Default Another classic thread on VX220

Some dude attempts to sell a Cat-C car as new.. mods investgate:
he gets pulled on it denies that 'imi' who was after the repair stuff for a VXR is him (even with photos). Then mods find that imi and the seller have the same registered IP.

Took me bloody ages to read the whole of the thread.

Read the first couple of pages only. Then it just gets repetative and the guy concerned never says anything significant.

If people check the car before purchasing they would see that the car is a Cat C.

I know my company sells the product, but for

Funny to start with but a bit repetitive - Caveat Emptor

Its up to 50 pages now.

Seller claims that the car isn't registered on the insurance register.

Is your comment from actually looking up that registration Moff? If it is then this Imran character must be more than just stupid.

No I didn't check and I now have checked.

I would like to change what I initially said from:

"If people check the car before purchasing they would see that the car is a Cat C."

to

"If people check a car before purchasing they would see if the car is a Cat C."

I was assuming the car was a Cat C from Joper90's initial post.

I have now checked it and it has never been a write off.

The guy however does have to declare if a buyer asks if the car has been involved in an accident (if he knew).

However, anyone claiming that this car is a Cat D or Cat C is wrong.

If guy Imran did not ask the previous owner when he bought it if it had any accident repairs, he hasn't got a leg to stand on - assuming this is a private sale.

Not sure what the issue is.

The car wasn't a write off, it's been repaired, assuming the repairs are good it's worth no less than any other.
