As long as the guy isn't planning on running it off a cliff or
smashing it with a train for a movie, I say sell. Would it worry you if
the car was going to Oregon?, California?, BC?.
I think you should count yourself lucky that he matched your
asking price. It also seems like the market for American LBC's in
Europe is softening, so he may not make the profit he thinks unless
he already has a buyer lined up.
