Look at this:
neither does the following. this was sent to me...  no need to comment
A woman rented a Citroen C4 in Budapest.
She drove from Budapest to Pécs.
Approximately 220km.
In 1st gear.
She thought it was automatic.
Attached is the insurance photo's of the engine and the bonnet.

It was probably in gear to start with and she's thinking, hmmm bit of a bumpy pullaway, or she might just be thinking, hmmm pink nail varnish or red today? |

I asked her what her reserve was, she said £5000, sent one back saying i would give her £4650, saying that the damage was more than minor. 30 mins later had a reply, yes was the answer. so if anyone wants it you would get it as low as that, maybe lower if you tried.
Dont want the car, just wanted to see how much lower she would go on her price... |
