i find all these things rather strange:

it started when spadge suddenly left/closed the company...sales of remaining parts seemed to be organized in a rush. most items sold to unusual low prices.

spadge "disappeared" officially for health reasons....ha, ha, ha...you can tell this my grandma.

it was told that one of his employees is keeping on the business. the homepage was updated with new contact-infos, but no further updates in the future.
now the complete homepage, with all its infos was shut down and people are getting directly linked to ginetta.com.

conclusion: spadge was a thorn in ginetta´s flesh (parts reproduction, dodgy registrations...), so he has been "advised" form the ginetta lawyers to retire from his businees. a lay figure, aka former employee, was installed temporary and finally everything was closed.

I think you're the only one who cares, or keeps posting about it?

You do know that Ginetta heritage was an official part of Ginetta don't you?

However I still find the who saga very strange, and I think very few people will know the real reasons why the end seemed to come so swiftly.

so why "those" people do not make an end with all those estimations?

from what ive heard LNT are unsure of what to do with the 'heritage' side of things.

what they really need is someone to deal with this side of the business who really knows what they're doing.. 'Dare' i say the Walkletts would be a good choice...? wink
