There was a California on eBay at the start of this month, being advertised by a chap from Hemel Hempstead.
Was anyone watching it? Please could anyone that has it in their list please send me the link.
Thanks

here you go..
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/356-SPEEDSTER ... 0785130355
..google is very good at indexing ebay because it has so many hits and updates, so if you ever need anything that WAS for sale just type into google uk something like "ebay.co.uk 356 california" (which is what i did) and it will return lots of current/past links.. i believe ebay listings remain viewable for 90days after the end time?
you can also type "site:" then the name of the website/page you want to search (without any spaces between : and the web address) then a space, then the search term to limit the results to only things found in the website you specify

Re: 356 California Rep on eBay recently
Thanks for the useful advice!
I'm actually very happy that guy no longer owns it. I'll keep details to myself but it think he would have lasted about 5 minutes at a 356 meet before everyone would have made their minds up about him.
I don't know who owns it now but if the new owner wants any advice or help I obviously know the car inside out and I'm happy to answer questions if they are on here. You have a bargain whoever you are!!

Re: 356 California Rep on eBay recently
Haha, well spotted.
I think i did fairly well out of it. I sold it for £14k. Although i did put a lot of work into it to get it to a reliable almost everyday use car.
Just goes to show, weekend toys can be a bit of fun and not cost you anything.
