blimey - bad news. Didnt Al get his 348 from SA? always sad to hear of a dealer with this kind of stock not being able to make ends meet.

[kenyon]

It was reported they over stocked with cars and all on bank loans. The debt to great to clear. All cars reprossed by banks and liquidators....

And then....?

[Davey S1]

They will be sold off as soon as possible. This may well have the effect of bringing prices down in the uk as the liquidator will have to get shot of them pretty sharpish so bargains may to be had.

I was always amazed at how much stock they had. Sad to see such a committed independent go through though

[anjum]

Not suprised though.......

Most of it's SOR, but if you own a car they're selling I'd get it out of there ASAP.

Justin thx for that window 'stuff' you recommended - worked brilliantly.

How long did they have their showroom in Manchester for? Was that a new thing?

Hi Phil - No, looked at one there but he wanted too much.

My, what a big @rse you have in your profile pic

I was out with Leighton, the previous owner of your car, a few weeks ago on the South Wales Owners Club run. He has bought a 360 Spider, manual 'box, silver with bordeaux hide.

Very nice car but lacks the impact of the banana yellow 348

I know what you mean, but in Leyton's defence, he would have got a yellow one if he could have found one
