Hello and thanks for looking at my auction. I feel compelled to address some rather unpleasant feedback I got a while back. I have bought and sold cars from time to time, not as a business, but really as am enthusiast (back home in the UK) and below you will see some of the usual feedback I have received. I sold an Alfa and received the first negative comment from someone who put all funds in paypal, I credited back and he was going to pay cash, then tried to lower the price. I sold it to someone else, who after a month decided he didn't like it and wanted his money back, when I pointed out that it is not the way eBay works, negative feedback left. I was quite upset by this. A lovely person to deal with, a lovely car, thank you. Just what I was after. I know where to go for Alfa advise now :) great guy, very genuine, would highly recommend, sells whats on the tin A+++++ super nice guy,,fantastic transaction,great car very happy,,big A+ cheers mick Exactly as advert described, brilliant car, thanks. A+++ A beautiful car and a fantastic seller, a pleasure..Thankyou A++++++++ OK enough of that and on to the car. Its a fairly low mileage example and the last owner had it for 3 years, prior to that it was in AZ which probably goes some way to explaining how the lacquer has suffered so badly, but on the other side of that coin, why like so many it has not rotted. I am here visiting family for an extended 3 month trip and bought the car to use rather than renting, now that I am returning to the UK at the end of the month, it is time to sell. So to get what I see as the negatives out the way, let me detail those, the lacquer as mentioned, its a bit clunky over bumps and one tyre needs replacing, but I will do that. The a/c is not blowing cold so I dare say a charge is needed. Its a no frills cheap and cheerful car, which is exactly why I bought it, someone could make it really nice or someone could do what I am doing, and simply driving it as it is. The windows and power sunroof all work, as does the aerial and drivers seat. Cruise control is fitted and that works just fine too. The leather is in good order, and the mats while needing a very good clean, are original SHO mats. Factory fitted dual exhaust and factory chrome wheels. The Yamaha engine is quite something to behold, and I was advised by the seller that the cams have been welded, apparently an important issue with these cars, but I have nothing to show it was done, so all you are getting from me too is word of mouth. Gets out of its own way for a family sedan. If I were staying, I would probably give it a Maco special and enjoy it. Thanks for looking and please don't hesitate to ask if you have questions. **Note** I have just noticed some of these photo's are appalling, I will post more tomorrow, apologies. |

Former Ford CEO Mulally won't run for president
Mon, 15 Sep 2014Alan Mulally will not be following his successful term as president and CEO of Ford Motor Company with a run at an even bigger presidency. Rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would make a run at the White House sprouted after his apparent dodging of a reporter's questions about a potential candidacy during a forum in Indianapolis.
"I really think it's important that we all pull together. We really need to pull together around a compelling vision for our country and a comprehensive strategy to do it and work together. We really need to do it," Mulally said at the conference, according to The Detroit News.
He's since clarified by saying, "[I'm] honored at the suggestion, but that is not a role I am considering."
Are you Ford's next Bullitt Mustang? [w/poll]
Thu, 27 Mar 2014Ford has a long history of offering special editions of its legendary Mustang. One of the most vaunted of those trim packages, though, has only been offered twice. The first time was in 2001, and then again in 2008. Yes, we're talking about the Bullitt.
Named for the infamous Dark Highland Green Mustang Fastback driven by Steve McQueen in the 1968 cop melodrama Bullitt, the car was famous for not just its pilot, but the high-speed chase it took part in during the movie. Now, we think we have images of the next Bullitt.
According to our spy photographers, the paint is a "dead-ringer" for the Dark Highland Green that has signified these special edition Mustangs. While we're inclined to agree, it's also worth pointing out that this shade looks very similar to one of the 2015's other new colors, Guard. We've yet to see one on the road (let alone in such dreary conditions), so it's tough to say for certain.
