Hi, everyone, i am trying to contact the guy https://www.leboncoin.fr/voitures/10504 ... tm?ca=12_s but it doesn't seem to be working, maybe because i'm in the states till new year and my IP address is causing issues, can anyone see if they can make contact,

As long as he got paperwork to go with it so i can get it nova'd i not fussed about year, if it hasn't got paperwork it could be difficult to sort but still doable, i guess if it is a 65 it would be a shame to use it
