  • Parking at work charges 1 Apr 2019 (Forum)
    Nottingham apparently levies a charge of something like £400 per year per parking space on companies with 10 or more parking bays used by workers. They use the money raised to finance public transport, trams and cleaner buses. Birmingham is introducing a London style pollution charge in the city centre all in the name of cleaner air, the powers that be want us all on public transport.

  • Today's auction cars 22 Jan 2003 (Forum)
    Also, for a soon to be one year old Previa, in a crap colour, with no V5, £15900 sounds like a fantastic deal for the seller. If the finance company was selling it because it was a repo, then doubly so.
  • missing logbooks 4 Jan 2002 (Forum)
    Been to the local auctions tonight, looking for a cheap car. Seems to be rather a lot that are put through by finance companies without documents - particularly logbooks. But what are the implications of that? Firstly in terms of the car's history (are they simple reposessions?) and then practically; how easy is it to get a new logbook.

  • Any - Secured Car Loans 24 Dec 2022 (Forum)
    They want no risk of potentially damaging it on the way home before the deal is done. My main concern is making sure I don’t buy a car that has finance secured against it. The seller is advising both he and the dealer will be able to confirm it was paid for by bank transfer, so I think that rules out the risk he has finance through the dealer.
