Another aspect is that i am so grateful William was the one to meet the seller - who was pretty shirty even over the phone when i rang him to pull out of the sale and had to point out just a few of the problems that William had identified on this supposedly "fault free" car. William was my perfect shield against an aggressive deceptive seller - i cannot thank him enough.”
