recently purchased 944 from this company
and can state this guy is a conman
and very clever with a camera
and very economical with the truth


STAY WELL AWAY

Can you be more specific?

I know one guy down here near sevenoaks who is pretty dodgy too. It's all to easy to assume the best of dealers that just because they sell prestige and performance stuff and they are very charming (at first).

I come across Buchanan Motors on eBay quite often and their ads are very convincingly put together, but all suspiciously similar …

Try not to worry too much about the history - at this age it's condition that really counts. However I'm pretty sure you could send it back due to violation of the sale of good act (?)

i think it was 911RMD that had issues with buchanan motors, i think he took him to court over non existant history and failure to honour warranty etc
