brought his car off him a couple of months ago without knowing he was stitchin people up with his for sale items... cos he apprently was strippin the car. we drove the car off from collecting it late at night *8 hour round trip)
and its didnt run as it should, his mate spoke to me on the phone, apparently a mechanic n said it was the battery, so got it home, n just looked into a few thigs but still havent managed to et it runnin %100
so searched black smoke and look what popped up...

i didnt think to look to be honest but the again, why would i look in search for black smoke? as we didnt even have the car. i cant believe what an absolute badger this kid is...not fooking happy...
if he decides to show his face on here again... do not trade!!!

dont worry mate, most people have been in your position before. and i hate people that are dishonest. i couldnt sell a car like that id feel really bad.
can only learn from your mistkaes and if its a 1.4 sport you can get a new engine for pennies, so wont hurt you to much mate
