Hello everyone,
I have been a member of many forums of de Tomaso for more than 10 years, it is my son who posted this message, and I told him not to use my personal account because I saw some unpleasant comments and do not want to be linked to a school battle.
We own more than one de Tomaso, including 8MA-1266,
That being said, everyone does what they want, some prefer documenting autos, some do not care. It takes everything to make a world.
Regarding my own experience, I already made 1200 km to go to the factory because Santiago promised me that he could look in the archives.
When I arrived, he was not there and never answered the phone again ...
This is the reality that I lived, so I would be very happy to deal with Vito if I need something.
Regarding your comments on reports, I myself have a Massini report for a Daytona, but Massini is not Ferrari, you receive a paper written by a passionate journalist, nothing more.
Massini is not Ferrari, it's nobody, besides I got it by buying the car but I would never buy anything from him, he does not take over the factory, he is nobody.
On the other hand, if I can get my hands on an original document from the de Tomaso factory, this is quite different in my eyes, but I respect those who think it's worthless.
Everyone does what he wants but my opinion, when you have a perfectly documented Mangusta, it increases the value above 300 000 euros and it is a very good investment.
My opinion only, my 2 cents
No need to epilogue,
I live in the south of France.
I let my son manage now his account, I manage mine in discretion.
And as you delete the previous post, I was right to think that I do not want to be involve in the school fight
As Voltaire said
« « I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it »,
Are you going to delete my posts because I express my opinion ?
