Hold on - Just go back and tell them what you told us here. YOU know what's not right so go back and tell them asap. You don't have to be a bitch just state the facts, plain and simple.

^^^ agreed

[Rant]

sh*t like this makes the blood boil. You've been fuked over by the person who keyed you car, you expect everything to be sweet since you've paid the cash. They didnt replace sh*t either, nor told you about replaced items...
:evil: :evil:

I agree, go back and be civil. But if necessary, be a bitch about it. It IS YOUR property after all. Do you have any pics of the interior of your car where you can see what was originally there?

Threaten a call to the Police, it is theft after all!!!

Wouldn't surprise me if someone swapped the entire seat over and is using your perfect one in another car/project now. It is a common problem that the side bolsters on drivers side break down, check your seat (where your hip is).

I hate assholes like that... :evil:

Youre having a real bad run arent you. It shouldnt be this hard 8O .

BTW, I can get brand new genuine stereo surrounds as well. If you are interested, let me know. Delivery time would be a couple of weeks.

nawwwwwwww :(

this reminds me of the story of when i bought my car. i got majorly f*cked over so bad.. everything just went wrong.

in fact i'll tell you my story so you don't feel so bad :D

so the car was meant to cost me $10k right.. and thats all the money i had saved up..
so i put down my $800 deposit and then a day later the seller rings me and says "i don't have time to get a roadworthy done but don't worry, it won't need anything"
and i'm like "wait wait.. no deal. give back my deposit"
the b*tch refused. i was gonna seek legal advice but in the end i was just like f*ck it. i'll trust her, coz i really wanted this car..

anyways, so i take it down to the mechanics to get it roadworthy hoping it would only be like $300 or so...

$3500 for roadworthy.. it needed EVERYTHING. suspension, radiator, brakes, windscreen etc. etc.
i had no idea.. we even took it for a test drive and nothing felt wrong

then i got a call from the bank to tell me that my bank loan had been REJECTED.
i then had to beg my mum to cover the rwc costs and agreed to pay her back.

everything was sweet.. i had my car, just a big debt...

anyways, a week later the stock stereo died, the aerial broke and all the dash LEDs stopped working.

my mate hooked me up with a $2000 stereo for $1000 and said to pay him for it later. fixed the dash globes with a lot of work.

about 3 weeks later i noticed the seatbelts didnt retract... told my mate to have a look at them. turns out they didnt LOCK either. so there i was driving round in a car that virtually had no seatbelts..
called toyota.. $720 for new belts..

drove round the car for 3 months with dodgey belts then won some second hand seatbelts for $100 off ebay :)

ohh and a while after that my car got keyed!
managed to fix it with a cut and polish but the paint is all dull in that spot now

anyway, thats all i can remember off the top of my head..
i've had the car only 8 months. so far (including insurance, rego/stamp duty) the car is approaching the $21,000 mark !!

8O

i have finally payed off the money i owed to my parents and even bought myself a set of new wheels. things arent too bad now :)

but yeah, next time you think you've been f*cked over, just think of what that seller did to me! :lol: I got scammed hardcore!



edit: ohhh and just remembered i had to rebuild the transmission :D

nawwwwwwww :(

i'm sure everything will turn out okay.
they've obviously done it thinking that you wouldn't notice. you have noticed, so they WILL NOT get away with it.
if you can't solve the problem, i will. i don't care if you're up in the northern suburbs. i will drive up there and find whoever is responsible and give them the biggest f*cking serving they have ever experienced.

i hate to see people treated like this :evil:

you can get new cigi lighters preety much anywhere... They all fit, @ autobarn and other shops you can get coloured ones and LED lit ones. $5-$30 depending on how fancy you want it.

Trawl ebay - you might find some nice ones for the price of biscuits :D
