He might just be being a numpty and not spotting it?

You could ask him to scan or digitally photograph every page and send it to you, then scour them yourself and bag a bargain :twisted:


I've had some luck like that before, on a Rover 216 I bought an ex.
On sale at an independant dealer, it had about 80k on the clock. A big fat pile of service history receipts stuck in the back of the original book and I dug through them to see when the cambelt had last been done (salesman had only looked at the stamps). I spotted that it had had a brand new engine put in by Rover at 60k! :D Naturally I didn't mention it, bartered him down on what was already actually a good price and drove away :lol:
Was an excellent car. Needed the walnut dash insert replacing (lacquer cracked) and it was then mint condition.

:think:

Rad split when she came down to visit and collect some things a couple of years later after we'd split up. Meant she had to stay overnight unplanned so I could fix it the next day (ex sex :twisted: )
:? I think it was then killed in a crash about a year later? :cry:


:facepalm: (I digress...)
