We’ve bought 2 cars from Edinburgh, which is around 500 miles from Chichester. The first, an old Audi A8 4.2 Quattro I documented here some years back. We flew from Southampton to Edinburgh early one morning, met the vendor in the car park at EDI and he drove us round the corner to his office Carrara where the car was. A quick look round, handed over the cash and drove back. The second, a few years later, was the A3 e-tron which as an ex Audi U.K. launch car was bought over the phone while in the lounge at LGW. It was only a year old with 6k miles on the clock, so relatively low risk. That one they delivered on a transporter, and I paid for it by internet banking the day before. So I’d second (or third) the suggestion to enjoy the trip, fly down, get the cat, meet up with family and drive back. Obviously Nicola won’t let you drive back via Manchester…
