If you have tried calling using Car and Classic's proxy telephone no. I will have been accidentally blocking previously as part of my block against a Chinese-based "immigration" scam that's been calling me several times a day for months.
Car and Classic have just provided me with the actual number that will appear on my mobile from enquiries via their proxy no. from this ad.
Apologies for any inconvenience; I have now unblocked the phone no. shown in this ad so it's good for calls.
