Thanks for your thoughts. I basically agree with you. You put your finger on it in saying
>>... or getting something I desperately wanted and couldn't get close to home.
It is possible I could get it closer to home. But it would have to be significantly closer to home to make much difference. In some ways, going to London to get a vehicle is even worse than going to London. Manchester might be a little better. The one in Cumbria was definitely better. But even that is considerably more awkward than Edinburgh or Glasgow.
But not much comes up in Scotland - or, for that matter, north of Manchester.
