thanks for that Im sticking to haart.co.uk!!

Yes. I'm sure they're cleaner than clean, completely professional and are the only ones that have houses you want to buy. :rolleyes:

Haart are a franchise. Completely unpredictable.

Just look for the house, not the agent.

MINI stopped making cars in British Racing Green a few years back and I am sure there is only one reason for that. A city car with the UK's major city populated with green ones owned by EAs? If you owned a green one that wasn't liveried, people would assume that you'd bought a second hand Foxton's one anyway.

don't know where you got that from, but it isn't true. they still do british racing green.

Foxtons aren't even mentioned in that press release. Last time I checked Foxtons didn't employ mortgage brokers either - they refer to another company.

They lied then because I read it in a press release on a MINI forum. It's a really unpopular colour, that's a fact.

maybe they started it again when foxtons had to renew their fleet. i bought a mini just after christmas, they tried to sell me a brand new british racing green one for £20k. generous.

I have a Mini too. I tried to buy the one that I had as a courtesy car and they wanted 22,500! They must have offered you a discount for it being green . The friendly guy in servicing told me that they'd sold one to a lottery winner for 32,000! :eek:

Mate, you're the dickhe@d if you're going to respond like that and get it wrong. He sold it for 360 million. I'd rather have 310 million than a kick in the teeth. He knew what he was doing.

Where is the 50m?
