Back in the UK, but more delays…!
Finally arrived back home late on Wednesday night, I really don’t like 11 hour flights, I think I have found my limit. As I suspected I was greeted with rain lashing down as I dragged my case up my road, and the usual miserable faces on the tube as I headed into work the next morning…
To cheer myself up I called to Anthony Pozner at Hendon Way Motors as I was certain the Ferrari Mondial would be ready, given that I’d been away for two and a half weeks. Anthony confirmed that the mechanical work had been completed, but unfortunately now the car was awaiting to go into the body workshop to have the minor issues dealth with. Again Anthony was very apologetic, I slightly hid my disappointment that it was not going to be ready for the weekend, and I pressed him to ensure it would be ready for Friday 22nd June (which would be six and a half weeks since I paid the initial deposit!). He couldn’t guarantee it but said he would do his best, which I hope he does, as I really would be openly disappointed if it wasn’t ready for that weekend, given that it’s the national Ferrari Owners’ Club meeting at Broughton Castle in Oxfordshire the following weekend.
I can only assume that the chaps at Hendon Way Motors really do a thorough job and check everything before handing over cars to their customers. We shall soon see, and I’d rather everything be done properly in such a manner, so I’m sure it will be worth waiting for….
