What price my fairlane?
I WOULD think a dealer would give you about $7000 as a trade-in. As a private sale you might get a little more, say $10,000. It sounds a nice car that would be more appealing as a private sale.

Thanks but no tanks
IT WOULD seem the tank tester is at fault, but you need to establish what the problem is before you can lay blame. It's normal for the LPG tank to be removed from the car to be tested, so I would suggest there has been some mistake made when the tank was reinstalled. If the tester isn't co-operative, take the car to an LPG specialist and have them find the cause of the problem. If it can be shown the tester caused it, send him the bill for the repairs.
