Speaking of English Fords, well Turkish, it grips me every time I see one of those cunt-faced Transits in a North American setting instead of an Econoline or summat.....

He has sent me a picture of the wheel nut key in the ashtray so it had better still be there when it arrives. The seller has been really helpful and done a whole load of photo's so I know what was in the car when it was picked up and any damage on it.

It has only taken a week but the 'vette is finally in New York. The fuckers better wash it before they stick it in a container.

Bit concerned about the rev counter as it was working properly and I am sure it isn't ticking over at 5k

Christ. By the time it's been at sea for a few weeks, if they haven't cleaned it, that and the sea air might make opening the container in England look like it's loaded full of cornflakes.

Fucking shipping company are really getting on my tits now with their lies. They are now saying my car won't be leaving on the 16th (2 months after I paid for it) as the ship is stuck outside New York in congestion. Funny that as vessel finder shows it in the English channel on it's way to Antwerp. I have been following it since they gave me the vessel name and thought they were a bit off with their dates. I don't mind the delays so much its just the fucking lies all the time. CFR Rinkens can go fuck themselves and will get a really shit review if I ever get my car useless cunts. May the 5th it should be here now. In other news the fuel tank is back in the DKW and the Dispatch van is on the market.

That is fucking shit, especially when it's something so easy for you to check on.
