Only joking...
Did anyone see Father Ted at the weekend, it was the one iwth the Father who Collects War Memorobilia...
How funny
Likewise, on the Tuscan front this link may also be of some interest to some ph.ers to save them the trouble I went to 
www.MyTuscanChallenge.com
The site's not long up, so maybe still propagating across the net. If you don't get it today, it should be OK by tomorrow.
I know Ted's not keen on using the forums for naming and shaming, so no comments or names in this thread from me - make your own minds up if you choose to visit. And if you wish to make others aware of the site's existance, then that's fine by me

You sir have the patience of an absolute saint!
Hope you get it all rectified, sadly this is just another reason to add to the list of why not to use them anymore...
Very sorry tale, a lesson to all is, never pay your full balance until you are completly satisfied with the transaction, a small holding deposit will be enough to secure the deal the balance AND p/x should only be handed over on delivery. My advise is to take them up on the offer of money and Cerby back and cut your loses i hope it all works out for you

They seem to have gone from bad to worse over the years.. I recall going in there to buy a 350i in around 1992 - subsequently discovered it had been used by thieves to bust through the glass/fencing in an attempt to steel the other cars - was repaired (believed outside of insurance) and allegedly sold to an unsuspecting buyer! Seems dealers can get away with murder ( www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?p=2&f=12&t=10492&h=0&hw=ringed ) William - I don't know how you are so patient - the Tuscan may be worth it in the end but I would get seriously legal... or get the Cerbera back (as per T88CAN) and hope to find a replacement in the future. Best of luck either way.Gassing Station | General TVR Stuff & Gossip | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
