Nice cars to sit in, father tunnie is 6ft3, i am 6ft4/5 ish, him in the drivers seat, me behind we both had plenty of room, very surprising for a coupe!

I'd be tempted if it was not for the very poor mpg and oil consumption  :(

I don't think it is.
I think he's taken the pish out of Guy's good nature and spun him and a lot of people on here a sob storey. If his marriage has fallen apart then I do feel for him but to use it to get people off his back is pretty poor. The problems don't go away unless they're delt with and its only a matter of time before people see through all the bull poo.

I is confused .... :(  (not difficult I know) ..... 

Is it proven that he has bought this car ?? or is it one of Pete's wind-ups ???

If it's a wind up .. then I still think the guy 1) deserves some time to sort his life ... 2) should not be subject to wind ups like this that he cannot respond to.

If he has bought it .. then all bets are off and I retract the support I showed him.

No its real, Markey Mark wrote on Facebook yesterday that he had finished work until the 6th and has picked his new RX8 up.

Entwood, I agree he should have time to sort his life but he's had people's money for ages now and had more than enough time to go onto facebook via his phone or whatever, he hasn't even bothered to come here to let people know let alone apologise. I have no time for people that wouldn't even let you know that something has gone wrong but, they're more than happy to take peoples money.

And now seeing that the RX8 thing is real he should be fuc**ng ashamed!! Has enough money to splash the cash on a new car and go out on a drinking session but can't post something to someone or refund their money  >:( >:( >:(

Thanks Pete.....  :(

In which case I withdraw any support/sympathy I endeavoured to get for the man. If he can lash out on an RX8 he can afford to pay back the folks he's taken money off.

I also feel sorry for Guy, who has gone "out on a limb" for him and been decidedly let down IMHO.

Not good ....   >:( >:( >:( >:(

Same, i with draw mine as well. I had the image of him not getting into his house, crashing at a mates, until he gets on his feet.

However one of views still remains, if you want dealer service, go to a dealer. Don't be surpised when things like this happen

Post by: hotel21 on 23 December 2009, 19:48:16
I (and others) are watching this thread with no small amount of interest, keenly awaiting the info from others better in the know advising that this is definately and completely false and MM has no intention of defaulting on previous deals so that he can spend the cash on a replacement car and drink.....

Of course he would not think of spending other peoples cash on a car without reimbursing them first.  Would he??

He would not ignore PM's and e-mails....  Would he?

Again, apologies to some if this sounds too 'clinical' an assesment/interpretation of the circumstances.  Or, indeed, misinformed, as we have no counter information from MM to refute the information posted by others....

Please ignore me.  Its just an auld fert ruminating out loud......   :-X

It will be interesting to see what Guy has to say about this.He is a mate and so far seems to have known more about the situation than anyone else.Taken at face value it does look like he has urine up the back of his shirt,but it would still be strange to find that someone who for a long time provided a good service to people and built up an excellent reputation would suddenly turn crooked. :-/ :-/ :-/ :-/

No one is saying that.

Based on the (limited) information forthcoming thus far it does seem more probable than improbable....

Worse things have happened at sea. I'm not gonna start calling the lad until it all comes out in the wash. If he's going through a bad phase and is behaving out of character then he will either try to build bridges when he is ready or he will disappear without trace. We'll see....

Yup...  Its his hole.  He can either allow it to get deeper or make some effort to fill it in, his choice.  Human nature is such that if there is overwhelming evidence to the one version and nowt to the contrary - perhaps despite oddles of info thats not presented - then the majority of opinion will carry....

As said, perhaps he has larger fish to fry but its strange that he can do other things on t'internet elsewhere and not answer his critics here on OOF.

I feel for Guy if this is true as he is stuck in the middle.

Markie Mark has no excuses, marriage nothing.....if you cant provide the bits in a suitable time frame, then you should not take the money......this to me is theft.....

I've kept out of this so far but this is the most poignant point raised, IMHO.

Regardless of where he sits on the scale between "lost it all" and "new RX8" it is clear that he is spending plenty of time on the internet, was until recently capable of using it to advertise parts and collect money but not to keep those who have parted with their cash updated.

Well if a "bad phase" involves driving off in a new sports car then I cant wait for my marriage to break down...........

To me it appears the whole "lost everything" ploy is a smokescreen.....

