His reputation was well deserved - my car came from him and he was truly superb.

A big loss to the McLaren second hand market I think.

(No, I don't know why he's closed)

Just see it on one of the FB groups.

Really shame, hope he is OK.

Ditto, bought mine from Alastair and it was a great experience, I was always planning on selling via him to, but I guess i just have to keep hold of it forever now.

Unless I’ve missed something, no idea.

His advertised stock has been low for weeks but didn’t see this coming.

Not bought from him but picked his brains on occasion, really helpful advice etc. Perhaps just had enough of it as a trade ?

Damn, one of the good guys.

Dealers with an impeccable reputation can be counted with the fingers of one hand.

Hopefully he’s just decided to retire.

I had a horrible feeling that might be the case,Alastair is such a classy guy it seems so out of character to close in such a manner,with all socials deleted immediately as well.
Whatever the circumstances,everything crossed for him.

So sorry to hear it.

UK PLC has a lot to answer for with all the regulation and worry of running a business these days

Hope he is well and all the best to him and his customers

It appears Google also says Scott Hardy is permanently closed too and the website doesn’t work.

Stock does appear to be thin on the ground.

All the best to all concerned

Have to agree, a really genuine fella. Best wishes to him and family.
