Does anyone know or have any dealings with Martyn Parkes? He is an ebayer seller and I have been trying to contact the gentleman for the last ten days with no reply.

Here's a link to one of his ads

If he's broken that early Coupe then he wants his balls wire brushing.

Be carefull Emjay.

he's very rude from what i know of him.
Every time i advertise a gt or quattro on ebay he's first asking for a price, then wants it for next to nothing.
Last time i told him he wouldn t pay what i wanted for it (cos he breaks them) and he got all shirty and started ranting about ' you don t know how much money i ve got blah blah'
if he d got the money he'd have bid
timewaster

He sounds to me like he's one of these opportunists who's interested only in the cash angle rather than giving a stuff about the cars.
Having seen him advertise parts on ebay breaking early gt's (get the wirebrush booty!

) id not have anything off him out of principle.

Did you have any joy off him Martin? I was interested in buying a coupe he was breaking earlier in the yr. I'd arranged to collect it but my Bro in Law wasn't allowed to use the vehicle the weekend we'd arranged. So I emailed him to apologise and rearrrange collection. I got a reply back saying he was a police officer and had traced my address down from my msn addy. He would be in my area on training and would call in for the money. I told him (politely of course) where to go and would not deal with. Seems very dodge. But we all have to speak as we find
