On America’s best (or worst) online auction site there’s an ‘09 Vantage six speed ending today. The possibility of it being jacked up incorrectly for a tire repair has re opened the entire story of the Vantage that was totaled by insurance for having all four corners similarly damaged. No way of knowing what is fact or fiction, as the thread has been locked down. I would argue that for a current or future owner this should be dispelled as myth or confirmed as fact. My question to Chuck, or anyone else, why has this subject been locked?

I’m obviously not an Aston owner, but do like them a lot.

 

I went back to December and can’t find a single locked Aston thread. Are you sure it was locked? We don’t allow links to ads on auction sites so perhaps it was removed for that. I’ll try to find it. Do you remember thread title? I don’t see any problem with a discussion about the vehicle in question.

 

Thanks HSM, that is a huge help…I think I see the issue.,,that was a six year old thread that hadn’t been posted in since 2016. A new member came along and revived a dead thread. When that happens it is usually a bot and the thread was removed from view. I don’t know how useful to current members a six yr old thread can be. I’ll look at the thread to see if there is any useful info in there. When you see an old thread like this one and you wish to continue to discuss please start a new thread with a link to the old thread rather than posting in a six yr old thread,

 

Thread restored. There aren’t any new posts since 2016 but perhaps this guys problem will help someone else.

 

Thanks so much! Great to have a moderator so involved… Very much not like rxxxlist. Whom I paid to renew my membership with and received nothing. All my attempts at bringing this to anyone’s attention have been 100% ignored.
Chuck could you put up a link to that old thread for us?

 

HSM was gracious enough to post it above but here it is again,,,

I’m getting an “invalid thread” message when I click on both links posted. Anyone else?

 

Ouch! It works for me. Please post if not working for you.

 

Nevermind, there is something wrong as I tried to post in the thread and it wouldn’t let me. Give me some time to iron this out.

 

Fixed….I think!

 

Yup! Works for me. Thanks!!

 

It's funny how different you remember something from 6 years ago. Time is a memories worst enemy!
