someone bought a 2.5v6 he was selling off him. Bought it for ?2350 and it had been transformed from a 1.2 to all 1.6 gsi spec. When he bought it it had 1.2 standard brakes on it, rusted arches, a **** paint job and not even welded!!! He said it flew but f**k that with 1.2 brakes and for ?2350 f**king hell!
i bought the silver nova over ebay without even going to look at it, stupid i know!
it was dark when i picked it up and it looked a very tidy car but as you all know, it isnt!
the alarm keeps going off all the time, so he removed the siren before selling it, the rear quarter is like sandpaper and has runs all down it, it had no heater controls or matrix but he did send me these through the post. there isnt even a cooling fan on it so it overheats in traffic, there was no air filter in the box, fuel gauge and oil gauga do not work properly, no timing belt covers, and the jetronic box f***ed up causing the fuel pump relay to blow, leaving me stranded in the middle of my town at midnight on a saturday!! there is also some dodgy welding on the o/s inner wing, and he swore blind that the car has never been welded!
so, all in all i paid a grand for half a bloody nova. but to be honest it is quite a solid car exept the dodgy welding and the rear quarter, shouldnt take much to sort out - i hope!!
unlucky this **** has been rippin people off for ages why not try n get some of your money back?
coz i cant get hold of the little b****rd! website is closed down, he doesnt answer his phone etc. however, i can get hold of the adress of his workshop but i dont know if hes still there. i think a few of us should take a trip to Cannock!
he's closed down!! number changed moved house and probly changed name aswell lol trust me I KNOW!!
yeah ive seen the pics of your car, unlucky mate! someone needs to sort him out. didnt you contact trading standards? what did they say?
nout happened got a refund thanks ALEX :) and a few extra bits and bobs to help the car along then relised to my self what a job its gona be and cost me more money.. .so just stripping it and buying a 306td... and then another nova later on in time..
how did you manage to get hold of him in the end? id be happy with a part refund coz i do genuinely like the car, i just paid far too much for it!
i cant believe how long this guys been ripping people off.
if anyone knows how i can get hold of him or even his girlfriend, let me know asap please. i think the threat of some court action should make him think about refunding me!
