As above really. I know some people have trade access and I'd much appreciate a quick check on a car I'm looking at.

Re: Anyone able to do a HPI check for me?
Nothing particularly interesting - I need a daily. I’m looking for a Mercedes C350E or a Passat GTE. Estates. Can’t decide which.
Bad time to buy a car. Not much on the market and high demand is sending prices up.
I originally just wanted a mile muncher for about 10k then it spiralled from there. It’s hard to find something that’s palatable that’s not diesel.

I have a few deluxe codes spare for https://www.rapidcarcheck.co.uk if you want them I can send them over?
Re: Anyone able to do a HPI check for me?
That would be much appreciated, but only if they will be of no use to you.

You could have £12k of Large Blancmange... https://specialistcars-stoke.co.uk/show ... esign-5dr/
Or an S5... https://specialistcars-stoke.co.uk/show ... matic-3dr/
Dealer is decent though. I have had a car from him and it was spotless even at 10 years old. He seems to have a few Audis kicking about.

Re: Anyone able to do a HPI check for me?
Yeah, S5 is great, but I want something I can put miles on and not care. I don't need another car that needs ridiculous amounts of TLC - have enough of those! Also, needs to be an Estate. This is an absolute requirement.
Don't think I could bring myself to own a Vauxhall. Not sure why, I just don't like them!

Re: Anyone able to do a HPI check for me?
Rather out of budget but there is a Seat estate:

It's also worth looking at Cazoo as they do home delivery and 7 day free returns.

Re: Anyone able to do a HPI check for me?
I do like those Cupras. That one's definitely out of budget, though. I'd go up to 18k for the right car.
I was quite tempted by a Skoda Octavia vRS when I thought they also had the same 300hp engine, but lost interest when I found out they didn't!
Yeah, Cazoo. It feels soooo wrong buying a car sight-unseen, but I get the concept. I'll have a look.
What's the deal at the moment travelling to see used cars. Presumably it's a no-no. Are dealers even open? They seem to be to some extent.

Re: Anyone able to do a HPI check for me?
You can't travel to test drive. You can't travel to do a private purchase at all. You can only travel to a dealer to collect a car you've already paid for so paperwork etc should all be done as much as possible before you get there. A lot of dealers are doing home delivery too. It's far better than hanging around for hours while they to and fro and make you sit though all their FCA and GAP insurance crap.
Re: Anyone able to do a HPI check for me?
I'm the same. I find Vauxhalls just feel different to every other car and I view Vauxhall owners as a slightly different breed. In their minds, they still own a 1991 Astra GTE.

Perhaps this C350e might be of interest. Dealer, Paul Noyce is a friend of mine who supplies most of the vehicles for the charity that I'm a director of.
