Expert 5K+ Posts: 8443 Location: Perth Australia I still smell a rat with this Says he is listing it for a collector who doesnt have internet access (hard but not impossible to build a collection without internet) Says the collection has been going for 10 to 15 years (very short time to build a collection) And if the other cars are of this standard/callibur, I am pretty sure the guy has money and if he was liquidating a classic car collection, surely there would be an auction house and much fanfair involved And the website is still not active, but there is one with the same name, but its a .uk not a .com address As I said, it smells fishy to me If it aint then best of luck to any buyer jimntempe Posted 2014-05-02 8:02 PM (#439008 - in reply to #438935) Subject: Re: Have you rich blokes seen it yet?

Board Moderator & Exner Expert 10K+ Location: .Norfolk..Mafia.. ,England UK I can see where it sounds fishy, but he does note" BUT ANY SALES OR TRADES WILL BE DONE BETWEEN YOU AND HIM DIRECT, AT HIS HOME. I HAVE NO INVOLVEMENT IN THAT PART WHATSOEVER!" I surely wouldnt be parting with any cash via Bank transfer or any other way , Strictly Cash on site after checking the Cars over and paperwork.. Most cars seem to be High End Priced.. So he may well be keeping them all in his collection.
