Now 3 years later I am actually going to sell it. To build the new garage to keep it out of the weather is more than car is worth & I have come to the realisation that I don't have the time or anymore car covers.
You did the right thing though and let people know when they rang that you had changed your mind. If this guy had done the same I would have no problem instead of telling me after 6 hours in the car.
