Well I ended up NOT getting the car...and advice for anyone else...DO A CHECK BEFORE BUYING....

That's all i'm saying....If you require further details, PM me.....

whiteminks · Post by **whiteminks** » Wed 14 May, 2008 09:33

Sorry it didn't work out BackAgain.

I hope you find one that suits you soon

BackAgain · Post by **BackAgain** » Wed 14 May, 2008 09:52

I am upset because I was/am a genuine buyer....

Also the ad has now been withdrawn??? Funny that.....

321bhp · Post by **321bhp** » Wed 14 May, 2008 10:38

well lets all keep a look out for it in the future then,hopefully he will list it properly next time like you said,always do a hpi check plus a damage check i always do,you never know what will come up

BackAgain · Post by **BackAgain** » Wed 14 May, 2008 10:44

I will always do one now....I am still in shock as it goes....!! I'm just trying not to let it put me off completely...

So come on then....spill the beans!

It sounds like a nightmare.

What was the problem?

BackAgain · Post by **BackAgain** » Wed 14 May, 2008 12:07

To be honest, i'm requesting permission to put 'some' of the details up, from an administrator....because this could go a lot further...

Sherlock Minks has found out the problem with that car ( assuming it is the same one that has just sold on ebay

)

yes,yes,yes,thats more like it for a ,Car was accident damaged in August 2001 but was fully repaired and passed a full inspection. HPI report also now having passed the inspection appears clear.

thats not a bad price now,£10,000 was a little on the dear side

Andrew330Ci · Post by **Andrew330Ci** » Mon 19 May, 2008 17:38

Ummmmm sounds very suspiscious still I didnt think once it had been repaired and even expected you could get the marker removed?

I'd be intrigued to see if it is still on the HPI or Experian which ever one is not shown.

Well, there seems to be a few lemon's out there. I've had a few near misses recently and I'm glad there are so many watchful eyes on this forum

BackAgain · Post by **BackAgain** » Thu 29 May, 2008 07:01

Go away for a week and it all goes to pot...

So he's actually admitted it was an accident damaged car now!! Which when I asked him he said no, it wasn't.

Well now he's admitted it he has to give me my deposit back...legally....

Great searching guys...

S, print that advert off if you can, as the completed listings on ebay only stay live for so long.

Then you may be able to use it as some sort of evidence.
