VAD Carbon Fibre Wide Bodied GTR | eBay

 

[EAndy]

Seems strange some of the bits complained about.

No stereo
No Sat Nav

Surely you'd know these things before accepting the car and driving off?

trying to figure out how those items are dangerous??

 

[15delux]

Was this the 09 with all the arches?? Why would you buy it in the first place for that amount of money

 

[Mookistar]

Why would you buy it without an inspection more to the point.

 

[ANDY400R]

Not sure where he lost £30k on it, said he paid £64k from VAD but he sold it on ebay for £55k and described it as "This car has been built with extreme skill, knowledge and serviced by people involved in Motorsport", not quite the same as he is saying now that he has sold the vehicle.

Lol

 

[TAZZMAXX]

The old saying 'a fool and his money are easily parted' springs to mind here. Why do some people look to place the blame on others when it's themselves that should shoulder the responsibility?

No sympathy for him.

Cut tyres, rear spoiler fitted with 2 of 6 bolts and incorrect pads sounds plenty dangerous for me.

If you bought it pre owned, you should inspect it first. second hand cars that are sold follow the unwritten rule of "As is, Were is". unless the dealer told you explicitly that they will offer warranty for it.

If you were buying a car for example from svm, they have a good reputation therefore you would assume they can build a car.

The same in this instance

I was referring to the post above mine.... no radio and no satnav...

Agree with the rest, surely you look at the car before you part with £64k

 

[bobbie]

64k spent and did not even have the car checked out, what a knob this guy is.

I can't help thinking 5k to retrim the roof and sun visors in alcantara sounds a bit steep! :chuckle:

Yes, when you consider I got a full nappa leather retrim with diamond stitching in my daily driver for £1,200.

I find it hard to believe people buy cars like that and don't research via forums first. He must be on here?!?!?
