At the end of the day i'm not saying that fingers clocked it, but he 100% knew there were issues that should've been disclosed.
thats the thing, weather he clocked it or not, he knew the problem, and should have done as dub did and get his cash back from his seller, one way or an other. Although i get the impression from some of the pm's i had that this may not have been possible for some reason.

The clocker should be found imo. if possible.


mate, theres too many things wrong to get to the bottom of this.

he advertised it with FSH in feb, then says he couldn't get it from the previous owner as he wouldn't send it on. It was already with the car as i found it

he said he owned it since early 08. I've spoke to the chap that actually did and he checked his accounts for me and he paid the cheque in from the sale oct 08, he'd owned it from 2005 with 10k

he then said he owned it from nov 08 when confronted with the above. that means he mot'd it in sep 09 with 232k on it

he posted in jan'10
Quote
i've just bought a 3.2 elite today and the satnav disc is stuck
that contradicts the above 2 posts

he's apparently posted mots and bills that prove it's on 94K. can't see them turning up.

the chap that put all the miles on it was the second owner, that means it's had a further 5 since oct 08, anything could've happened to it to be honest.

I would have thought that the simplest course of action to take is to present all the available evidence to the appropriate DVLA office and let them take it from there.

I would also suggest that the following is inappropriate for publication on a public forum. :y

To be honest i don't really deal with the police, i have my own way of dealing with situations that normally gets me the results i want.

Not that unlkely.... I used to do a minimum of 2k/week a few years back. MDTM must/did clock up some miles too.

But... It is a lot of miles to be doing, especially as I expect the servicing was to Vx schedule and not "Good Practice" timescales ::)

i see your point, but its a trail the police should be given the chance to follow. But as you've given your word and money back, you've suffered enough and had enough agro....fact remains though, fingers will try to sell it again, and will continue to do so until someone gets shafted. Surely?

thats all down to one's interpretation of what i said.

i never said i hung him off a motorway bridge with bamboo shoots under his nails , lol

i just formed a very clear cut case of what was wrong and what i found out,and what was required to rectify it, this got the desired result without waiting a long time for the authorities or British judicial system. :)

If the police are involved the car may well be confiscated then crushed

Thank you for the clarification dub and you're right - it's all down to the interpretation that's why I suggested that the comment was inappropriate. :)
