The story of the Limo (I was very close to buying it a few years ago) it was owned by an older gentleman if not from new very close to new, and in a bit of a state simple as it had not been overly looked after in the recent past, he had stopped driving.

His daughter was selling the car. I agreed a price but the father was not at that point willing to sell it as it was an admission that he was giving up driving for good. By the time he was, I was not here (away) so Jake got it and recommissioned it. It was a bit wet etc and I suspect needed a good service belts etc.

Jake did a great job and was sold to the owner who is a member here. He did more work to his spec, seats etc.

Hi Phil it's good to hear from you. Thanks for the info, as you might not know I have just bought a Limo he used to own, going to sell the dark blue diesel.
Is everything okay with Jessica and yourself, and all of your family.
Hope too catch up with you soon.

Julien.
