Whatever you do, DON'T LEAVE YOUR CAR at Motorland on consignment. The owner, Tim Stentiford, is a chronic liar and a con artist. We left our classic muscle car there on consignment, after signing a contract that stated we were responsible for a $200 a month storage fee, not to mention other crazy fees, something we were never told up front. We were told the car was going into the showroom, but based on the gas used and the mileage, it seems that as soon as we left, Tim's 23 year-old employee, Allan, was allowed to joy ride in it including driving it home at night. We were told afterward by Tim that this is their "policy" as they "need to get to know the car". A week after leaving it, we went by Motorland finding it strange that our car was on the lot and the only car without the big sales sticker on the window. What we did find was that the glass T-tops, now smudged and dirty, had been removed and put back (Tim said he needed to take them out to figure out how they work), black rubber on the rear fenders from burn outs, pitch on the paint from it being parked under trees, pine needles and leaves inside on both sides (there are no trees on the lot) and the ignition having been forced despite our informing these people on the proper way to remove the key. Tim lied and said the car had been out on a test drive, but couldn't remember the man's name and had no documentation to prove it. It wasn't until we got home and checked the mileage that the penny dropped! We went back to take the car (we live 65 miles away) as soon as possible, which meant driving it home in the rain. My husband spent 2.5 hours detailing the car to clean up the mess. It was a nightmare, but it hasn't ended yet as, thanks to the abuse done to this car, it has without a doubt, hastened the need to change the clutch. read more
