    Just went all the way downstairs for the afternoon project planning session. After a few minutes, it was established that we'd managed to plan everything this morning, so I had to come all the way back upstairs again

      Well that went well. When I had to tell them that this was my 2nd interview they plaintively asked 'do we have a chance?'.

      I think I'll cancel that 3rd interview tomorrow.

All the ones online can be found when you hit google cache being up for sale back in early October at the same price. The retail and trade prices seem to differ by 5k on a £12k car (Forecourt price £12k, glass's says £10-11k, trade in £7-8k).

        I don't mind paying £10k for a car knowing that as I drive it off the forecourt I lose £3k. I don't want to pay £12k knowing that its worth a mere £7k on trade in. I'm a contractor but I'm not an idiot...
        Problem probably solved. Our local Vauxhall dealer has just got new stock in and hopefully its what she wants. The area parts manager has had a word with the dealer's sales manager prior to my wife calling in at 2:30....

        I'm not party to any of this at the moment but as we don't know what the stock is or the price I really don't know anything about anything.

            Hopefully no nightmare gigs?

            Btw what happened to the direct contact one?

            Keep your options open and go to the third, anything can happen, best to have 3 options that none at all.
