Morning

I thought I would  let you know that I have ridden the GSXR that I bought from you last month and I'm really pleased, I rode at Rockingham and the handling was awesome.              

hi adrian, just a quick email just to say thank you and it is a pleasure to do business with yourself and hope we will do more, thank you.

Dear Adrian

Just a note to thank you for the Bentley. We are delighted with it and I'm really glad it all went through in the end.>

Regards

Richard

Dear Adrian,

this is to say I finally put some use in the Bonnie. It always starts first kick and it is a joy to drive. I am a very proud and happy owner.
Thank you very much again for the smooth transaction and for all the kind assistance you gave me throughout it for all the crossboarder intricancies.
Although I try to resist, I am afraid I will be your customer again in the near future!

 Best wishes. Francesco

Hi Adrian,
As promised a photo of the Triumph with smart new French Plates. Something to add to your web - another very pleased customer who cannot praise Spinning Wheel Garage enough for the high level of service. In fact I would say that you went beyond the call of duty to get the car ready and send it off to France. However many thanks and I look forward perhaps someday buying another classic from you.
All the very best Nigel

Hello Adrian, as you promised, the Porsche 944 Owners Manual and service books duly arrived last week. Unfortunately, due to the inclement weather, I have only been out in the car once, however, I did a 50 miles round trip just before Christmas and I have to say, not only does the Porsche look superb, it drives just as well. Most people who see the car simply don’t  believe that it is original and not the subject of a multi thousand pounds restoration. I now have a list of friends ( including several ladies I am glad to say), waiting for a drive, roll on Spring!Needless to say, I am delighted with my purchase, it is very refreshing in this day and age to deal with someone who has, what are now considered old fashioned virtues such as honesty and integrity, I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone wishing to purchase a Classic Car in total confidence, indeed, I will be looking for a Convertible myself from you later this year.

Thanks’ once again and Kind regards, Selwyn

I’m a fully qualified motor vehicle engineer (cars, bikes and trucks). This is the second motorcycle I have purchased from Adrian at Spinning Wheel Classics. I have been delighted with each deal and was impressed on both occasions with the quality of the bikes, professionalism, knowledge and friendliness of Adrian and his team.
If you are interested in Classic Cars or Motorcycles, then the Spinning  Wheel  website should be on your 'favourites' list as Adrian’s  stock is always very interesting and changing on a regular basis (almost daily).
Keep up the good work Adrian and thanks again for your help in purchasing the two bikes. I look forward to doing some more business with you in the future.

Hello Adrian.

Afternoon Adrian,

Just a quick note to say a big thank you for all the help and assistance with my recent purchase it was a pleasure to deal with you and the team from the first visits when I was like a child in a toy shop looking round all the toys you and you team were always happy to chat a discuss my requirements and advise accordingly.  My boys and Father were thrilled when you quite happily dedicated all Saturday morning to letting us test drive the MG with you.  It didn’t stop there your after sales service was just as good as the pre sales service which is like a breath of fresh air in this country which is sadly lacking in customer service at times.  I run my own business we drive our success through offering great service and value and its good to see we aren’t on our own.
Thanks again.

Regards

Afternoon Adrian,

Just to let you know that I have just received the V5C and MOT for the MGV8 as you promised. I would like to thank you for your exceptionally good service from the start to the finish of this transaction. It is not without some trepidation that I embarked on spending quite a sum of money on a car that I had never seen, from a man that I had never met, 300 miles away. After years of buying smart German cars from smart suited salesmen who never quite measure up to the promise, it has been a pleasure to deal with a business that delivered  just what it promised. The vehicle was delivered at the time you said, it was in the condition you said, the history file was as complete as you said, and at a fair price, I don’t think anyone can ask much more! I would not hesitate in recommending you to anyone who feels a little nervous about buying “unseen” In fact I already have, so please let me know if you obtain an MGB GT V8 I have a likely purchaser.

 Best Regards

Thank you for finding my dream car. The "new" one is not only my ideal colour and trim combination, but it's as near perfection as you're realistically likely to get this side of a concours example, which would cost considerably more. So, similar engine, more responsive gearbox, silent suspension, positive, play-free steering; it all adds up to driving with a smile. I've been in some newer Jags, and they can't quite match this sublime combination of whisper-quiet performance, comfort, roadholding and handling, and other marques are still nowhere near, nearl thirty years on. Why Jaguar have spent all that development money over the past years, when all they had to do was equip the engine with a 4-valve head (Walkinshaw did one), a modern ECU and injection system, give it a modern gearbox and pay more attention to corrosion resistance, is quite beyond me. So it's off back to Friuli with a smile on my face, and I'll start looking for a nice Fiat 500 for you, and some Prosecco.

