THIS Bedford CA Debonair 4-berth has come my way. The old girl is not really my cup of tea but I am sure she will be someone else's! A tidy enough 1968 model on a G plate. Chassis looks to be really good. Was running around 18 months ago when, I am told, she coughed and spluttered while out on a run. She made it home and has not been used since. There is a sticker in the rear window from a Steam Fair event in Cumbria in 2019. It will doubtless be either fuel or electrics but I have neither the time nor the inclination to investigate as I have way too many classic cars to be getting on with. Her last MoT expired in 2018 (she no longer requires one). I know next to nothing about them, I have never owned one and I do not even know where the vehicle's battery is housed. So, it's over to the next owner. Thanks.
The classic cars I sell are motoring antiques. There may be a few dozen left of any one model, maybe more and maybe less. Most of them had lives that lasted anywhere between three and seven years (on average). Today's classics are all rare. They have survived. Please do not come and look at one of my cars from the 30s, 40s or 50s and point out some blemishes. Do the maths and work out their ages. If these ancient motor cars are not your cup of tea then please don't make an appointment and come and insult them. Buy a three-year-old BMW if that is your thing. Some are restored to a huge degree; some have never been touched and remain original with warts and all. No two will ever be the same. They are not in a showroom "bulled up" for your perusal. I pride myself on being able to find different and interesting - to me at any rate - classic cars and then finding new homes for them. Understand that and we shall all get on very well indeed. Many thanks. Martin.
