Looking for a European Dino located in Europe. Any offer considered. Ideal car would be a well used and maintained one that is on the road and does some miles every year. Not an expert myself so be ready to negotiate with a polite gentleman who is helping me with this who sometimes can be really annoying with details I never knew that were important for a purchase. Please sell me YOUR car not some friends or one you saw at the dealer, I will negotiate with the owner. Thank you.
Let's see what comes. All offers are considered. I am not looking for a project, just not a concours condition one I would feel guilty driving like I stole it when in the mood.
Any & all "restored"(?) vintage cars, including Dinos, should be fully drivable/useable, i.e. "drivers", but if not, perhaps they haven't been properly & well restored to begin with and/or aren't maintained adequately ? Why would anyone "feel guilty" driving their own car ? Only reason I could see being overly(?) careful/cautious driving any car is if it's something very unique AND/OR in really nice, unrestored (i.e. having all original finishes/materials/etc) condition, i.e. worthy of historical preservation. Any properly/well restored car can be re-restored again & again & again ... GLWYS P.S. There's an old wisdom about buying the best (condition) car being usually the smartest thing to do. And 99.9+% of any brand, 50+ y.o. vintage cars that look "well used" are usually mechanically neglected and quickly become huge money pits.
Was contacted by a person (not from this fine forum) who gave a good tip about a Dino located in the Netherlands. Made arrangements for a specialist to travel there and check the car. Decided to call the seller prior to sending my man just to check if all is good and proceed. All of a sudden the car from "negotiable" switched to "on hold" and half a day later to "I know what I have and will not accept less than XXX.XXX for it as one just sold for a million". Great Job guys at BAT. GREAT JOB. CONGRATS.
