Noooooooo!

Gutted atm, but gotta thank Tony at Brighton Mitsubishi for his detective work..

He picked up the black fq360 X for me today from the other dealership, and set about giving it a service.. It was then that they discovered an oil leak.. So after further investigation they discovered that it was coming from the oil pump, which by the looks of things had been damaged in a crash.. The crash wasnt registered, so he had no knowledge of it before taking it back to the workshop

He said it was completlely fixable, but you never know if theyll be any issues down the line because of it, and because of that he wasn't prepared to risk his name over it, and refused to sell it..

So big thanks to Tony for being so honest. There is many a place out there that would of just fixed it up and let me take it without me even knowing the discovered history

Top bloke!

Lets hope he can find me another one now

gutted for ya, there are pleanty of evo x's for sale at the moment and full of nice mods too :razz:

 

[B6lee]

Fair play, prob alot of other garages out there that would have just sent the car out anyway and said nothing.

 

[Wayne'o]

i'm sure another will turn up

 

[rossy86]

gutted for you m8!! but that is a top bloke like you said he could have just sorted it and done the deal hope you find another soon bud!!

 

[Skuff]

Yeah def a top bloke.. The thing is, i wanted to get it from him as he sorted me a good finance deal, and i only wanted to pay half the money up front (what i got for selling my last car).. He said an fq 400 has just turned up, but thats out of my price range i reckon.. So gotta keep my eyes open now for another one, so if you see one (fq360, black or blue) give me a shout

I think I'll def get a blue one.. Although now a black one with lots of carbon is exciting me too lol :razz:

Sorry to hear mate. Hope you find another soon. He's a very good and honest guy. Usually they'd just sell you it to make their money on ya

He sure is mate.. Hopefully hear on the others tomorrow.. Just want to get one sorted now.. Should never have sold my last one

 

[m7gsr]

Maybe it's a good thing with this black one turning out the way it did. You can get a blue one now

 

[stevolution2010]

things always happen for a reason i believe and theres plenty more evo`s in the sea mate

 

[ElDopesta]

A lucky escape indeed!!!

It is always a buyers market around this time of the year so try not to hang about for too long buddy.
