This is a multi rant in one...I need to replace my (old but perfectly good) car due to ULEZ. Found a car online I really like, it's in the Midlands (I'm in London).
The garage selling it (not a main dealer or anything) is only open til 4 tomorrow, my son's got my car til at least 3 - and it's a 4 hour drive - so I can't go then. They're shut on Sunday and so then next time I could realistically go is next Sat, chances are it'll be sold by then (as it's a nice car at a decent price).
What makes it more annoying is my Ex and his family live at most 30 mins from the garage, he and his dad are very knowledgeable about cars so if we were still together I could have sent them to give it the once over. However because my Ex is an idiot who couldn't be faithful, we're no longer together and that's not an option.
Edited to add - I did look at going up by train, but the nearest station is about 10 miles away from the garage, so that's out as well.
