I have been interested in cars, especially classic cars for as long as I can remember. I am currently restoring a very early (1970) Mini Clubman 1275GT in quite a rare colour. It is called Antelope, but most people would call it beige! We have two little boys so I don't get a lot of time to spend restoring it at the moment but they are both interested in cars so I may get some help in a few years time!
My other car is a 1975 Jubilee Edition MGB GT which is a lot more fun to drive than the Mondeo I used to have. My daily driver is a pseudo-classic car, it is a 1990 Saab 9000 Carlsson; fast, comfortable, reliable and a bit thirsty.
Reading motoring books and magazines is another of my interests so I felt that combining my two interests would be a great idea to start my own business.
I sell owner's handbooks, workshop manuals, original sales brochures and other automotive literature for a wide range of classic and vintage cars.
I have an eBay shop where it is easy to find items of interest, so please take a look.
If you require a handbook, manual or brochure that I have not listed please feel free to contact me and I will see if I've got one and get it listed as soon as I can.
I aim to make the buying process as easy as possible.
I try to communicate well with my customers and send emails for:
- winning bidder confirmation or an invoice
- payment received
- item dispatched
- or a personalised email if needs be
I sell many items overseas and although I can speak a bit of French and Italian, my written skills are lacking. I sometimes use the wonderful babelfish program to send text in English and the language of the customer, it's not perfect but I hope it is appreciated.
I do not make profit from postage and packaging. I only charge what it costs me to send the parcel. If I have overestimated the cost you will receive a refund via Paypal. I like to keep things as transparent as possible with no hidden costs.
Virtually all my items are used and I do my best to give accurate descriptions but I realise that my "good condition" could be different to yours so I try to state specific things which detract from the item such as rips, staining, writing etc. I also have a returns policy because of this.
Anyway, many thanks for looking at this page and feel free to browse through the items I have listed and look at my feedback.
