Taken on board mate. The only issue I have with selling privately is that I do really need to have a car. It gets me to work for a start, I used to hitch a ride with my dad while he went to his job but now we work entirely different hours so that doesn't work. I could organise something for a week, but going weeks/months without a car while I'm inbetween selling mine and finding something worthy of replacing it will be difficult.

In my mind screwing a half decent deal on a car that I like will be a good compromise. I definitely won't be taking $6k for my car and signing up for $21k on this one though.
