Basically, I saw an advert on a retro Facebook page and thought fuck it, I’m having that.
The owner said he would drive it from Sukhothai to Songkhla for me and though I said something along the lines of ‘don’t you fucking dare, I’ll pay for transport’ - he decided the transport cash could save him a few quid, bullshitted me and paid someone to drive it the 1,400km Journey. The car made it, just. Some repairs required but nothing too serious.
So id paid a deposit and the next day I offered a little bit more leaving him 20k + whatever he paid the driver short of the original deal. As far as I’m concerned, I’d bought the car and he had no fucking right to do that. Anyway, it was all very civilized l and we both agreed on the outcome.
