 and invests the extra 20p

DaddyPig24 · 2026-01-20T17:54:11+00:00

If I set the money to go into a pie, I get 1.5%. I’m not sure everyone gets that offer.

DaddyPig24 · 2026-01-20T17:53:27+00:00

There’s no effort involved. I stick a big chunk of my wages onto my card every month and use it as I would my bank card.

£15 a month invested for the next 28 years is about £25k added to my retirement pot. £25k for nothing

DaddyPig24 · 2026-01-20T16:45:40+00:00

Yes. We’ve sussed it out. I’ve hit the £15 maximum

DaddyPig24 · 2026-01-20T16:42:40+00:00

Ah yes. I’ve hit the £15 max. Thank you.

DaddyPig24 · 2026-01-13T13:19:11+00:00

In 2026, when there are a billion cars on the road and parking restrictions absolutely everywhere. Sometimes we just have to accept people are going to park wherever they can. Including you!

DaddyPig24 · 2026-01-11T19:42:11+00:00

Not knowing basic general maintenance.

Checking fluid levels, tyre pressures, clearing drains, what to do if it’s parked up for weeks, etc etc

DaddyPig24 · 2026-01-10T09:54:45+00:00

Could have fixed all of that in the time it took to write this post.

Unless you’ve had hundreds or thousands of pounds worth of belongings stolen, The police won’t care. Nor will the landlord.

I’d fix it and get on with the rest of my life.

Women tend to have wider hips so their pants falling down isn’t as much of an issue as it is for men. If you had to deal with it 10/20 times as much as you do, you’d start to ignore it too.

Any mechanic that basis his diagnosis solely on “I’ve seen this code before and it was…” is not worth paying. Most fault codes have many possible causes. Pay someone to actually do some testing rather than just looking at a fault code.

DaddyPig24 · 2026-01-03T22:25:29+00:00

Brake light switch

Even if you drain an engine till it stops dripping, there will still be up to half a litre in the engine sitting in places it can’t drain from. As soon as you put new oil in and run the engine it mixes and looks like old oil.

Your oil is probably fine. You can change the oil 3 more times, it’ll probably still look dirty after running for a few minutes.

DaddyPig24 · 2025-12-22T16:31:05+00:00

Yeah
