For Sale: Dax Rush 2.1l Pinto.

[Tony C]

Richard,

I was approached by a guy from Holland when I put my previous Tiger up for sale. It seems he came over fairly often with a trailer/small car transporter and looked at several cars in trip. I beleive there is a good market for them in Holland, so I guess the same could apply in Germany. A few of the ads on Pistonheads are often for a dealer in Holland. I had the same resereations, but I recall that a few people on the Tiger Owners Club forum had had trouble free experiences with dealers from Europe when I asked.

If you've banked the cash before you release the car it should be safe enough.

Cheers

Tony

i made sure i did not give out my chassis number that my foreign buyer of range rover wanted to " arranage his insurance" , he had no issue with this and just did it once he had handed over cash and he rung the insurance company there and then.

Oops! Needed it for insurance company - it's a Saturday so he probably cannot phone them.

Seems he (they) are coming with pounds after all but having checked with the bank it is no problem with Euros in cash. They just convert it at the current exchange rate and pay it into one's account - no limit if you are a customer. All other ways require a clearing process and can be several days to a week or more.

So, we'll wait and see. Plus if he brings Euros, I'll take him to the bank! (Yes, I plan to take some form of ID.)

Next task is V5C. Seems from all posts that all I do is say I have exported the car and the rest is up to him. I do not even have to notify a new owner. Is that what you two did?

Well that was easy, I think.

07:45 phone call to say arriving in 30 mins - they left at 03:00!

Had a casual look at car and I took them out in it. Swapped cash (£pounds) for car and it's now in my bank already.

They phoned two hours later near Dover to ask if fuel to use was unleaded 95 and said all was OK too.

Let's hope it all is.
