Unless you genuinely want to buy a car from them, you shouldn't really be rumour mongering by repeatedly posting about their status, in my opinion.

I don't really know the lads, but if they are in the process of updating their website or moving away from carzone then give them a chance!

I'm in a dispute with carzone myself and am considering moving premises, I think it would be bad form if someone opened a thread implying I was gone out of business if I did tell carzone to sling their hook!

In fairness to the OP, when a motor company does go under the website is usually taken down or not updated in a long time, so the OP question was genuine without rumour.

If the company was still trading and had a dispute with Carzone, the least they could do is put up a notice on their website with a dated notice to apologise and we will be back up by xxx date

Absolutely, if it werent the first time the op opened a thread on rich ford in 2 days!

Also, perhaps carzone created and host their site? Carsireland host mine, so I guess if we got in a row my cars would disappear off their site, app, and my site would now need to be hosted elsewhere.

Rich ford may be gone, but to post twice in two days asking about it on boards strikes me as over the top.

I don't think the OP is spreading rumours or implying anything; its just a question to be fair.

Ahh, opening 2 threads on same subject?

A big no-no. (I missed the first one)


@ Almightly Mods, merge/delete/close thread?

I pass their old premises regularly and the place appears to have been closed up for a few months now. Pity because they used to have some really good high end stuff during the good times.

I am interested in what they have for sale and as I got no proper response in 1st thread it's understandable why I person would put up another Thread Plan on looking up whats on used market over Xmas so get off my case !

The signs came down from their north quays showroom just after the Tall Ships Festival a few months back.
