3000M in Belgium needs saving

[english2]

I just spotted this 3000M for sale in Belgium, which clearly needs some work, but it's going pretty cheap if anyone's interested : http://hooniverse.com/2013/02/03/weekend-edition-1...

(BTW I have absolutely no link with the seller)

It was Ebay'd a few weeks ago in the Midlands, it got 5 bids up to £2400, but didn't reach Reserve.

I remember it because it has a fibreglass fairing under the spare wheel for the fan? I'd never seen that before.

I'm on the look out for an "M" Project so have just dropped the seller a quick note. Will revert back with any reply chaps

[gmw9666]

well that didnt take long = chap bought it and collected from the midlands a sunday or so ago.

He suffenly got more office work going on so now needs to sell on

The car is in Belgium (about 100 miles from Calais)

Anyone bought a car from Europe before?..........is it a pain?

I've bought plenty in France, but never in Belgium. If the seller speaks English obviously that's no problem. If he speaks French, I can help. If he speaks Flemish, then you'll have to find someone else.

I would imagine that he hasn't yet sent any paperwork to the DVLA, so that should be ok. Otherwise it's just a case of going over there with a sheaf of euros and a trailer...

Buying from Belgium this early on will be simple. It won't be registered there yet.

I can't see language being a problem if he is a Wallonie and speaks Flemish, they generally speak English as well

Luc, welcome to the forum. Nice 3000S. Reminds me of the black/tan one John Wadman stood up on its tailpipes at the Toronto Auto Show.

Best,
B.
