HELLO ALL,,just a wee heads-up,got my evo 4 from this joker,who advertises himself as max performance on pistonheads,i heard a rattly noise on way home,thought nothing of it,sounded like a heatshield,so i carried on,long story short,just discovered tonight that the exhaust was attatched to the manifold with 1 fitting(which was loose)also needed to do a hub,there was no locknut key,i did try contact him-no answer to calls or text.obviously i should have checked before buying,but you do put a certain amount of trust in people,he was well aware i was driving back 2 scotland and my wee lad was with me-that did piss me off. he is still advertising other evo's and my car is still in the ad,i would advise any1 to steer clear of this character,he is not honest,nor well mannered.
anyway,enuf moaning,apart from this i am delighted i bought it,its top drawer and its come to a good home:)

Not good that Jonbhoy!!!

Post up a link of the ad on Pistonheads so we can see what this clown is all about.

I will add him to The Wall of Shame.

thanks for the heads up mate

i remember going to get a car one night after work 3 hours drvie to get there car seemed fine until i was driving for a half hour lights started to dim down and she just died

altenator was gone i had an awful job trying to get home swapping batterys with my mate etc 4 am when i got home :disgusted::disgusted::disgusted:

ever since then i would never go to look at a car unless the owner is willing to meet me a good distance from his home or at his home

some people would chance their arm at anything

i think this is it m8.
just wanted to let u all know,and his office is his house in a grubby backstreet in burnley/blackburn area. i just wouldnt like it to happen to some other lad/lass,goin to spend a good few quid on thier pride and joy, there are other evo's out there-and the sellers are probably as genuine as us. all the best,i hope ive helped.

I seriously doubt it but was the car at a showroom???

Where did you meet the seller???

It would be a massive help if you could post up a full address or postcode.

Did it look like the house was being lived in or just vacant and used for the sales???

i honestly just thought it was the normal sound from the exhaust m8,and the rattle just sounded like a heatshield,something i thought could wait till i got home. i do take some blame for not checking.

I've heard of these scumbags before, traders like this should not be aloud to trade :mad:

Had dealings with him before tried selling a evo 4 GSR as a RS and also said it was 400bhp load of shite if you ask me

People like that need shooting
