Default Timewasting ******** cost me nearly 24 hours of my life...

Wasted yesterday travelling 1000 miles for a car that my friend had decided that he wanted from the description, pictures sent and from questions and answers which they had about condition, mechanicals etc...

Just in case anyone is in the market for an STi Type R then this is the car in question, which has also been for sale on Pistonheads.

You can see comments from the seller, my mate (Melly) and me...

Total waste of time and money, 1000 mile round trip..

Can't believe the guys brass neck at letting us travel such a distance knowing that the car he had described was complete fiction. If that car is "very good condition" then I would seriously hate to see what his idea of an average car is.. more than likely be sitting 3 cars high at your local scrapyard.

Had a good laugh through the day, real shame that we weren't driving home in a Scoob, but nothing handles being nailed to the floorboards in 5th as well as a hire car... so the trip home was probably better that way!! Oxford to Perth, 386 miles, in 4hrs 40mins.


Cheers,
Grant
