Re: chelmsford...
Quite, if someone has gone to the trouble of putting a set of expensive springs and shocks on a car, then it makes you wonder if it was actually a decent car. Does he do it just to annoy people. I wonder if T2 actually tells people what he`s going to do with their cars once he`s brought them and if they did know would it make the owner think twice about selling to this barbarian.

It could also be the owner whoever he or she was spent a small fortune on it then that time came round for the MOT and Wham Rusty as Hell.<br>

If any classic owner what's to sell there car to these people what can we do to stop it NOTHING also if it wasn't for people like T2 where would we go for those part's we need.<br>
<br>

Birthday Suit
Happy B'day Phil.<br>
<br>
We can't do anything to stop him apart from not buying stuff from him. Hopefully, if he doesn't see any profit in them he will turn his perverse mind to some other model of car.<br>
<br>
There must be some idiots out there who sell these cars on to him. Its not the first time we have seen some pukka tuning bits going up for sale from the 'un-finished restoration project'. Even in a shell that's a complete nail, it would fetch probably double what T2 pays them.<br>

The trouble, for want of a better word, is that there are a lot of dolomites around at the moment. The plain fact is they <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>are</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> worth more as parts than as whole cars. Those shocks are already sitting at more than I am paying for VA41. Currently it is profitable to buy dolomites, dismantle them and ebay the spares. Where there is profit to be made someone will appear to make it. There's nothing we can do about it, if terryman2 wasn't doing it someone else would. Eventually dolomites will become rare enough that this is no longer the case and turdyman2 will move on to another rising classic marque.<br>
<br>
Sad but unless one of us wins the lottery and starts outbidding him on everything there's nothing we can do.<br>
<br>
Anyone out there a tax/vat inspector? If he got listed for greater scrutiny he'd have less time available...<br>