I notice today he has been shopping at Meadowhall, most of the time he is out drinking and his mrs has recently had a new pair of tits put in......

Dont sound too hard up do they.....???

I, too, initially supported MM, but it seems this support, and certainly Guys endeavours on Marks behalf, was sorely misplaced. :(

Post by: Lazydocker on 23 December 2009, 21:42:00
I'm sure that Guy will put his hands up and admit his loyalties were misplaced if that is the case.

I hope this is a wind up... At the end of the day Facebook status updates tend to be used as a joke and a wind up ::) ::) ::)

That said, he really should get in touch with the people who he's taken money from :( :(
Title: Re: Congratulations Markey Mark
Post by: webby23 on 23 December 2009, 21:57:34
Why would it be a wind up.......?

People post on facebook the comings and goings of their day to day lives, simple as that.....

I believe every word of it.....

You know, there's allways 2 sides to a story, and untill I have heard from Mark personally I really dont want to comment.

There are lots of reasons why people do or dont do things, but I dont understand why yourself and others are so intent to stir with the big wooden spoon when you were not actually one of the people dealing with Mark for parts.

Yes I totally understand that Mark does owe an explanation, but in all fairness it's only to those whom he is dealing with.

Only Mark knows the facts, guy has offered to try and put things right, so I dont understand why bystanders take upon them selves to sihtestir.

Mark needs to put it right with those he is dealing with, not all the onlookers.

I appreciate the assorted feelings of folks regarding this but would ask that the chap is not condemned outright without his replying, either by PM, e-mail or open forum, to admin and other requests to update them as to whats happening.

Guy - I know that you are currently updating yourself on this thread (admin privelage to see who is reading what) and, hopefully, you have spoken to MM recently to remind him of whats happening here.

i know that, potentially, OOF is possibly waaaay down his list of priorities at the moment but, as always in life, there appears to be an alternate side re. facebook and his ability to purchase a new car.....

To others, please refrain from the quick reposte or similar.  We are attempting to resolve a cash matter here and the waters can be quickly muddied by others and their tuppenceworth.

Thanks for your collective understanding.   :y

I'm really good mates with MM & always will be. Despite this i'm not blinkered. I accept there are issues with parts & money & he is at fault here. Once again i have offered to settle any issues but as yet no one has come forward with a pm & an amount owed so either get on with it or shut the break up & stop mithering on like bunch of old women. If you really have to know the Mazda is on the drip (he won't thank me for revealing this) & his old Nokia phone only runs certain apps.
    Lastly, Webby, you have said he owes you no money or parts so button it cos your irrelevent comments are getting up my nose now. This has NOTHING to do with you. Either we exchange addresses & i shut you up in person or you stop gobbing off on here.

Guy, thanks for that...

As has been said in PM's to you and MM, he has until the end of the month.  After that, if unresolved, he is toast as far as OOF is concerned.

Sorry to sound harsh but despite you sticking up for him as I would expect any mate to, as said already, his slack is already cut.

Surely he does not need to hide behind you??

As to his new car - thats his business, no one elses, especially as to how he pays for it.  Only sticking point is how he perhaps came by some of the deposit, sadly....  :'(

He hardly has to hide behind me. You can buy almost anything off a forecourt with a £99 deposit. As said i'll reimburse those who were barking but none come forward despite being happy to complain....either sh*t or get off the pot.

Post by: tunnie on 23 December 2009, 23:14:20
the problem is, an image has been painted of his 'life in tatters' with regards to marriage and no house and so on.

On the other he has time to browse the dealers, and buy a new car.

If he has the time to do that, he has the time to send parts people are expecting.

My view is Guy, that these people that are moaning, should have a re-think. I've mentioned it before, but if people want dealer type service, then go to a sodding dealer. People have bought parts through MM to get them on the cheap, you can't expect dealer service and reliability, buying cash in hand of someone breaking them on the side.

If they wanted the part that badly, they should have gone to a shop.

The fact he has time to wonder off to look at cars, has not done a lot of good for his profile

Emotions and feelings are running a tad high IMHO and it might just pay everyone to take a deep breath and sit back before hitting the keyboard.

Guy, the Admins, and those directly involved can do their thing .. the rest of us should stop guessing and conjecturing and let the matter lie for a while.

