And being told it wasn't accident damaged and 2 years older than the one i bought lolol don't come with 9 years m8, its comes with a life time of being a little con man if you search my threads you will see this has been going on far to long, just winds me up every time i think am a step nearer and then 10 steps back.
PS its a import

Lol slab you really dislike this guy!
Hope you get the problems sorted but the bolt snapping issue is pretty common on an old shell.
Loads of penetrating fluid and leave to soak overnight but sometimes even this doesn't help.
I ended up having to drill snapped bolts out.
What are you building anyway anything fast?

Yes were a limited company: our details are as follows

PMB Performance LTD
Paul Burton

Phone: 01205355977
Email: pmbperf@hotmail.com

we use the ebay accounts
PMB501
PMB502
PMB503

usually different accounts for different types of items.

paul83b is my personal ebay account

SLAB: was it nearly 2 years ago? you had plenty of time to inspect the shell when it was delivered and you paid for it, weve been through this a hundred times, you cant accept a shell and ID, be perfectly happy with it for 6 months and then start complaining and demanding compensation after that period of time. Its a 2nd hand part and a bare shell. there are sales laws and regulations that entitle you the ability to return an item for a full refund with distance selling up to 7 days after purchasing an item. we fully comply to these laws and the rules that ebay and paypal set aswell.

The last time you started a thread like this you ended up asking for it to be removed as a lot of people on here disagreed with you and it was effectively a double post from your original complaint thread. To be honest Im getting fed up of having to repeat myself as has been mentioned before.

we highly recommend that if your local to come see us and see the part you want to buy before purchasing and we'll even offer you a discount for cash on collection.

weve been trading in subaru parts and servicing for nearly 5 years now and rarely have issues like this. we have had complaints as we sell 2nd hand parts and everyones idea of good condition varies but weve always accepted a return or exchange or tried to help the customer the best we can.

Every time this 2002 I MEAN 2000 shell pisses me of, I will comment and your name will be mentioned if its anything to do with this shell.
As for paper work Paul none came with the car or the driver you had it, Managed to get the log book a month or so, after asking for it. Reason they didn't come with the driver Paul you had sent them of to dvl for the private plate to be removed. the one I bought didn't have a private plate because it was a 2002

What comments other people leave you need to take it up with them maybe if you didn't do the same to them as you did to me they wouldn't have a reason to leave a post.

Have a **** day twato
