I've even bought a couple as they seemed okay on the test drive, then having driven them home realised I may have made a mistake, or might have been a small niggle, I haven't had much luck recently but I think places like Torque GT offer warranties anyway, but it's a long way if something isn't right!

steveolkinevel Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 The pics dont look too bad but in the flesh is horrible,The front of the car was where the rear of the car was and it was about 2 feet away from the curb so my misses could get out with the pram,There was a sandstone gate post there about 18" squareUnder neith looked ok i thought it was only the rear trailing arm front bush that was snapped but theres under seal popped off in sections from where its bent the floor, wheels fooked too!Damage from the wall, the inner wings bent and the hinges for the door have torn the metal, the spot welds around the door have come apart, the door card has shattered to, front wherl fooked, along with the tyres that i had fitted at the weekend, less than 80miles on em!Like i said it doesnt look bad in the pics but it needs X2 rear quartersX2 doors X2 skirtsX2 wingsFront and rear bumperOsf head light X4 alloys! X3 tyres but may aswell price for 4!Bloody nightmare! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadz-VTIs Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 that looks bad are you going to keep the car or insurance company going to take it??if not take them seats out put crappy ep3 seats get atleast £500 for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Ah man that's horrendous! I reckon they'll Cat C that! Virtually a full car respray by the time they've got all the panels sorted, not to mention you said the floor pan is bent! Gutted! Drink driving voids insurance too so it'll end up coming off your own policy, but I hope there's a way around that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveolkinevel Posted April 25, 2013 Author Share Posted April 25, 2013 Im going to get the car back if i can deffo, prem seats are going for about £700 and mine are mint, but i think they will be going in my next HONDA! If it comes to that of coarse!Wont come off my policy, her insurance will still cover the 3rd party so il be fine but she will get nothing ( pitty she diddnt break her bloody neck), its void on her behalf, that make sence? I made sure it wasnt going to come off mine, my insurance have also said it wont affect my premium either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
