San Diego Marcos

2013-08-01 by Robin

Hello
I am supposed to see the Marcos for sale in San Diego this Saturday.
I will ask if I can take pictures and post them.
He seems like a nice guy on the phone and has a big collection
of British cars. I hope to see them also.
Regards
Robin

Hi:
I went to see the car.
It is an original car.
It needs a really good cleaning to see exactly whats what....
It does not appear to have been crashed and repaired.
The owner has a lot of paperwork and service history.
The owner seems like a decent guy and did not come across like a shady used car salesman.....
I think the guy bought the car along time ago and has not really driven the car much.
It did not feel very powerful but I have never driven one before so maybe that's the way they came.
The suspension and brakes seems rather soft and mushy for a sports car.
It would be a nice driver however I believe much of the mechanical systems should be gone thru.
Sorry to say it but now that I have seen and driven in one it is not really a model that appeals to me.
Regards
Robin
