I'm not sure a sticky thready of suspect/dodgy cars is a good thing. Who would manage it? Add cars, remove cars when appropriate? It's fine to discuss and talk cars up or down, and anyone doing their research will be able to come across those threads. The car will eventually sell when the prices match, however long that may take.

Once it is cheap enough, it will sell to some poor unsuspecting person - every car has it's price

Looks like it may have been repaired again, or done properly this time. Still missing the spoiler though.

Not very glamorous photo location guessing the owner is a Dentist.

Sending subliminal messages maybe?
'This car will only cause you pain.'
'You might plead for novocain, but you'll really need gas.'
'By the time this car's finished with you, it'll have cost you your gold fillings.'
'I bought this car last year and my mechanic is now my dentist.'
?

Wrong exhaust, no spoiler...and that's what you can see...hate to think how much filler is in the rear quaters and what the subframe and rear tub is like.

If they scrimped on the visuals then it does not bode well for the rest...and the photos are so poor yiu cant tell if the car has been repainted for a second time after the repair or is still like a humbug.

Ahh such a shame to see my old car bodged together. Thought about buying it back when I saw it come up on eBay originally, sadly the kitchen won lol.

Never been a fan of red interiors unless they are on old grey DB5's or white 50's Corvette's and the like.

Pulled from sale. I pointed the seller in the direction of the Copart listing when it was damaged.

In fairness to the seller he was open to it being inspected (are F-tech trading still?).

He then came across this forum and had some choice things to say about the comments on here, threw his toys out the pram and pulled the advert.

There was nothing to suggest he had addressed the comments if forum members who had looked at the car when it was first offered for sale after being repaired.

F Tech have no technicians at the moment and I am still awaiting a reply from Tim re my next service... that was two months back... so I am now looking for alternatives.
