    I don't think this idiot likes his clutch very much. Look at the smoke bellowing out from the transmission on the first launch.
    Absolutely terrible!

    Yeh so about this bs ive been going through,

    About 2 months ago i saw a black mk4 r32 on pickles website LISTED AS: "ENGINE DAMAGE" ( this is true, the engine is gone), and i said ill definately go have a look, so 2 days later i go check if its still online so i can get the lot number and its gone... (i assume someone purchased it somehow)

    Anyway i never forgot about that car and then all of a sudden, its back on pickles, however this time its LISTED AS: "WATER DAMAGE", this time I went down with my father saw that it was the same car, same VIN# and yeh we bid to 5k or some **** and someone ended up getting it for 5750..

    Unfortunately this guy who we tried to tell that the car had engine problems didnt believe us and then!! 2 bloody days pass and im on Manheim and i see a black mk4 r32 (same VN same car), only this time!!!! its LISTED AS "STOLLEN AND RECOVERED" not only that the dodgy pricks put flour around the door handles and car to make it look like Police checked it for prints and also put the engine plastics back in place as they had been taken off to check the spark plugs or something..

    I called and called and all i really got was a bunch of dead ends and bs saying theyre policy doesnt require them to "specify whats wrong with the car"

    i didnt call the Police cause i dont think the matter is large enough but yeh, just wanted to share that and tell everyone to BEWARE!
