kloon Posted November 15, 2007 Author Posted November 15, 2007 (edited) Couldn't get much off Dez as my fone battery packed in and I was at work when I phoned. What I could gather, the guy has turned up, shouting the odds about wanting some money back, has kicked Dez work van, police are there taking statements etc and presumably shifting/charging the bloke, waiting for Dez to fone back with full details. Oh and he's come up with a seperate car full of "heavies" as back up. Whether if the bloke and his "chums" were tooled up I don't know, can only hope not. Makes you sick all this, have known Des & Donna for many years and two nicer people you couldn't meet and no way would they intentionally rip anyone off. Just hope with the police intervention that there will now be some closure on this whole sorry episode. Ari. Edited November 15, 2007 by kloon
cullenmin Posted November 15, 2007 Posted November 15, 2007 Thats an absolute disgrace that this bloke has driven up to aberdeen with the heavies.

frank c Posted November 15, 2007 Posted November 15, 2007 Very sorry to hear buddy. It's hard enough selling a car sometimes without all this sh!t.. Let us know how you and the family get on.
chris_c201 Posted November 15, 2007 Posted November 15, 2007 Ridiculous, hope the police took the right action and nothing more comes of it!
RA Dunk Posted November 15, 2007 Posted November 15, 2007 thats shockin! hope the police charge the guy for damaging the van!

euan_r Posted November 15, 2007 Posted November 15, 2007 dez is a nice guy. Hope he and family are ok and are not shook up too much. scum trying it on and turning up mob handed
warby Posted November 15, 2007 Posted November 15, 2007 Hope everything is ok, selling mine soon and was thinking about selling away from my house, but then your address is on the V5 antway so no point. CANT BELIVE THIS GUY HAS COME BACK UP, iam not from Scotland but is'nt Glasgow a long way from Aberbeen?
RA Dunk Posted November 15, 2007 Posted November 15, 2007 but is'nt Glasgow a long way from Aberbeen? about a three and a half to four hour drive so not exactly close lol
warby Posted November 15, 2007 Posted November 15, 2007 about a three and a half to four hour drive so not exactly close lol Thats even more mental.
RS Grant Posted November 15, 2007 Posted November 15, 2007 This is totally unbelievable... hope all the innocent parties are ok and this weegie chump & his pals get locked up. In my own opinion: - HPi Clear, doesnt always mean it is a straight car but from the general opinion on here, the car was a brilliant example.. if the seller knows of a dodgy past, they must declare it, but being HPi clear then the seller might not know the complete past of the car if they bought it as a used car themselves. - Turning up mob handed to a family home is unforgiveable and I really hope the 5/0 share my view on this and come down hard on these ar$eholes.. - End of the day, its a Private Sale, as a buyer you are taking all the risk and need to give the car a comprehensive check over yourself or through the AA/RAC for peace of mind IMO.. Cheers, Grant
thefastone Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 Well at the very least I hope thats the matter over now... He's been, and nobodys been hurt and if thats the case thats all that matters. but it should never have come to this...
reidzer44 Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 many thanks for all your comments chaps , yes he did come up with around 6 people 2 or 3 in the scoob and there was 3-4 in a goldish coloured primera at around 4-30pm , my wife got the message at work from zanders (member)missus that he was at my door prowling around so he was early .. i was heading home as it was arranged for 5pm dont ask me why it was that time as at no point in any conversation i agreed to meet him or arrange for him to be at my house for 5pm strange time to be coming up and 5 days later ?? , so my wife was first on the scene passed the car he was inside she got in the house and closed the door then simon (member) arrived next waited for me in the van and we both walked past him and came inside , it was a few minutes later that he knocked on the door my wife donna answered asked what he wanted told her that he wanted his money back as he was not happy with the car was told no way now get off my driveway closed the door , he then knocked again this time his mate came out of the scoob and was watching from a distance donna again answered he then started mouthing off the car and wanted some money back for the paintwork which was going to cost him £800-1500 to sort it had been rolled the roof was crumpled and the panels are all different shades of blue , was told again by donna and by the way if i was aloud outside there would have been world war 3 , as i couldnt get out for simon ,arthur , ect or get a word in ,she tried to close the door and he put his foot inside started shouting donna then pushed him back and slammed the door so anyway he then started taking photos with his mobile through the front window of everyone in the living room ?? shortly after that the police arrived questioned both parties by this time the other car was gone they asked us what we wanted done as they couldn't get involved with the sale side of it but could get him removed we agreed they sent him on his way and that was that never had any calls or seen him again .. so be aware guys this is maybe a lesson to be learned look out for the car in glasgow area please and whatch what your doing with private sales !!!! for those who never have seen my car i have posted some for you spot the damage ?????
reidzer44 Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 most of these photos were taking less than 2 weeks ago !!!
boris b Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 What an absolute nightmare. Glad no one was harmed. Lets hope this is the end of the matter... Just shows how an innocent sale of a genuine car can turn into a whole different ball game..
scoob fae ork Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 Am glad to hear every thing is ok now mate. I cant understand what goes through some folks heads F in delinquent's. Also thats a stunning looking car its just a pity it got sold to an a*** like that
fai17 Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 I'm glad you and your family is alright and nobody got hurt from a sale of a used car... Your car is in ALOT better condition than mines and a true credit to the Bug Eye scoob
sparky_sj04 Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 Glad to hear its hopefully over now mate... and you can forget all about it... Lovely car by the way.. I'll keep an eye out for it down this way, but he'll probably be out racing corsas and running old women off the road... Your car wasn't damaged before but i'm willing to bet it will be a write off pretty soon if the pr*ck gets what he deserves..
thefastone Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 (edited) And to further onto what Des was just saying, I did 2 photoshoots on this car just last week, just before I came offshore... you can see the pics here... First Set... With another member's car... Aaaaaaaaaannnd here... Second Set... Just on its own... Hmmm... Somthing funny going on with my links... Edited November 16, 2007 by thefastone
iain01 Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 Good to hear all has worked out. The car looks a superb example of a well looked after scoob. The tw*t that bought it dosen't deserve it.
billyboy Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 Aye ye can spot that crumpled roof a mile off! NOT.
RS Grant Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 Reidzer, did you buy this from a guy down this way, Tayside/Angus, or possibly up Inverness way as I think thats where he re-located to?? Think he's on here as BigAl or something like that.... the plate and Turini's look really familiar to me, and if its the same car then its an absolute minter that I'll happily vouch for as well. Cheers, Grant
StrikE Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 Get a video survailence recording camera up NOW!! If this guy will travel up fron Glasgow to where you live all tooled up with his m8's then he is commited on harming you or yor property, dont take any chances its not worth it. I hope it goes well for you
