Of or Off

When I order parts I will send a list. 1. 4 off XXXX 2. 3 off YYY etc etc. I tried this with one supplier via email and he thought it was a spam message as he would have used "4 of" rather than "4 off". Now would you learned Gentlemen be able to shed any light on this? Which of u...

Re: Daimler DE27

Not really a big decision is it? The white one at £13,995 or the black one, needing work at £14,995. Why do people assume that if a royal bum has been on the seats it must make the car more valuable?

Re: Not very Majestic Major DYP 471C

The last time I saw the Copart listing the price was £450 but it must have gone for something slightly higher. Has the chap realised what he's bought and come to the conclusion that it's more than he can deal with? I would hate one of the banger racers to buy it.

Identity checks

It seems there isn't a level playing field with auction houses. Some require an ID proof if bidding over a certain amount, Brightwells don't want any, or appear not to, yet recently I have been asked for photo ID if I want to bid over £6,500 by another auction site.

If you ask David Beales it might have the details of the Consort chassis he fitted with a 2.5 V8 engine mated to a pre-selector gearbox. It fitted quite well.

Re: Antifreeze

Following Richard's excellent advice I visited the Halfords website. Hmm. Enter reg it said and I typed it the one for my older vehicle which is one prefix, three numbers and three letters. It worked. However, the 2011 vehicle has to be entered as one long number without spaces or it comes up as unr...