Hi Adrian

 The MGC i recently bought from you is to date the "Best" classic i have owned, it looks and drives superb,I'm off to Tatton Park classic car show this weekend to display it.
Thanks again for the great service,

Dear Adrian,
Many thanks for the delivery of the 1936 Standard Light 10. It was good to meet Brian. He was very helpful.
The car runs well and even my wife, who thinks i am truly mad, likes it and enjoyed her first run in it.
I shouldn't call the car an 'it'. ! She is definitely feminine and we have called her Georgina!
It was indeed good to do business with you.

 All good wishes.
Richard xxxx.

Hi Adrian

     Just a short note to say what a pleasure it was to do business with you from start to finish ,the bike (250ducati ) was perfect better than I had hoped thank you for your help again and hope  and wouldn’t hesitate to buy again from yourself .

Hi Adrian, just a few words to say thanks for the swift and pleasant way you dealt with the sale and delivery of the DRK.  I'm delighted with the little car and am pleased with the way it handles and performs.It was good to meet up with Tim and his family and have some input about the vehicles previous history, very satisfactory altogether.

     I'm a happy customer

Kind regards,    Mark

A quick email to let you know that the Rover 3500S performed impeccably all the way to Edinburgh.  I wish the same could be said for my Vectra which broke down on the A1 south of Wetherby and went home on the back of a breakdown truck!  Modern cars......
I picked up the usual little foibles that classic cars suffer from but nothing I wasn’t expecting and certainly nothing that will cause my any great concern.  Things like a flickering ‘Brake’ light which is common and probably a result of the car having the longest run it’s had for a while.  The most bizarre being the front foglight which comes on when you press the brake pedal. I suspect the other would come on too but the bulb has blown.  The fog-light wiring will be a job for me one weekend soon as when you select foglights on the switch, all the lights go out and the foglights don’t come on.
Anyway, like I said apart from that it was impeccable.  It was a pleasure doing business with you.

Re: TS20 Tiger Cub / Spinning Wheel 

 What I can honestly say with no reservations at all is: "thank you". I know it's not much but thanks for the way the trans-national purchase of the 1976 Ossa 250 cc Enduro has been arranged.
The purchase went rather quickly and so did the delivery. It was well worth it. I am absolutely delighted with it !!!

Hi Adrian

hello adrian, I am very content with the "superb" motor bike. Still thank you with the boys who came to Paris. Or are you on my command for the griffith?

Hi  just to thank you and brian for the great job on the mga

best regards,  Richard

Hi Adrian
Just a note to say how happy I am with the BSA A65 Lightning Clubmans, it really is a stunning looking bike, its just a pity I didn’t have it earlier to enjoy the fantastic summer we had up here this year. It’s very much the case if the rest of the UK has a poor summer we have a good one!!! The bike itself after a number of runs and a few adjustments, which my brother in law has done (he is a keen biker and runs his own garage), is really starting to run well, with hardly a crack or bang at all now after you start her from cold. I thought I should to say you were a pleasure to deal with, with a very relaxed and friendly style and if my wife allows it, you will definitely be one off the first classic dealer’s that I look up for any future purchases.
Best Regards

Hi Adrian,

Just a brief note to stay in touch and mark the occasion that it is actually a year ago today (can you believe it?) that I travelled up to "Spinning Wheel" to meet you and view the Zephyr and, of course, agree its purchase.The car has given me immense pleasure of ownership and it is still exiting just to turn the key and start the engine - quite apart from the fun of driving it.  Many thanks for your help in curing the problem I encountered in the first few weeks.It has covered over 1200 miles this year and been to three shows - picking up a trophy for "best convertible" on its first outing (which was Ford Mk2 owners club).I still regularly visit your web-site to see and read with great interest about the different models you have available.Please remember me to Brian, 

Best wishes,

Mervyn **** (Wisbech)

Hi Adrian.......just to let you know after the minor breakdown , which was soon rectified, the Dommie performed superbly all the way home. I was impressed with its ride and performance...cruising happily between 50 and 70....oil tight too.. after the 220 mile run...on £20 worth of fuel... The engine has lots of torque and i suspect a SS cam maybe inside due to the lively mid to top end performance. I got plenty of looks from passing modern bikers and car drivers alike. I hope you are happy with the Datsun...and the " sidearm "......!! Look forward to collecting the Ducati in due course.....Best wishes John

DEAR ADRIAN,

 I WOULD LIKE TO THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HELP WITH THE DEAL WE HAVE DONE FOR THE TRIUMPH DOLOMITE. I HAVE NEVER MET A CAR DEALER THAT IS SO HONEST AND TRUE TO HIS WORD, WHEN I BOUGHT THE FORD CORTINA OFF YOU I WAS OVER THE MOON AND I ENJOYED MANY MONTHS WITH HIM. BUT AS I WAS WANTING A DOLOMITE AND YOU GOT ONE IN STOCK I WAS TEMPTED TO BUY IT AND TRADE IN MY CORTINA FOR IT, IT TOOK ME SOME WEEKS TO DECIDE TO TAKE THE PLUNGE, BUT I AM OVER THE MOON THAT I DID THE TRIUMPH HAS FAR EXCEEDED ALL OF MY EXPECTATIONS, BEEN AS I HAD NEVER SEEN THE CAR IN THE FLESH AND AS WE DID THE DEAL OVER THE PHONE I WAS PUTTING ALL MY TRUST IN YOU TO LOOK AFTER ME WITH A CAR THAT WAS AS GOOD AS THE CORTINA,BUT WHEN THE CAR WAS DELIVERED I WAS AMAZED TO SEE BEFORE ME A CAR THAT WAS INDEED BETTER THAN I COULD HAVE EVER IMAGINED,. PLEASE FIND ENCLOSED A PICTURE OF THE DOLOMITE SPORTING HIS NEW MINILIGHT WHEELS.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH

GEORGE.

