    If he took it in as p/x he is a dealer. That makes it worse. At least the ad is gone. I wonder if he changes the alloys and re-tries to sell again soon....
    In fairness, I know plenty of private sellers who have taken in a P/X+cash their way. Nothing illegal about a member of public taking in a P/X and then selling it.

    Can the motor check companies not be informed so at least its on their website if any potential buyer does a check it'll be highlighted?

    And also at its next NCT would the mileage diff be flagged? If not it should be.

    Would there be any point in making a "clocked" thread in the motors forum, as I think it would be as usefull if not more?

    Not unless there was documented proof on each occasion. Otherwise you would be looking at libel cases.

    Heard a good one this evening involving someone I know.

    Girl got rear ended by taxi, taxi driver got out to talk to the girl. She admitted liability.

    He went back to his car to get a pen and paper and she drove off.

    A bit puzzled by this the taxi driver reported it to the police immediately and gave a statement.

    Two hours later the girl went to the police and submitted a report claiming the driver drove off, had no insurance and she had a witness.

    Given the taxi driver had already been in and submitted a slightly different report the Police weren't too happy.

    She is now getting stung for submitting a false report and wasting police time as is her father.

    Why would she admit liability?

    Given what she did after that it leads me to think she is an IDIOT

    I imagine she panicked, went home, got 'put straight' by her father and then decided the best way to correct it was to make a false police report

    Definitely panicked. But jaysis, some people need to take a deep breath in these situations and just chill.

    I once towed a car from Stephens green to offaly. Was going 80mph on the M7 when i forgot my speed. I slowed down and looked out my side window to see the car i was towing alongside me. Absolutely shít myself.
