Basically, and as soon as someone puts something interesting or different it gets ripped by everyone.
Everyone has a mate that can do a job better and cheaper than everyone else too.

They all drive like new. Unless a car is just about to get scrapped and literally has wheels falling off. People will say it drives fine, no knocks or bangs.

You owned a Defender therefore your ability to decide if something drives like shit or not has been revoked

Defenders look cool
If you buy a cheap car, expect to fix things.

Wouldn't fancy that, at least the V6 is half approaching a nice thing to drive. Should have a turbo one really and no work to do but they're still strong money. That one would be a free car if I sold the roof control box.

I had then when I was selling my type R. Up for £2500 which was a good price and even with "NO SWAPS CASH ONLY" I was getting some deluded knuckle dragging cunts offering me 318 e46 bmw convertibles, a is200 pick up and then some people saying I'll give you £1700 cash tonight - FUCK OFF
When you say no you just get a string of abuse. One lad was going to come see it but never got back to me so I assumed he wasnt bothering & someone came all the way from Kent off the owners club to view it left a deposit on the car to hold it and bought it. While this was going on I messaged the time waster from Preston to say deposit taken and about 2 hours later I got a message to say he had driven all the way to my house looked around the car on the drive while I was in the house and drove home. He was going to comeback with a mate later on that night and take it
I swiftly locked the car up at a different location told the lad its sold so not to bother (got bombarded with abuse) and went out on the piss Guy from Kent arrived loved it gave full asking and off he went.
Facebook groups just allow the retards of society to communicate sadly.
