What is your problem Prideaux???
Whatever it is get over it and move on buddy.
Everytime I post on here you have to make derogatory comments. This is supposed to be an open forum for everyone and not just your personal vendeta forum....

Tobsam it was me who asked via eBay not Prideaux, as I have repeatedly tried to explain. The enquiry was well before the subject came up on here.
I think paranoia is setting in.

Good idea. Well done, and next time please don't jump to conclusions Miss Marple.

Unfortunately you have a very, let us say distinctive, way of stringìng sentences together and ummm spelling and that is exactly the same in your emails to me as well. It is unmistakable and so obviously you.
Anyway if you want to carry on with this then that is up to you but I have finished. I have better things to be doing with my time and yes I do now have another TVR to replace my Grantura.

Well done......Mr. Holmes!
Best,

Miss Marple and Mr Holmes.....WOW I really must change my career to being a full time sleuth.

That was meant as a joke! Please do not take yourself so seriously!!

Yep same. Had enough, it's descended into farce. Let's hope Tobsam can reflect and find some serenity in the act of wisdom,

What did you end up getting to replace the Grannie? did you get another classic or go for a more modern car, and how do the 2 compare?

Thats a typing error - it should read 39 minutes

For that sort of cash you would have thought it had had a good overhaul inc a chassis rebuild , after all those years the bonded shell chassis etc must be cause of some concern it would be to me for sure , it looks like a re spray and painted wheels and still got 30year old tyres on for Christ sake. Would need a very good look at before parting with that much cash for sure. Richard

Its on the road and running around…thats a good thing..It spent many moons locked away in a garage….It won't sell at auction for anywhere near the estimate and eventually someone who really wants it will end up with it..

As usual the usual suspects will talk it up and down and round and round but won't buy and it will move on for a time between those who want to make a small bitty out of it…

At least the last owners put something back into it...
