Anyone know if Rob Ingleby (sp?) is still going? I know his web site is still up and around but as it does not seem to get updated that often I was not sure if he is still going. Also wasn’t there another Matt (not me) on here who was doing something similar?

Anyone know how much they charge for a one off inspection, i.e. I find the car and they go and inspect it?

Thanks, but I have seen a car I like the look of but don't trust myself to be able to make a sound judgement so fancy getting an expert to look it over for me.

It's this one, quite like the look of it but given the price I would want it properly checked over.

You might want to try Karl Jordan. He's in the Midland somewhere, but I'm sure will travel down.

I used him to buy my Cerbera and he was spot on with both the price the car was worth and what it needed to make it perfect.

Send me an e-mail if you want his contact details.

Rob charged me about £200 to inspect a car in Kent last year. I was very happy with the service, and with the car which I bought.

Rob's mobile number is on his website. Give him a call, he's very friendly and helpful.

Edenbridge isn't THAT far from Crawley so why not take it to Austec and let them have a look at it? Not much they don't know in my experience and I know they'll do an inspection for you.

Rob will do a fine job but the others are right - Austec is on the doorstep & will be able to get it up in the air to have a good look at it.

They may even know the car already.

I asked the same question last year and James is the only person who's reputation came out 100% intact based on the online/offline responses I got. I bought from James and have been satisfied with my Tiv and still phone him to pick his brains now and then , Top bloke!
He may well be prepared to travel to kent and check out the car you've seen, if not give him the spec and he can find you one.
