Not to be Trusted!
I informed Tom Hartley i wanted £70k for my Ferrari 430 Spyder 60th anniversay model to which he agreed, Out of courtesy i picked up his employee Dave at the airport, took him to my home where he inspected/drove my car. He then told me the process is Tom will call me following his feedback to Tom. He warned me i wont like the call as he is a hard man to work for with a very high turn around of staff! With that in mind Tom called me to state categorically my car requires " a new, roof, full front end repray, a complete new underpan plus a few other things which will cost at least £15K" He followed this up by stating these repairs require doing whether he buys it to sell or i sell it to someone else! ie The repairs MUST be done prior to selling! THOSE WERE HIS WORDS! For this reason he offered £55K taking into account £15K for repairs? Trusting Tom Hartley at his word i negotiated a bit but he convinced me "by the time I F around trying to get these repairs completed there is no-one can do it cheaper than him at £15K! After a bit of duress i agreed to accept £58K on the basis of his point as stated. Dave drove my car away then 2 days later to my shock my car was advertised at £99950 with NO mention of repairs required! 2 days after that it was sold having no repairs performed as he claimed! Tom Hartley cannot be trusted and is not a man of his word despite his claim. I watched his son Carl on tiktok stating when a buyer is looking at a 10 or 20 year supercar and points out flaws he tells them "you dont want to be buying a 20 year old car at £50K you want to be buying a car at £150K which has no flaws. They use the same technique when hustling the sellers they buy from! I put my trust in Tom Hartley given his brand but i have been left completely gutted, conned and dis-respected! Tom Harley cannot be trusted! BUYER or SELLER BEWARE!!! I will see him in court!
