That VW UP looks very much like the 59 plate Daihatsu Sirion that I bought in 2015... I think I paid £750 then... but when it came to parts, it was a mare, as Daihatsu had pulled out of Europe just after making that model, which was a real shame.

I bought a high spec one with warranty and I'm first UK owner, I've already been under it with Lanoguard etc and secondary cats replaced with stainless steel through pipes. Having driven it now for a couple of months I find it just an awesome car, and that V6 can shift even though it is a two tonne van. Definitely thirsty, drive one if you get a chance though!!

Just thinking & you mentioned it Lee regarding the VW up , with the car besn provisional you if possible should have gone to enquires etc & said if owner or dealer garage won't accept the bid would they if i offered £200 above what they did. Basically same as gazumping. You also i thought should have bid on the 14 plate Kia Sportage which miles weren't too high & only £1900.& the 13 plate Renault Clio at £1700 . Obviously i know you have both isn't the kia already sold though. The Sasb 93 sportwagon couldn't see the front but an 07 possibly a facelift, if it is it looked just like my 09 sportwagon Vector CTDI even same colour & wheels. Bet that had been traded in as the cost of the 2.0T engine is outrageous its £700 or so.
