Old Colonel Cars, Reputable dealer or not?

Donnacha, are you from Ireland ? If so theres an Irish forum as well. Andy in old colonel is a good guy to deal with. His cars are not cheap but they tend to be the cream of the crop.

Drowningman is not Ratch! Pacerpete bought a 320i Touring from him and described him as a Gent of limited means.
