Default Prompt

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the advice and prompt replies.

Any particular reasons why i should stay away?. Would save me 50 quid as im travelling from london.

Everything looks cheap, maybe a little to cheap?

Kind regards
Pete

Dan- it was a car off ebay that was sold as a reshell- somewhere somehow Keeley got hold of it after the ebay sale- was aubergine and pictured with a bonnet light pod.

As for how it was sold then who knows..

AUTOTRADER they look good went myself everycar has fell off the moon and some lad was kickin off cos he chopped his civic type r (show car ) in
for a evo 7 what a fookin dog it was ?

He was with 4 lads and a toe truck aparrently it didnt even get him home back to fookin scotland they said he could swap it for any of the other cars
WHICH BY THE WAY ALL LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE FALLEN OFF THE MOON

Its probably the worst car sales place i have ever been and some of my friends didnt believe me and had to go and said what a waste of petrol!

To buy a car off them u would have to be a goalkeeper short of a football team period!!

mate of mine knows it well, as stated in other thread, they have a history of telling you the car is an import with only one key, only for you to take it away and wake up next morning to find it gone cos they have visited your house and taken it away with the second key!!

they are fookers!

Viewed a mallard escos when I was looking for mine and after being told it was mint and looking quite nice in the pics did the 1.5hr drive down. Can only describe the car as an absolute shed, loads of rust and sounded like a tractor.
