Some Car Dealers Must Be On Drugs

[redgriff500]

I went to see 2 968's today both advertised on here - one a private car and it was pretty close to it's description and one at a large trader (must have had 50+ cars there)

Now if you are selling a 968 for £10k on an enthusiasts site then I'd expect it to be basically as described:

Metallic RIVIERA BLUE - It's not metallic (I knew that before I went)

Black Sports Leather Interior - Not the Sports leather just the std leather and it has a big hole in the drivers bolster.

Club Sport Spec - No it's just Sport spec

Immaculate Inside Out - Over spray everywhere from the headlights to the hatch and peeling bits as it was a poor job. One front light smashed the other chipped. Roadstone tyres on the back. Hatch can't be opened from outside, I had to climb into the back.

17 Inch Club Sport Black Alloys - Standard Sport alloys (painted black)

RS three spoke sports steering wheel - Standard sport wheel

ECU remapped 260 Bhp - no evidence of this

MO30 Brakes and suspension And Lsd Upgrade - no evidence of this, not on the options label in the back, no receipts and the brakes and suspension looked standard - in fact the front discs are almost certainly past their wear limit.

Do they really expect the kind of mug punter they might get on a rep mobile to buy an enthusiasts car that's so mis described ?

It was parked alongside but I didn't look at it as I'm not interested in one.

I did notice that most of the other cars indoors (most costing £10-20k) had obvious damage on them.

They were selling an RS4 recently that had had a substantial 'haircut'. Avoid like the plauge I'd say.

No naming and shaming. You are a terrible person and how dare you disrupt his honest business? I hate such as you!

HONEST !!!!

It's a completely dishonest ad.

If I bought it I'd have to spend at least £5k to get it to the condition / spec they say it currently has.

Now I've seen it (and it's been advertised a while) I can see in the pic the light is broken - IMMACULATE - MY ARSE - it's not even AVERAGE.