As to his new car - thats his business, no one elses, especially as to how he pays for it.  Only sticking point is how he perhaps came by some of the deposit, sadly....  :'(
He hardly has to hide behind me. You can buy almost anything off a forecourt with a £99 deposit. As said i'll reimburse those who were barking but none come forward despite being happy to complain....either sh*t or get off the pot.

Sorry Guy, above stays the same, irrespective of who pays what to whom.  Least the fella can do is explain himself personally.

Invite him over for a brew and let him log on at your machine?

Just a thought....  :y
I don't care about his status on the forum B any more than he does. If he's toast, fine who gives a monkeys? I'm just tired of explaining again & again & offrering recompense to the bleating minions who mither but won't take what they're asking for. IF YOU WANT YOUR  MONEY BACK PM ME with details otherwise button it!
     What more can i do?
Get him to speak for himself??   :y

    Lastly, Webby, you have said he owes you no money or parts so button it cos your irrelevent comments are getting up my nose now. This has NOTHING to do with you. Either we exchange addresses & i shut you up in person or you stop gobbing off on here.
     BACK IT UP OR SHUT UP.

No I wont mate, I believe, like everyone I am entitled to my opinion on the matter and unless I get banned I will continue to express them......

Open your eyes to this guy.......

 :y

PS Personal threat noted......
Whoopee doo. You note what you want. Look again & you'll see it was an offer not a threat. You have a choice so why not go away & leave those that are involved alone as this has nothing to do with you. Yes you are allowed your opinion which you have made over & over & over & over again despite having no real involvment in said issue.

I dont think its sheetstirring Skruntie.....I think its about facing facts and not being in denial.....

 :y


But you said in the last thread you were going to say no more on the issue, but you dont seem to be able to help yourself, so yes, I do see it as SStirring.

Mark needs to put it right with those he is dealing with, not all the onlookers.

I appreciate the assorted feelings of folks regarding this but would ask that the chap is not condemned outright without his replying, either by PM, e-mail or open forum, to admin and other requests to update them as to whats happening.

Guy - I know that you are currently updating yourself on this thread (admin privelage to see who is reading what) and, hopefully, you have spoken to MM recently to remind him of whats happening here.

i know that, potentially, OOF is possibly waaaay down his list of priorities at the moment but, as always in life, there appears to be an alternate side re. facebook and his ability to purchase a new car.....

To others, please refrain from the quick reposte or similar.  We are attempting to resolve a cash matter here and the waters can be quickly muddied by others and their tuppenceworth.

Thanks for your collective understanding.   :y

I don’t really know what to say.

I do know Mark is in the $hit with marriage etc. However I don’t know anything about the Mazda  :o :o :o

JamesV6-CDX – Knowing Mark, I’m going to stick up for him (only just I must admit), them posts are years old! :-?

Guy – I know what your saying is very true, and generally agree. However, I think due to the time this has been dragged out, its best if either Mark can spend 5 mins explaining on OOF, or you ask Mark and post up his response (however good or bad) :y

I'm not saying anything for / against - as I'm not involved in the transactions.  :y

I just thought I'd share examples I'd seen previously of similar complaints.

Reliability is the key attribute required when selling anything.

Taking money and then not supplying is not an acceptable state to be in and if a sudden personal circumstance has an affect, I dont see it affecting more than 1 or maybe 2 sales and these can easily be sorted in the form of a refund if needed.

I am aware of the FACT that there has been a stream of complaints and issues with 2 sellers on here, 1 of which has not been on the scene for a long time.

Hence, the said person has burnt all sympathy from the majority of members here.

Ok. Calm mode engaged. Last night got a tad overheated to say the least & i didn't help by overreacting & engaging crusader mode...i like Cortinas! Guilty as i am myself screaming & shouting doesn't help alleviate any given problem, in fact quite the opposite so i apologize to any of you i was offhand with. I accept MM has issues to address & he is due for an overnight curry/drink (men behaving badly) here in the new year so if he has'nt logged on here before he will then. My offer of genuine refunds still stands PM only please. I've already reimbused one member & am happy to do so. Apologies again for my childish behaviour. My heart's in the right place but my gob let's me down at times so.....
    Festive regards to all i ranted at. I wish you & your families a happy one, Guy. :y

All I know on this matter is that about a month ago I sent a Fleabay question regarding some headlights he had and received no response. That was a sale opportunity he could have taken.

On the negative side of things, the RX8 is a thirsty wee beastie to run.
