Whats was the story Richierich on your mate not getting his van back? May help to avoid any blocking scams in retreval...


cut a long story short, Dougal got alot of inheritance money when he was 18 (father killed in car crash)
moved to aberdeen to be nearer the surf. bought a bay and used this Dave to fix things. went to europe surfing, leaving the bay on dave's farm. came back bought a 65 split and never seen this dave or his bay ever again! tried turning up out of the blue but no-one was ever there. since all this Dougal sold the split and travelled the word surfing. he now ownes a hugh Hymer motorhome and isn't fussed as it was so long ago! hope this helps.

When I had some issues of my own I used this company

Enquiries@trace4u.co.uk

There is a cost to it but they can tell you if this c*ck Suc$&ing weasel owns anything or has ties to anything tangable in the UK.

I also found trading standards to be very helpful.

Good luck. I hope you manage to get a result.

Is this your bay? I have not seen Dave for a couple of years. I think he is now in Goa, India.
This bay went to the crusher with abour 8 others..

Sounds like you know Dodgy Dave :lol: Even his mates called him Dodgy Dave :idea: :idea: :idea:

"Was Scotland" Where abouts?

Dave traded in VWs and did them up (badly) for 20 years at Clola, Before that he was a offshore diver connected to the oil industy. Thats where he is now traveling the world in a suit and tie as the gaffer for a large team of offshore divers.

I have known the guy 20 years and he scrapped a whole yard full of VWs when the scrap price was low and got £500 for the lot, I looked at everything in the yard and to me it was just scrap too.

Hope this pale blue bus is not the one??

Kincardineshire and work in Aberdeen - past there a few times on my way to do jobs on ships in the North East. Also known to frequent the odd dive ship myself so good chance i might bump into him once i come back soon! I'm sure the boys in the chambers would not be too happy that he is other wise known as 'dodgy' - eek! :D

Was this like in the 80s maybe 90s?
All the buses n bugs scrapped had sat outside with no love for a decade at least!

I rescued a splitty from there years back..
