Re: Marcos, what else... !

2010-01-03 by dvandenzegel

Hi Mr Bruins,

I am in contact with mr Royson in Sweden.

As for the "NicoBaaas" car, that is already a long time on the site.
But a while ago I read it was sold... 
And even if it isn't sold, if you see what 
is the "asking-price", you will understand that this
is beyond my budget.

So I am patiently looking for the right car !
:-)))

Bets regards and thank you for your remarks !
