You can't expect me to brilliant suggestions AND to have thought them through. People just ask too much of me sometimes 1 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
giorgetto 37 Report post Posted February 27 Lucas, For goodness sake man, its been 5 days! Don't keep us in suspense! Did you get through to the factory? Did they decide to buy it? At least say it has gone to an enthusiast to be sympathetically restored.......... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LJR 74 Report post Posted March 1 Rang the factory multiple times was told to speak to a specific person who never answered the phone. Left him two voicemails with my contact details and never heard a word back so on Sunday someone who tells me they have restored many Esprits is coming from Lancashire to collect it. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LJR 74 Report post Posted March 4 Well it did and then they contacted me an hour before collection to say they had a family emergency and were going home, haven't heard from them since. 1 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TAR 340 Report post Posted March 4 What a waste of your time!. I had a similar thing with someone buying a motorbike from me. They even called me to say they were on their way. When they didn't arrive, I called and they didn't answer. That was the last I ever heard from them. Why do people do this? I hope you find a genuine buyer soon. Quote It's getting there......
