I know they changed the law about advertising your car for sale in the streets over here but that still goes on anyway,
I will have to look into that though

He assures me its 100 percent correct and not a new law but has been in place many years (he sold cars for a number of yrs in UK ).
If you think about it the law makes sense.....trading cars as a private sale avoids all the regulations and guarantees that a dealer/trader has to provide (even if just selling part time from home ) so its technically defrauding the buyer and taking away all the liability etc.
