This is really ****ty and a shame as it looked a cracking project... feel for you. If you do go for a refund make sure you get back all the parts you fitted if you can, you must have spent a small fortune already!
Hope you get a good outcome. |

Gutted for you to go through all of this.. Could you not take it a specialist to get it diagnosed and rectified properly and get them to foot the bill?
or ask for a partial refund due to the fault and be done with them. as its such a nice tidy example seems a shame, money spent with a specialist to rectify would be well spent as its only going to go North in value, I know a guy who has an ex prodrive gearbox builder working for him 1 day a week Hope it all gets sorted and you somehow manage to keep her.

Hey Scotty
Bug is only couple paint chips, and black one has horrid scoop so prob will need roof painting, The bug does have the super strong engine and is very clean underneath, shall see . |

|

Hopefully you'll find something even better.
Probably doesn't feel like it today, but it could end up being a blessing in disguise. Don't forget, there was something amiss with the car you had. |

Cheers fella , I see your point . Better to cut losses now than later.

On another note. I keep seeing a couple of sedan legacy with the big brembo's what model are they??
|
#172
|
||||
|
||||
Do you know what model Legacy as no UK cars had Brembos from the factory. Even the JDM twins rolls were a bit paultry in the brakes department.

I am considering putting my current black jdm blob sti up for sale, 60k miles running 436bhp with a sc46 and ap front brakes, need to sort out the time to compose a decent advert at some point. Enjoy it every time i use it but it is far from happy with the 1 mile comute to work so it now spends to much of its time sitting in the garage!!

OOOooofffff!!! Hope you get back your parts that are on the car.
You've been such a gentleman over this so far. |
#183
|
||||
|
||||
Yes that's my car, with the fantastic mods I.e being my system , springs, grp n mounts threw out , my Sti filter , Sti hose kit , Sti braided lines , my wheels , my what ever else if fitted on it ,,,,,,
But yet I can tell you go put it in dccd and drive it as I can tell you it's not fixed Oh and this used to belong to it btw |
#184
|
||||
|
||||
Such a shame. How the hell did they ruin the front wing??!
|
#185
|
||||
|
||||
That's one thing il never know!!! Never saw the car , when I just arrived 6 weeks later and said right what's going on . My car wasn't there!!!! Said to be with a speaclist yet wouldn't give me the nane or location and I said so last thing you changed was driveshafts?? I got a reply yes they didn't cure it. I said what the shafts sitting under that wing!!!!!!! They just fobbed me off wasn't mine yet the pile of bits of mine was sitting there next to the wing and no car present???????
Wouldn't let me take parts as no old ones to put back on nor a refund for them I just walked away with my £7995 and that took days after this issue I was ringing police to report it stolen then bang money was in account before I had chance , I just took it bent over and walked away , I'm meant to be getting my system back but I doubt that .... |
#186
|
||||
|
||||
Also note removed plates that's so can claim fresh import again!!! As other cars on thre site that have plates still on!
Bunch of stealers ! |
#187

||||
|

Really sorry to see they don't seem to have been honest etc Onwards and upwards mate - bigger and better things

all i want is my exhaust back as that cost me £380 then i can put the whole thing down,
All il say is, if you see a car there and its a stunner they will sell you it and do fair few things to please the sale, all well and good, car was spot on, but then you need to walk away ignore their warranty as its crap never let them have it back my mistake, Pressured with having a little one and sorting a house all at the same time , i really didnt have the time so they had it back to resolve why our carried out family life, painting/moving then christmas all in one, in the mean time my car was being trashed, thrashed, crashed, you name it, and was feed aload of crap. take this one, i was told the whole drive train was being swapped from a 1997 sti v limited in blue, when i arrive my suppose bits where laying on the floor of my car and mine had the blue ones drive train, Yet the Blue was just on a test drive so if my drive train was on the floor how was this one being driven??????
