I'm not sure if many of you remember me on here (old username lewis_s), but back in 2010 I sold my Chimaera so I could fund my first house purchase.

I have just had an email from the guy I sold it to in Belgium, saying that he is selling it on again and if I knew anyone that wanted it as it will probably be coming back to England.

If it was next year I might have been able to find the money, but as things are at the moment I have no chance.

I want my old car back cry

Sorry for the random thread but I just wanted to vent.

Well I got an email reply back, he is looking to get £7800 (what he paid for it)

He also mentioned that since it got to Belgium it went straight into dry storage (due to a change in regulations making it expensive to register / tax) and there it has stayed for 2 years, so it is exactly the same as when I sold it frown

If anybody wants to ask any questions I am happy to pass on his email. Probably soon to appear in the classifieds.
