JimmyGlen 13 Posted May 2, 2019 How this firm are still in business is beyond me. You only need to google them to find scores of threads across dozens of car forums about how shady they are! They've had some cars for sale for years and years. I certainly dont think they'll be closing their doors for a measly 53k.... Money certainly doesn't seem to be in short supply!

Why would they be easy pickers? They are a national company and should have better quality control than a one man band or small company. You should read the article...

I never said it was how things should be done however it is fact that they are easy pickings, why not go after the one man band buying rubbish from the auctions knowing its faulty cleaning it up hiding said faults pay as you go mobile and selling it on to someone normally not able to afford the losses they do not pay any revenue insurances the list goes on they add nothing to society but headaches and misery... no far to much like hard work. early morning rant over i need more coffee.

Far to much like no chance of them paying up a fine and generating any money. Probably similar ethos to proceeds of crime. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
