Needing to rant a little. Been on the look for a replacement lorry for some months now and been keeping a close eye on all webs sites that I can and checking with magazines on line. Great last night had some time so had a really good look around and found a company that had posted some new adds on this one magazines web site.
Having a free day today I thought great I will head off at 6am for the 3 hours to the dealers as it seemed he had 3 that would be worth looking at. Got there and the man was Very very nice and I am not going to name him because what happened is not his fault but the B**** magazine online posting 5 month old adds as new. I know I know I should have rung first but I did not ring. He was somewhat surprised when I said I have come from Lincolnshire to see the lorries you have posted last night on line in magazine xxx not (H&H). Showed him the pictures and he said Oh no not again seems this one magazine have done it to him before and he no longer posts adds with them because of this. The man was so nice and showed me around the few he did have in stock but nothing like the ones I have viewed online.
But the tale might have a silver lining for me he has a chassis coming in and he will make into what I want and paint for me in 6-8 weeks! So now home and fingers and toes crossed that I might just get the lorry I want. All is left to do is figure out what colours I want and that is soooooo hard to do.
