If i was in either of your shoes I would take the initiative and talk about joining forces, sharing marketing, cross referring customers.

The Haynes is a great car and you are both competant and pleasant guys who deserve to make a fair living from it. It is seriously worth just agreeing to disagree and moving on.

Arrange a meeting, talk. Just do it or you will both lose out.
Clearly one of the most sensible posts so far in this discussion.
