Greetings all,
Not so much of an introduction per se, but more of a firework bonanza (for me). As of close of business yesterday, I am officially rejoining the ranks of A2 ownership.
Some of you have already picked up my not-so-subtle comments, http://www.a2oc.net/forum/showthread.php?29536-My-Holy-Grail-Fsi-Has-A, and I am delighted to say that Jeff's former pride of place will now adorn my mantel in the same way.
Some of you already know of the car, which is an honest and genuine low mileage example. It is in absolutely fantastic condition, yet still shows minimal signs of age, which only serve to reinforce its integrity and honest origins. The car mirrors the fastidiousness and attention to detail mind of the current owner, Jeff, who has succeeded to transform a very good A2 into a great A2.
Jeff is a gentleman and it was a pleasure to meet the man with whom I had been corresponding with since around midnight Sunday morning of last week. No question was too much trouble and Jeff enthusiastically and proudly attached photographs and documents on demand to satisfy my questions and curiosities. A very sincere man, selling a very sincere A2; what was not to like.
On a final note to Jeff; I will do my upmost to build on your achievements; in the recognition that you have set a very high bench. Looking forward to taking formal ownership next Saturday and catching up with one of the good guys in the process.
Just in case there is any doubt;
I am now home; both car and forum.
Happy motoring all.
Darren
