Got another cupra now,what hassle! Thanx guys

[Myki da Pyki]

hey myki, those brakes aren't slotted or vented are they? They like the standard ones we have that only have the holes in the thin side? and not grooved slots and holes pierced through the large surface of the disc?
Like this one:

or

No reuvers they are just plain discs but are vented just like standard ones. Basically a direct replacement but are branded so will be a little better than other cheap brands

that looks so nice mate!

if i could find a dealer round here with one like that (or even one ) id snap it up like a shot

 

[turbo009]

im really pleased with it for sure!!

[sparkie1984]

where did you buy it from mate? looks like a warehouse type place?

 

[Alex.j.89]

its a dealer who has a large warehouse

lots and lots of nice cars in there

even a ferrari 360 spyder and a hummer lol

 

[Alex.j.89]

Im furious
the garahe i bought it off agreed we would take it back for dints to be removed and service!!

so i took it back and guess what

they have blown it up driving it about!!

pissssseddddd offf!!

they agreed to give me my money back

however im now on the hunt for another car

and non are for sale

im sooooo not happy

specially after buying all the stuff for it

i feel ;lucky it did it in there hands tho and im glad im rid of it,if its trouble!!

 

[truCido]

what the hell,! blew it up in what way!?!? thats crazy

 

[Alex.j.89]

what the hell,! blew it up in what way!?!? thats crazy

they took it out for a blast around i assume on the way to the garage for its service and it caught fire

think head gasket went leaked oil onto manifold and caught fire

or so they say

lucky you weren't driving it!

 

[Rocky Rocastle]

no way, what a stitch, yeah you are right though, least it happened whilst they had it and u got your money back

 

[Reuvers]

wow wtf that is crazy...

i guess you are lucky yes, but can imagine that you are well pissed off that you finally got a cupra and then someone else fu**s it up!

what things did you already buy for it?

 

[pj1985]

Thats mental! I take it you have seen the car since they 'blew it up' and got your personal belongings out of it etc. It looked mint. Add another couple of thousand to what you paid for that and you can have my IHI one!

 

[Alex.j.89]

i am now looking for one around 5grand ish

thats my budget,but i really didnt wanna be hunting for one..i thought i had done that lol

i bought german pressed plates(kinda useless now)

brakes all round(allthough not fitted)

lcr splitter and fmic and most of the hoses lol

 

[p34ch3y]

OMG! what a load of tossers,i recon you should send the boys round,thats well gutting

 

[Alex.j.89]

yeh man massivly ****ed off
there is nothing else cupra wise for sale now
everything i was looking at before is sold!!
im stuck atm
think something will be done about them

 

[pj1985]

With all the stuff you have got for it aswell and a little bit of extra £s you could have got an already nicely modded one. Look in the for slae section on here. Nogutsnoglory has a really nice example for sale. If I was looking for an ibiza at the moment I would be going to see his.

 

[ren87]

That's bad luck mate, did you go and see it? Makes you wonder if they made up a story about it blowing up, but really someone else came along and offered more money or something?

Who knows, anyways, best of luck with yuor search!

 

[Alex.j.89]

yeh i wondered that straight away as the was not there 'it was at the garage'
but at that point i was just pleased to have my money back and went!

i can afford tops of 5grand atm otherwise nonutsnoglory's cupra would be mine!!
