eBAY idiots Part 2
I have an ESCOS Rep for sale on ebay
*EDITED - LINK REMOVED BY WEBTEAM*
I took it back in a deal and it went straight on ebay as to me its a Rep and dont interest me.
But fook me after days of answering idiots questions i get this one today.
hi mate do you have any pics from straight side on?
just that i know 'genuine cossie wings' feck up rep arches, making the wheel look as if its too far back, but you're pics seem to have been taken with this in mind.
cheers

I cant even remember what i replied but knowing me proabbly summit sarky as the EScortPower Massive make me Giggle.
So i got this back
mate, real cossie front arches need modified to make the front wheels sit in the middle of the arch.
if you didnt know, escort cosworths are based on a sierra floorpan which is different from an escort one. also the hubs and front suspension/wishbone set up is completely different. hence the GENUINE cossie arches will make the wheels on ANY replica sit too far back in the arch.
as for rear 1/4 panels, how were they fitted? was the full original metal 1/4 cut out and the new one welded in place?
tbh mate i dont think you dont know as much as appear to on the listing. i asked a genuine original question, simply because i know after quite a while of trying to find companys to custom manufacture front cosworth wide arches for a mk5.
lol
It has to make you Laugh i've prob owned more RS's than this guy has ever sat in.
Someday he might get an real ESCOS instead of being a WANABEE ESCOS Guru.

Yes that i agree with, so i sent him a nice GENUINE Reply, its his second reply that made me laugh.
It obvious he dont want the car going by his questions.
It states in the listing i just got the car so knowing how things were fitted is a tough one without a crystal ball

If you were sarky then expect a response that is not friendly.

funnily enough here i am reading this.
cheers fella..
it was a genuine question as i was genuinely interested ( unfortunately i am an "WANABEE ESCOS Guru" simply because i cant afford a genuine escos)
the reason i asked the first question was because there are several people who list 'Cossie Reps' with 'All GENUINE PANELS' when in fact they are fibreglass. of course the fibreglass kits look better as the genuine ones do as i said in my original question. hence, me asking for a side on pic.
convenient that you cant remember your reply eh? would you like to know what ur reply was retard?.. yes?
"yes mate they are all genuine panels"
hmm... so you obviously being more of an 'ESCOS guru' than me are in fact now a proven liar too (due to statement in your reply). AGAIN another reason why i asked for pics, some assholes on ebay havent got a clue WTF they are selling (prime example)
"It states in the listing i just got the car so knowing how things were fitted is a tough one without a crystal ball"
IF you had just bought the car as you said and wanted to sell it on ebay then FFS dont lie about it. a simple "im not sure mate, i think theyre genuine" would have done.
oh and i never asked HOW it was fitted did i? no. all i did was ask if it was genuine panels, my 2nd email to you was simply explaining why i was asking as obviously you didnt have a clue, and tbh it looks like you still dont.
aye is that funny? difference is mate i bet mummy and daddy were real nice to you as a kid andbought you all the latest barbies that your friends had. mine didnt. i work hard for my money and pay bills and just manage to survive with my poor little 1.6 escort, sadly i cant afford RS's. but nice to know that people dont look down on those less fortunate than themselves anymore.
so please, in future, have a think about what you're posting before you try make someone out to look like an idiot when in fact all it has done is show how much of a bellend you are.

his reasoning behind the request is perfectly acceptable IMO
