Hi

Yes I have already asked for more info, and also if they know where to get any parts.

Looks better knick than mine.

Shame it's so far down into France though.

John :D

Hi Blob

Yes I had noticed the price as well, almost tempted to do the 1,000 mile round trip.

I know the feeling!! I liked the look of the Frisky a while back, but it would have been 1600 miles in a hired truck and they're not designed to be driven that far.

Was that the Frisky that was stripped back to a rolling shell ?

I also sent an email to the seller.
Wanted to know where it is in France, but never got a reply.
Its a nice prize anyway. Does someone got more information about the car? Running/not running?

Cheers

Hi

I have had no response to email I sent a couple of days ago.

The aprox area is around, Limoges, (which is about 450 miles from Dover, ish !!!)

The condition looks very good, shiny chrome work and bright gel coat

As it's her first sale on Ebay, mayby she isn't looking at her emails very often.

I emailed in Babelfish translated to French, so she may be ignoring foreign emails as she thinks we all talk gibberish.

Would be a more viable proposition if we could find 2 or 3 cars to pick up at the same time.

If anyone else is going that way we could share expenses. ?????????????

Will advise if I get any more info. before anyone else.

Hi

Just had an email to say the car has already been sold.

Not suprised, as looked far too good for 200 Euros.

Hi John, oh well there goes another bargin!! by the way the Frisky mentioned was the one striped to a rolling shell, unfortunatly the windscreen was missing and they're seriously hard to find.

Frisky screens are available from stock at several Reliant dealers - I bought one last month for £220

Hi Trident, I'd be interested in any retailers contact details you may have? I knew they were Reliant Sabre but haven't tracked one down yet.

2 Mini Comtesse on offer on Ebay.Fr by the same vendor,

I think 1 is viewed appointment only, item: 180083808077 whilst the other is pictured item: 180083537033


(The 1st item is for sale for 1p, so it may only be an engine, or even a spares car!! couldn't quite translate the text)

Hi

Iv'e been watching this one as well.

The seller says he has no idea when the engine was last running, but it is not seized up.

He thinks most of the parts are all there though.

I may bid near to the finish time if it's still reasonable.

May be better waiting for a mint one to come up and pay a bit more for it though.
