I have never had a problem with European collectibles, they have always been courteous, men of their word, and represented their cars exactly for what they were. Could not be more happy with my 62 super 90 cabriolet that they handled. Breath taking as compared to all of the east coast cars I have handled and or owned in the past. I am sure that they would never jeopardize their fine reputation my knowingly misrepresenting a car

+1 on European. I am not a heavy poster here, but Nick, Jeff(RIP), Chris and Tim are perfect gentlemen to deal with. I bought my 64 C Cab from them and had them do the restoration. I didn't have any issues with them during this process. I am local to them and I have not heard any negative comments from numerous buyers in the area.

I certainly wouldn’t read too much into your single positive examples either; just because one had a good experience doesn’t deny or add anything contrary to someone having a bad experience.

It goes both ways.

A series of positives doesn’t invalidate a negative. This often happens though.

I just hope it turns out well. And willful negligence would be equally bad too. Lots more incentive when dealing with seven figure cars.

Really Richard? That would have had to have been by the same girl for your comparison to work........

Your point is well taken, but I think the good transactions with EC far outnumber the complaints.
Some days it's just not worth chewing through the restraints.....

I did say “unrelated” but perhaps I should have been clearer. Of course not. Let’s hope they didn’t do anything wrong and their was no intent

I was just using an example people weee familiar with to demonstate the concept of how this type of counter example logic is invalid.
