Super Zedy to the rescue!..
Mo is coming to pick me up, armed with a towbar, and a trailer - thanks very very much mo, cant say how much i appreciate this!!
apparently, he's gone back to NZ..
so, if any of you NZ'rs bump into him... give him a friendly smile.. a Chelsea smile that is.. of course im kidding, and wouldn't condone this..
Was shocked when you told me mate :Cry1:
JUST SORTED CAR OUT SO ILL CALL U TOMMOROW
NO More VR4 for me, well ive still got the 6G
Huh?? :eek: They've gone bust? :INSERT INTO post VALUES (
Unlucky for 'em!
You should be able to retrieve your car without a problem as for proving it's yours.
But if it is still in bits, that is a huge kick in the..
I don't know the whole deal so I can't give any advice, was you paying for work from your own money? if so how much did you give them to how much work they have done, can you walk away and have it repaired elsewhere? was it their fault your engine popped? INSERT INTO post VALUES (perhaps the expense of Mitsubishi parts got to 'em) They must have some sort of insurance still to pay you off unless they really went under and did a complete runner..
I don't know what to suggest mate. :confused:
Oh Sh!t, I'll be on the look out for him with my :gun2: :gun3:
I wish I was there to give you a :bighug:
I'll be thinking of you!

Honey, I never drive faster than I can see, and besides... it's all in the reflexes
Christ! That's terrible:INSERT INTO post VALUES (:Cry1:
I'm so sorry to hear that. I can't offer much in the way of help, but my thoughts are with you.
I'm sure that you'll get her back, and get all fixed up in no time.

:GL:
ill have the car back tomorrow, with help from Zedy.. INSERT INTO post VALUES (thanks again mate)
might take a while to locate all the bits of the engine :INSERT INTO post VALUES ( which might be an issue, cos if i leave something im buggered..
the garages i spoke to weren’t best pleased of being asked to put a puzzle back together.. specially as a couple of them have never touched one.. so i think, its going to be a long long mission to get my engine back together.. :Cry1:
I have some more info - they appear to have gone back to NZ.. Christchurch is where Peter Batchelor and Amy Veldstra INSERT INTO post VALUES (not dropping names or anything) have possibly gone to, that’s where peters Dad lives... Or they have gone to where Amy is from Timerooh, or Timerue ? not sure of spelling
ok, secondly, he used to run a dealership in NZ called Tokyo Cars, presumably in Christchurch.. this aswell went down like a lead balloon..
that’s about as much as im going divulge at this minute in time..
lets hope we find a few spares
Yes Timaru! Good try Barry!
Still thinking of ya!
Pescha!
ok, operation "rescue-mauve" is about to commence.
A full run down of events will follow upon our safe return..
:GL:
I had a friend with a Mitsubishi GTO who went through a similar thing. He ended up getting compensation from his credit card company - apparently if you spend more than £100 on a credit card, then the credit card company become liable for the whole transaction if anything goes wrong.
Hope this is helpful, and hope you get your car back and working soon.
:GL:
Did you get your car car back ok Barry? Out of all the people on the workshop side of things i feel most sorry for you, Pete took the piss out of you because your a nice chap.
