[Healeys] FW: New guy after advice

[Jean Caron]

I have never dealt with the guy or the Beverly Hills Car Club but I would imagine that he is like any other used car dealer and he will pay as little as he can for someone's car then clean it up and ask as much as he can. It is a business and he has to make money out of it or he will not stay in business.

Some people will like dealing with him and some won't. For many, the hassle of trying to sell their car themselves is not worth the hassle so they deal with someone like Mr. Manos and it makes it easier for them.

Like anything else in life it is buyer beware and making sure you get decent value for the money spent.


Jean

Alex Manos is the Beverly Hills Car Club. Interesting that it isn't mentioned on his website. Buying from him was just one of the questionable decisions that Wheeler Dealer made on their First US series IMHO.

Saw a 'Wheeler Dealers' episode where Mike bought a car--early MG or Triumph IIRC--from a guy named Alex.  Pretty sure it was Alex Manos as they were filming in So Cal at the time.  He appeared to have a fairly sizable inventory.

As far as Beverly Hills CC, I would stay away from them. They fo not have a great reputation on the Healey list. Is the car actually in LA? They broker cars from elsewhere in the country.  I would check out national and State Hesley clubs for cars for sale
Www.healey6.com<http://Www.healey6.com> is great resource  for info and links to many club websites. There are known problem areas on these cars and you must have someone familiar with them to look the car over. They are fun to drive and work on and most parts are easily obtained.  This list is still a great resource,  but you might also want to check out the Austin healey owners group on facebook.
Happy hunting.
