Frank,
I believe I have a Solex 35 PAAI (twin choke like the Weber) if you are stuck.

Another week passes.......still no B12, so one of the members off the other forum kindly offered to go around and have a looksee on my behalf, I mean was the car actually in the UK?!
Sure enough 24 hrs later on Sunday said member turned up on his doorstep unannounced....slight look of incredulity on said contractors face, car was there....phew, but uncovered on a trailer, not what I had asked for nor expected!
More semi promises of doing all he can, but may have to take the next step, if not delivered this week....on his fifth delivery date now!

Perhaps once you've hopefully received it in good condition, you'll name and shame them as they certainly don't deserve anyone elses business  Brian 8227  |

The saga continues, after another either or scenario.....Friday or Monday definitely promise...on Sunday night last got a text to say he has ceased trading, but will do his best to keep car safe, despite two other transporters going to collect it on consecutive days, because both were winchless ( I told them both it needed winched!) the car is still there!
Fingers crossed for Tuesday coming though, when they will try again.....!

This is the stuff nightmares are made of, any reason why you cant get someone else to collect, as he has ceased trading, i would be concerned about poss baliff taking his transportation away, at least that way you would have the B12, wishing you good luck.

This is unbelievable !!!
Fingers crossed that it all works out ok and very soon !!!!! You really need the certainty of that car off the trailer, on the ground and secured on your property.
Good luck,
Andy

Rule of thumb Andy.....if it can be cocked up...it will, especially when you rely on unknown third parties who don't truly understand business and responsibilities!

Am gunna have to employ a script writer at this rate. Indeed one or two on the forum might doubt that I've bought the thing at all!
So after another assurance it would be picked up today, its now tomorrow.
Oh well.......tomorrow it is then!
