who can look on a car for me in Thirsk North Yorkshire

Post by GuidoDieringer »

I need a little help,

Who can look on a Convertible in Thirsk?
I found this one on Ebay for 4000 GBP.
I´ll come over from Germany to collect it if the car is in
the condition the seller is telling.
I´m not sure because the pictures I got are not enough.
Who lives in this area and can help?

Thank you

Guido

I have discussed with the seller, that somebody can look on the car before I pay it.
Unfortunately it isn´t easy for me as a German MM enthusiast to get a Morris Minor.
There are not many cars in Germany available.
So I have to try my luck.........
The car is located in Thirsk.
Maybe somebody knows this car??

I do have an agreement that the seller will relist the car, if I´m not fast enough!!!
I will pay the car now and collect it end of December, but only if it´s ok.

Well, the man is a salesman thats for sure.
Photos of the engine bay and underneath would be useful.
Reason for sale?

He implies in the first paragraph that he didnt know the "buyer" was in Germany?

Second time round it must have sold outside ebay. Vendor says today, and I quote, 'first person to actually view the car loved it, and paid £4600'!
All that soapy sales talk must have paid off............! Good for him!
