I entered into an agreement with Jaguar Central (Cailifornia)(Mike Cummings)to purchase a restored 1974 Jaguar E-Type Car. Part of the agreement was that I would have myself, or an inspector check the car before it was shipped to me in Florida. When JC said the car was ready for inspection I flew a gentleman in from Nevada who owns two of these cars and if very familiar. My inspector inspected the car and reported some items on the car that needed to be taken care of. Mike Cummings and my inspector signed the list of items to be rectifed before delivery. Mike Cummings assured me the list would be completed before delivery, but he would need about one week to complete the list. I then wired payment for the car in full.

About one week later before the pickup occured I asked Mike Cummings , Is everything on the list complete, he replied the list is done. Mike Cumings was also to inlcude with the shipment of the car the original bumpers and overriders that I had paid for seperate from the car.

When the car arrived to me in Jupiter FL, the car would not even run. 75% of the items on the list had not been completed. This included A/C not working, car not charging due to bad alternator. I contacted Mike Cummings, he told me to stop whining, that he would make good on the parts, but not the labor to make the situation right. I said send me the parts, but that the labor also should be covered. To date he refuses to send any parts to me, or take care of the labor. It cost me 3100.00 for the repairs.

I guess you found out the hard way

AUTHOR: Mrkah - ()

POSTED: Monday, April 08, 2013

I guess by now you found out that Cummins is a crook and he's not smart. He's in jail now and that's exactly where he belongs!

Beware of Mike Cummins. A Liar. Thief. Con-man

AUTHOR: sbasandiego - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Friday, September 04, 2009

Mike Cummins has defrauded/stolen more than $600,000 from 10 different parties.  He is the ultimate CON-man.  Lies.  Cheats.  Steals.  Has no conscience.  Only lies when his lips move.  His wife, Cheryl Cummins is part of the team, a CON-woman.  BEWARE!

greed is running jaguar central

AUTHOR: Customer - (Denmark)

POSTED: Sunday, June 21, 2009

I purchased 3 cars from Jaguar Central/Mike and cherylCummins May 2007 - may 2008. Cars were to be fully restored to concurs condition in 4-6 months. Paid US$220,000 total. Jaguar Central/Mike Cummins did not restore any of the cars per our agreement. After 2 years+, I demanded return of the 3 cars, found them to be in junk condition, worth no more than US$20,000 for all three.
jaguar central refuses to hand over original parts for my cars.

I wonder if you are the same Clause that has now also been taken advantage of by Mike Cummings? How much did you lose. Now you know, the hard way.

$3100 is a small price to pay.

AUTHOR: Mrkah - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Tuesday, August 19, 2008

If the people at Jaguar Central were smart, they would pay the $3100 and give this guy his parts. I restore classic cars for a living and I would never tell one of my customers that just payed me $62,500 to stop whining after, a car I just sold him would not start at delivery. Once the word gets out, they will lose a lot more than $3100!
