Selling a car on Trade Me
Hi , we have a car for sale . A person looks the car over and asks for a test drive said he would leave his car as security. He returns about an hour later and said the paintwork is not good enough. While i have learn't don't trust anyone and accompany everyone on a test drive
Do you think this guy is breaking any Trademe rules or and legal issues?

Gary-NZStocked Community SuperuserI think you answered your own question. The guy asked to take your car for a test drive and leave another car as security, you said ok. You made the agreement with him without any further terms. There are some things to do when offering test drives to give you some protection.
Go over the car in detail with the buyer before discussing a test drive. No point going for a test drive if the paint is not what the buyer thought as a drive won't fix that and there is no need to waste everyones time.
Have a look through Trademe's Selling a car guides.
Always go with your car on a test drive.
Sight and photograph the buyers drivers license.
If your insurance doesn't cover it, check the buyer has appropriate insurance.
Always go with your car on a test drive.

If you see this post...
Unable to list item. Very frustrating – Help - Trade Me
That seems to fix it for myself and others that have had the problem.
