944 Turbo Needed for Wheeler Dealer.

Post by John Oakes »

Hi,

Had a guy on the phone tonight looking for a good 944 Turbo for the Wheeler Dealer show that is on Sky. Do not to much information but is emailing me with more this week.
They have a 1986 944 in Grey. So looking for a car that is NOT Grey and somewhere around the Yorkshire region. The show is filmed in Halifax I believe. If you watch the show they like to have a finished car to look at. Not sure if they will be driving it but will ask that question later.
Please let me know asap with a few details and possibly a picture or two, please email me direct on john.oakes3@btinternet.com
I will post more information when I find out more.

Regards
John Oakes

Mods feel free to delete:

I would advise against this personally. the guy is a cock. I used a specialist dealer that was featured when they did a car - i wont go into details but a loan car came back much worse off, and after a fair bit of arguing the were dropped from the credits.

Its all rubbish anyway - i remember the alternator swap - easy job they said - 8 hours it takes! seriously i really hate that man. if i ever see him, i may punch him.

Hi,

Not a nice thing to say about someone, I enjoy the show and good to see them repairing cars and selling them.

Dave my 928 was on The Used Car Roadshow and had a great time there and seeing it on telly.

JUST after a good car for the show nothing else?
