Re: Dodgy?

when i rang them up and spoke to there main office to be put through to the person unless he was there everyone couldnt help me and they were very hush hush and tried to get me off the phone quickly.

i dunno if it is dodgy, might just be me being to over cautious.

 

[twincamms]

Nah...............

they all seemed to know the score when I collected my wheels, they just didn't feel like dealing with an Ebay peasant I think!

 

[James M]

Not surprised really, nothing surprises me with dealers anymore.

The thing with the guy not understanding why you didn't want to pay delivery rings familiar bells, some of them just seem to lack basic common sense. That would have infuriated me too

Good deal you got overall though eh?

I have to say though, this smacks of this guy and few colleagues making a few quid on the side, if it is, maybe your complaint to Fiat will see his disappearance from eBay, then we'll know for sure

 

[James M]

LOL at the feedback you gave him

He still gave you positive though, which is good of him, I hate the tit for tat attitude of some eBayers, if you've been a good buyer, why should you get a neg just for speaking the truth?

Cos unfortunately a lot of people these days think if you don't agree with them in the slightest they owe you a punch in the chops. The asshole to polite ratio of the general public is sadly slipping.

Re: What a rant!

Arse, that lot doesn't even make sense to me and I'm like yourself, quite a complicated little guy!

Wha' ya mean?

Was my grammar just ****e or something else?

 

[twincamms]

Err...................

I don't think it was your grammar!

Were you p i s s e d when you posted it?

 

[arseofbox]

Re: Err...................

I was very p i s s e d o f f with PMG Fiat in Urmston, as for drunk, possibly, but doubt it!!

 

[twincamms]

Now..................

back to the original topic.......................

 

[Carlo]

TC,

Thats a good deal mate. Reason there so cheap is because fiat have masses amounts of stock of that wheel and that specific tyre make, model & size. It was part of a deal they made with Pirelli.

I got those wheels and tyres when they first had the promotion (advertised in Auto Italia) for £325!! I sold the tyres, because they were the wrong size for my car for £280 and brought the correct size.

Excellent value for money.

 

[twincamms]

That's interesting Carlo, thanks for the info!

 

[wolfracepunto]

They look huge on the Punto.......why dont my 17's look that big

 

[twincamms]

Carlos'................

car looks lower than yours!

 

[Carlo]

Yeah, my cars lowered 35mm at the front and 15mm at the rear (I decided on these springs as it evens out the stance of the car).

The rims look big because they have large cut outs and the spokes go almost right to the edge. I think they compliment the puntos (mk2) lines perfectly.
