Andrew finally got a call today to say that the plates had been changed on the car and that they had another option for him at the garage as well. Excitedly he went to pick it up after language school hoping to surprise me.
The other option was presented first - a older focus for not a very good price. Easily rejected.
He was then taken over to 'our car'. He looked at the 'new' plate and thought, "that's not our car!" He looked inside the boot (trunk) and saw scratches which he hadn't seen before and looking inside he saw a cigarette burn which definitely hadn't been there before. He explained that it wasn't the car he had bought and he was assured that it was. Insisting that it wasn't he asked for his money back. Again he was assured that it was our car.
Eventually he was taken into the office where they admitted that they didn't have all the necessary papers to change the plates on the car we had bought and so it couldn't be done.
So now we're back to square one (where that car is concerned). We have no fancy courtesy car and have to start looking again. Please pray that we find the right one soon. God is good and His timing is perfect!
