United, ref the hire/rental car,

does the base give an invoice when the hirer pays?

does the base make sure the hirer gets a regular decent contract run to cover the rentals (as many bases do)?

Hi chaps,

Was scouring the local ads for various cars and came across this : http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/ ... ?logcode=p

Obviously the car is super local to me, and would make things a zillion times easier to get on the road, would it be a terrible buy assuming he's correct in saying excellent condition?
Cheers

That high eh ^^, what would be your reasons?
I know that people say the skoda/VW's are better taxi's, but i see a ton of Astra's/Focus's around my area so they surely aren't that bad?

Just seemed like it might be good way to get on the road quick, since its already set up and plated for Durham.

Cheers
