You may have seen this car for sale on ebay over the last month or 2 and I have heard its been spoke about on some forums off various potential buyers, I can't find anything so I don't know what's been spoke about or where ( maybe facebook but I am not on so wouldn't no ) but I will put you all in the picture with what's happened. Car was being sold on my behalf by a good friend with garage premises as I don't have time due to work commitments.
First time out my friend had a bloke send that many messages back and forth to him about the car and his old cars etc etc we thought the sale was done and dusted he bid £8.5k a number of times before going to look at DaveL's red 21 he is currently working his magic on. After seeing the car he came back with a £7500 bid ( which would have bought the car ) but the way it was done got my friends back up a bit and he just told him NO.
Second time out, a mechanic came with his wife he bid £8k for it and test drove the car and loved it but the rear brake pads were rattling in the callipers and did sound terrible but it was a simple fix and done the next day, My friend called him back to tell him it was fixed and he said he wanted the car but was busy and would call back, the next day no call so we called him he was still busy ( I knew he was a messer then ) we called him a couple more times after that then he said his Wife wouldn't let him buy it

Next couple of listings it didn't make the reserve which I agree I set to high.
Then a local guy came for a look and drove the car ( and this car does drive well and is quick ) he loved it and in his words " This is a bit of me " he left and said he would come back next day with some cash and buy the car. The next day we rang him and he said he wasn't interested ( I honestly can't understand people )
Last time out someone rang and we asked him for a bid on the car and he said he didn't know how much it was worth as there weren't any more about for sale but gauged a bid on a red one that was on for £6K not to long ago and after a bit of chat he came up with a £7800 bid agreed - buyer to collect with in a couple of days - again Buyer disappeared
Can I just say that being messed about with this car is an understatement.
I am not sure if what has been spoke about this car on forums but maybe it is putting people off this car I just don't know.
Car was recommissioned tremendously by DaveL ( no one better could do it )
DaveL sold car to Paul Errington ( Turbo Renault member ) Newcastle
Paul Errington sold the car to me of which I have done a number of jobs.

I have enjoyed owning this car and I have done number of car shows whilst owning the car most of them being a good 3hr round trip and the car has never missed a beat.
