If money is tight then you best work extra hard in seeking advice - check with the citizen advice if they do a guide and ask your insurance company if your policy offers any cover against possible claims,cause fraudsters are very good at there job and always look for an area of vulnerability.

Also tell the seller you'll want to take a clear photo of him, inside and outside the vehicle for sale, in case the vehicle develops any police interest of any form.

He probably just wants a change, you just don't know.

I imagine its a genuine deal he is proposing, i have many times over the years taken a price drop on cars i have swapped with purely because i cant be hastled with the majority of time wasters when selling a car... I feel he has a genuine reason and you say he is offering any inspection...
He's willing to come to you.. Ide take a chance on it myself :wink:

Ok. Well I asked him for the aa inspection and engine cert on tues night. He replied saying that's fine but at work. So I chased him yesterday afternoon. I can see he read message. Then I chased again this morning, again I can see he read the message. But I have had no reply.

What I don't understand is if I didn't ask these questions and he travelled all the way here expecting a swap then I decided not to do it based on whatever reason, how is he exactly trying to con me?

I really dont think he is, but i do think by now avoiding you/blocking your messages he has thought more of it and got cold feet... And joined the rest of the population of time wasters... :fighting:
