F70BVP For Sale

[millermilla]

Hiya,

I notice F70 BVP is for sale again very quickly after having been sold by GC Motors who had the car for ten years. http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/834267.htm Seems a bit odd to be back up for sale again so quickly. It does however look like its had a good clean compared to when I saw it in November and it says it's got 12 months MOT so it must be back on the road.

The reason F70BVP is back up for sale is it was sold to a woman who thought her husband wanted one, and for a suprise she brought it for him for christmas , but it was not the car he wanted . Aparantly she sent some company down to GC minis with the cash for the car without even looking at it . That is now why the car is back up for sale .

I e-mailed the seller on pistonheads and this is the responce I got.

I went into GCs the other week to have a look at the car and he told me he had sold it to the wife of the owner of a major tv satelite company, she had brought it as a suprise thinking her husband wanted one . He also said that the car had been collected by a company she had employed to find her an ERA Mini and that the company had also been in back in touch asking if they wanted to buy it back as it was totally the wrong car the husband was looking for . They declined the offer which is understandable as they had it for so long .
