Guest girlracer1970 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Whats wrong with it? Got the car to marty and have major prob with the gears, gear selector and syncro meshes gone and possibly need 1st and 3rd gear replaced at £350 each:eyebrows: Intercooler also needs fixed and recons thats why second turbo not kicking in, there is quite a large hole in it. Also rear wheel bearing also ball joint in front, plus rad is too small and out of a n/a So looks like gonna go to a lot of expense to get it fixed, well thats if i dont give it back keighley, but getting a quote for expenses from marty and giving it to my solicitor,so will see what happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 must be an awful bunch of cowboys problem is they have a huge warehouse full of stock, probably the largest stockest of jap cars in the country, so people pop down to view and make silly impulse buys!

Well mine wasn't a silly impulse buy, he was phoned 3 times before i travelled over to buy the car and was told there was nothing wrong with it:taped: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harllequin Posted February 13, 2008 Author Share Posted February 13, 2008 So guys when we going to have a club get together down there then. We can invite the press and go look at all their cars in turn. Supra club visits shady car lot.

Dnk Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Well mine wasn't a silly impulse buy, he was phoned 3 times before i travelled over to buy the car and was told there was nothing wrong with it:taped: Good luck with getting this sorted, you really cant trust some car sales places and have to do youre own investigation as to just how good a particular car is. I almost bought an Audi from a main dealer the other day until i saw the car round the back getting tarted up, wasnt in great shape and getting all the bullshit you can think of. advertised as mint low mileage blah blah blah Also when checking,, check if things have actually been done, cambelt was changed in the service book, but it hadnt actually been done on the car !!! Be very wary when buying cars and pretend there all Arfa Dailys that are trying to sell them to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike B Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Sorry to hear, hope you manage to nail them to the wall. I went twice and walked away. Their mannor was enough to give me the heebies before I even saw a car; and that was 6 years ago... I would have thought most of their cars go to physchotic chavs, so I'm really suprised the place hasn't "accidently burned down" yet, or the staff met with inexplicable accidents falling onto chav trainers. Nice place to work I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest girlracer1970 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Well colin fixed intercooler and now the second turbo works...lol So this is basically stopping any further damage being done. BUT>>>>>>to fix the car not including a re-spray which it will need,as it was not keyed when last re-sprayed, it was costing over 2 grand..So letter from solicitor telling him to take it back,so just playing a waiting game now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzi Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 So guys when we going to have a club get together down there then. We can invite the press and go look at all their cars in turn. Supra club visits shady car lot. Watchdog may even want to come film us I'm up for that. I still can't believe that skyline they were selling about a year ago. It had a r34 front but a r33 back Might still be up for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
