Well and truly "had" last week. Dealer knocked on door "Is your 'van for sale?" etc etc etc. Sent me indoors for a rag so he could "check the oil" but realised too late that he must have loosened a plug. Engine sounded really ropey and he knocked £500 off his offer (which I accepted). I still might have had the last laugh - my local mechanic reckoned the suspension and steering will both need serious work soon.

So you parked it and it sounded ok. Next time this total stranger starts it and it's misfiring?
You certainly were 'had.'