Just a note to say thanks for your help purchasing the mini clubman. I got her home ok Saturday night and is now safely garaged. She is totally as described and i am very happy with her. As discussed on Saturday over the phone, you might keep a look out for a 2000 mini cooper or 2001 mini cooper 500 with very small miles on it, preferably green or blue, i would be interested in purchasing. You might let me know if you do.

 Thanks again, Kind Regards, 

Just a brief note to say that the Hillman is performing brilliantly.  Once again you have supplied a car that is just what was described – a lovely, lovely motor car.

It has solved the problem I was having with my arthritic knee, I took it on a couple of runs last week – about 30 miles the first time and around 60 the second – to visit an old friend with a real passion in cars.  He was most impressed, he drove it briefly and now he wants one as well – well actually he wants a Hillman convertible (he has seen the Marks & Spencers advert on TV and wants one for the summer).

The car drove really well on a combination of dual carriageway, main road and country lanes and so far I am enjoying it.

I will take it to see my cousin in a week or so, she ran Minx’s for years and will, I am sure, be delighted to see one in such lovely order.

Best wishes. 

Alistair

Hi Adrian

Having enjoyed a good relationship with you since the early 90s, initially when I wrote about some of your fine cars from time to time in classic car magazines, I am now writing to you as a very satisfied customer. I have now bought two cars from you "over the phone", the latest one being my fabulous Mercedes-Benz 420SE, and I would cheerfully commend you to anyone, like myself, who lives a very long distance from you and therefore cannot easily inspect a proposed purchase.

The Mercedes is precisely as described by you, both on your website and in telephone conversations. In 50 years of buying cars I have only ever encountered one other specialist dealer in whom I could place such trust. This was especially significant with the 420SE because it was a model I knew very little about, and one of the most sophisticated and complifcated cars of its period, meaning that it was a car requiring particular caution when purchasing.

It is now three weeks since I drove it home to Scotland, leaving Chesterfield just an hour after seeing it for the first time, and it is everything I had hoped it would be. One or two fellow enthusiasts have commented that I must be barking mad to have committed to buying such a car without seeing it, yet I can honestly say I did so without any qualms, and would recommend the same course of action to others in the same position.

The only problem has been the non-operational air conditioning, which you know about, and which I'm sure will be rectified by having it re-gassed. I will keep you informed in this respect.

Once again, thank you for the outstanding quality of your motor cars, your total honesty, your plain-speaking (well you are a native of Derbyshire!) and your friendliness. Spinning Wheel really is a business to be proud of.

Hello Adrian,

Sorry to have taken longer to contact you than I intended, am spending every spare minute looking for excuses to go out in ' matilda'!  I have to say the whole experience of buying a classic car from you was simplicity itself - despite not being able to see her being up here in Edinburgh.  Having never done anything like that before I was quite nervous making the initial contact.  After speaking to you for only a few minutes it was clear that everything about the way you conduct your business was completely transparent and extremely professional.  I instantly felt at ease and trusted you.  Nothing was too much trouble, from sending numerous photos from all angles, detailed history that showed complete knowledge of previous owners, not to mention your passion for the car being infectious!  On top of all of that you and Brian organised the delivery of 'matilda' all the way to Scotland in the most horrendous weather.  You stated that if she was not as described you would take her back as  I hadnt seen her prior to delivery.  True to form Brian did not leave until he was sure we were completely happy with every aspect of the car.  Suffice to say she was even more beautiful than described - everyone should have one and I couldnt recommend you highly enough to everyone who has admired her.  Thank you for making a dream come true!

Adrian/Roy,

Hi Adrian,

Just to let you know that I have collected the Scitsu/Triumph from Calgary, Alberta yesterday. Minus 44 an snowstorms on 4 hour drive back home! No problems with Customs or Paperwork...well done.Adrian. I would like to give you my grateful thanks, the Scitsu is exactly as per our conversation and your website. It is very re-assuring to find a straightforward, honest  transaction nowadays, particularly when you are dealing with somebody the other side of the World. It can be a little worrying! If you wish to use this E.mail as a testimonial or put any potential customer in touch with me, please do so. It was, and I am sure will remain so, a pleasure to do business with you. The bike is beautiful, can hardly wait for Spring!

Kind Regards.John xxxxxx
