User Story: Tom Bought a Used Motorcycle Directly From the Owner

Tom had a tight budget and wanted a reliable bike for weekend rides around the Scottish Highlands. On FromOwner.co.uk he filtered Motorcycles by engine size, mileage, and location, then saved a search for alerts. Within days he spotted a well maintained model listed by a private owner in his area.

He liked that FromOwner focuses on direct owner to owner listings. The description was honest, the photos were clear, and the seller quickly answered questions about service history and tyres. They agreed to meet in a public car park and the seller brought the service book and recent MOT details. Tom checked the VIN, inspected the chain and brakes, and took a short test ride after showing his insurance.

The chat thread kept everything organised. They agreed a fair price and completed a simple sale note. Tom transferred the funds and rode home on his new bike, confident that he had avoided dealer fees and unnecessary upsells.
