Even more classic quotes in the eBay listing.
I think point here is bad advertisement of details on car sales is not a good thing.
Problem is this type of scenario is what made the GTiR a joke, R's are great just to many bad owners ...

Just had a look at the link, so Bobs naming you as the bloke who lied about it having a forged engine, and is now pissed off because you've started a thread on here defending yourself... Weird ?? This the car that got delivered with loads of bits taken off after you bought it ?

shoody workmanship and tuners that didn't have a clue is what has made the car a joke to some, funny thing is they are popular in the rest of Europe and they command far higher prices.

They seem to be recovering over here a bit now as well, Most people have now realised just what a great car they're if you don't let some back street spanner monkey anywhere near them, Or for that matter most of the well known tuners who either don't care or haven't got the skill to modify them properly.

Not just tuners, the home bodged & eBay sheds that go through usual sale channels over & over with less than truthful details is what caused most of the damage to the R's reputation in the UK. Tuners are much the same the world over.
They are great reliable performance cars just a shame they didn't get better status & price for the UK.

So as I said " shoddy workmanship AND tuners".

Point in case: When we went to the Isle of Man this year I got pulled aside leaving the island... not as a boy racer, but as the owner of a classic car like the Jenson Interceptor who was also pulled aside.
It's less and less "dat looks wikid, is it well fast" and more "is that a genuine GTiR? You don't see many of those around."

"You don't see many of those around."
Thats exactly what people have been saying to me recently. Been doing autosolos in mine through the summer (some success, not much) and a lot of people have shown interest in the car, said how "Back in the day, I almost bought one" enquired about what i'd done to it (not much pretty standard still) and the kind of power you can get from them quite easily, and how you don't see so many in good running order these days.
Exactly the same conversation at every garage I've had quotes from for getting the rust sorted too...

Got to say, just seen that 'Gaz gtirs' post on the other forum, what a load of retarded shit... Apparently this has started by the OC as a whole, even though it started on the other forum when their forum owner blamed the op of this thread for lying about a forged engine.. This thread was then started so he can obviously defend his name, included in the first post is a link to him being accused on the other forum....... It's there right infront of you, in writing, with the date & time next to it.. So to say it started over here, by the oc as a club, is retarded, anyone who must think that is a bit backwards, can't read, or just likes making shit up ? Secondly, your comments of 'they all know the truth' and 'they're all liers and theives' is quite a generalisation, are you saying thst everybody who's posted on this thread is a lier & theif, or knows wat's happened, you're obviously making out you know what's happened, so state some facts.. all that cryptic bullshit is why stuff always erupts, people talking shit on the sly behind people's backs.. if you've got something to say, say it. My 2p, i heard that car turned up at the op's with bits taken off and swapped over, never read anything about it on the net so the op kept his mouth shut, then he's being called a lier & theif over that same car, by the person ge bought it off........ see the irony, if what i said is correct, then from my point of view that's an absolute piss take and plain shit stirring..... That's all i know, the op's not my friend, i've met him twice, i've met Bob far more times than that.... So lets here what you know, who are all these liers and theives you speak of, sounds like you know exactly what's going on ?

And these me thinking people have to work for a living , looking at it all seems like some have the time to sit around on forums! Worrying about who said what and he said this and she said that...tbh it always seems to be the same ol shit and the same ol people trying to shout anyone else down who says something that they perceive as a possible remark...you know what I bet 99% could not give a flying fuck and they are probley like me fed up of the innuendos and bullshit from silly little boys.

Bob, That's a fair enough point, i'm guilty of opening my gob without knowing the full details, but i only say it how I see it, this was brought up on your forum and the op is banned so can't say anything in his defence, if it wasn't being accused/insinuated that it was his doing, then i assume this wouldn't be here ? The thing is, it's a forum, so people comment on what they see, i've not accused you of doing anything, i've written what i've heard, yet you've people like Gaz saying we (over here) all know the truth, a thiefs a thief blah blah.... apparently knows what's gone on yet says nothing but cryptic little lines..... So when he says stuff like that, to me it sounds like i'm in on some big conspiracy, which he knows about, but i don't ?? So, i've said exactly what i've heard and asked him to do the same, but instead get another cryptic reply 'look closer to home' , what does that even mean, it's like telling everyone you know what's happened and not telling anyone anything, that's shit stirring, just say what you know then other people don't feel like they're being made a part of it, or if you're not willing to say whst you know, don't post ? Anyways, i have no personal problem with you, i'm not trying to wreck your company or whatever, just didn't like what i read and thought it was a bit one sided, i'll say it as i see it from my perspective, not always a good thing but that's me, after reading your side it looks 6 of 1 & half a dozen of the other, there's obviously more to it than i've heard, so in hindsight maybe i should have kept shut, but then that still stems back to the old adage, say what you know or say nothing at all.

What i hate is all the bullshit, making out you know something and then keeping it quiet, i'm glad i don't hear 99% of it tbh, that goes from rumours about people, right across to tuning tips.. I've never known such a clique, backstabbing group of like minded people, it's all 'i know something you don't' shite, i thought carp fishing forums were bad for it....... P.s, your first paragraph has nailed me btw, op on the 22nd and not been able to work since, not much else to do but forum surf the boredom away, i've definitely been more vocal then usual.... that aside, as above, drip fed info makes me want to know more, it's just human nature, intrigue .....

A ahhh so it's your turn to be sick note now!, I am still not sorted from last year and have some more hospital work coming up soon, russ I am not hiding fuck all add me on face book as well if you like and you will see more of the bullshit that a few and it is a few are coming out with, tbh I couldn't give a shit and they can carry on, I am starting to wonder if the person or persons causing it all have some kind of gay obsession, one person sticking it in seemed to have a lot of very young looking girls on his friends list in foreign countries so I notified "Stinson hunter"...

Gaz, it's your post saying 'they know the truth' 'oc lot blah blah ' that got my back up, it's you that generalised everyone together, you can twist it to say i've got a guilty conscience or whatever, those games don't bother me, but if you're going to say what you're saying be specific about who, or say nothing.... like even now, you've still said nothing but still want to play verbal ping pong ? For the record, i agree that Bob should be allowed to say his bit on here, same way as i think the op should be allowed to on there, how is it remotely fair if otherwise ?? Anyways, we're going around in circles now Gaz, i'm out, you can think what you like, i'll leave this 30 minutes for you to read it, then i'll delete my posts in this thread, i've put my point across, i obviously don't know the full story, only Bob & Benji do so it may aswell go....

Hate hospital, hope you get on the mend soon and it's nothing serious, wasn't being specific about anyone tbh mate, was the dreaded generalisation, even though i made a point to not alienate one side (sorry Gaz..lol), Gladly i'm not on facebook or anything, i've got an unhealthy hatred for it...... Stinson hunter lol, That pedo hunter programme was nuts, fair play to him, i couldn't do it, wouldn't be able to control myself, you could see the police thought he was doing good, even if they couldn't actually say it.

I think you've both hit the nail on the head. - Any time we start giving our opinions on the forums without knowing the full story somebody gets upset.

Someone's upset and they act like a jerk; point fingers and call names... the whole thing escalates.

Before you know it, there's some kind of turf war going on. :shock:
