I went to town on the one trying to sell the dodgy VR4 in one of there aother auctions. They are selling a 1992 BMW they purchased last year damaged. So I asked them if it was damaged and they gave me some smart arse answer. So I raised the fact that I realised they had brought it damaged...got a straight answer...althought they talked down the damage.

Sorry about the link, i've imported a few cars into the country, and purchased directly from wholesalers. Any and all damaged vehicles do have a paper trail. TAU does deal in some used cars, but they buy primarily from insurance companies. If you check out there site, you'll also find a wonderful selection of cars that people have commited suicide in.....

Import laws here are fairly relaxed, so it's up to the buyer to do all the homework on any potential vehicle, or just bring one in yourself.

Dodgy bastard has relisted it. Now the photo is from the front so you can't tell it has had rear damage.


This BMW has also had damage, I gave him crap about it last time.

Can someone ask about accident damage on these cars(different person for each car)? I need somebody else to ask because they know I know that the cars are damaged, and I want to catch them lying again.

I want to get this lying bastard kicked off trademe. Look at their answer about fuel consumption. The guy claims he has owned 5 of them and he has no clue that they use plenty of gas.

QUESTION:
"I heard that the prefacelift tiptronic VR4s only had 260HP...would this example be an exception? Also what condition is the bodywork, are there any noticable dents, etc? Cheers"

REPLY:
Hi, I don't know, you could be right I've had 4 VR4's pre and post face lift and they all seemed about the same to me, its a fast car so if its ONLY got 260HP it doesn't seem to be a big problem!! Bodywork is perfect, no dents or anything, couple of scratches on the spoiler, but just the usual. Cheers

[Rossco Type-S]

They are getting smarter with their BS answers!!!

Had a small dent...why does it have a completely new bumper and exhaust then. Man these guys are dodgy!!!

Someone needs to ask them to post a picture of the rear end, also a question about the BMWs accident history, it has had quite a major accident.

[Subaru ETA]

i thought thhis dork had 5 of the boody things?? (vr4s)
just asked if ayc fluid had been changed and he didnt knw what i was talking about!!! "isnt i jsut a computer?" haha hes full of ****!
ive asked for rear end and engine bay pics "coz im interested but its abit far awy for e to got see so can i see some more pics" lol

[bradc]

Sounds like he doesn't know much about them. If it was a manual for $6k I'd consider putting in a bid though.

I don't know...I think they are just BS artists.

They don't want to post that rear pic. Wonder why?

[Rossco Type-S]

This is their excuse for not putting up extra pictures last time.

"I don't list other pictures as I don't want the reg checked and then get it stolen - one of my other VR-4's was... Cheers"

Note how the front picture shows the rego on the current auction!

[Subaru ETA]

the dude is going to email me more pics! keep you posted....

Should be interesting. God these guys are full of it. Once you get a pic of the back you will have to ask about the exhaust and rear bumper!

Still need someone to ask about accident damage on the BMW Schnitzer auction they are running. I can't because they will know I am trying to catch them out.

[Subaru ETA]

ok i have the pics...i asked about the bumper and the lack of vr4 badges....and the fact the tailgate mitsi badge is in the wrong place...
Hi David,

Yes I said on a previous question it's had the rear guard fixed. May
have got the wrong bumper at that stage, I'm not sure - what is the
difference on them?

Someone had nicked the VR4 badge, so I got one and had it put back on
recently.

It is what it is and it's a cheap car, so up to you.

Cheers

for someone who has owned 5 of them one would think he would infact know the difference. i have replied and asked about the muffler.

Either really dumb or really dodgy. Or maybe a bit of both.

How many pics did they give you?

[Subaru ETA]

3 pics. he jsut said that the exhaust comes quite close to the bottom of the bumper... he has now asked me about what the flat spot when you take off could be in it....not something you tell someone who maybe buying the thing!

[Rossco Type-S]

They have listed it. Despite the fact that they have been told numerous times that it is only 260ps, they keep listing it as 280ps.

[Rossco Type-S]

Relisted again. Still full of all the same lies. Still lying about questions on fuel consumption.

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Mo...n-72248430.htm

They have black-listed me so I cannot post questions - dodgy bastards.
