Not to derail the subject of Dusty Old Cars® , but I've had good luck finding my dusty old cars via Craigslist, some guys use a search engine that can look at CL all over the states - and with the Canadian dollar being down right now if I lived way up north I'd be looking there too.

There is no substitute for doing a little research tho, and when it comes to used cars - especially old dusty ones - you have to know what you're getting into.

Unfortunately so many people expect old cars to work just like their 250,000 mile old Honda.......

 

If you hear from this clown again, ask him if the company Decor My Eyes [sic] rings any bells. Or maybe they have heard of a guy named Vitaly Borker. If not, perhaps look him up. Just saying.

 

I'm guessing that there is an attorney in your area that offers free consultation. Under the guise of being fearful you might be sued I'd talk to one and get his recommendations on how to proceed.

 

if you google the dusty old cars guy's name, you get a lot of uncomplimentary hits......

 

I'm sorry to hear that your experience in chasing a classic Mini has been such a bummer thus far. That said, my humble suggestion is to check the Mini Mania website and follow their listings. They cover cars listed all over the Country. Or, contact Don or Dennis personally at their Mini Mania office. Alternately, I would recommend contacting Mike at Seven Enterprises, and/or Graham at Heritage Garage.

These businesses are here in California, are well established and are owned and operated by some of the best and most reputable Mini folks there are. If you have an idea of exactly what you're looking for in a Classic Mini, any of these guys will be able to guide you towards your prize.

Hope this helps you out and I'd love to see your score after it's been found. All the best!

 

If I had grounds to sue someone, I wouldn't call them, I'd call my lawyer. I'm guessing this guy is a common bully, doing what bullies do.

I agree with whaap. If you want some peace of mind, talk to a lawyer. An ethical lawyer will not charge you for a consultation. They will only charge you if their services are actually needed.

Well, that d-bag at http://www.dustyoldcars.com/ would be foolish to mess with the hooligans at Motoring Alliance. http://www.dustyoldcars.com/ wouldn't stand a chance against us rabble-rousers here at Motoring Alliance. We would give that guy at http://www.dustyoldcars.com/ a smackdown he'll never forget. :mad5:

If it gets really serious, we'll sick Dave.0 on him. :eek6:

CD :devil:

 

They have a 2004 Cooper with 163,000 miles "marked down" to $9K......:crazy:

 

If they have over 50 active complaints against this company why the hell can't they shut them down?
