Ah well. Landy doesn't like her and she knows it.
I took her around the country lanes with the top off (the Landy. Not the wife).
Some random bramble hanging out of a hedgerow got the wife just as shed stated "it's a smelly old thing isn't it"... wham!.

8 years later she still blames the car?

Tried this with a motorhome once. Last bid was 2.5k way under value. The guy didn't turn up (thank goodness).
I sold it privately for 7.5k
Maybe if i had raised the staring price instead of 99p? Anyway it scared the he'll out of me.

99p isn't for the faint hearted hence setting a reserve. Your motor looks well smart now and would attract the punters at 3K no problem.

Don’t spend anything more on it, just sell it. There’s no point or added value in tinkering with painting etc. Value is in the eye of the buyers; it’s a proper landy and that’s how to sell it, let someone else spend another £4K on sprucing it up.
