Boost isnt officially australias biggest car forum, its nissansilvia. And frankly 99 percent of ppl who frequently post here are key bord warriers and all they want to do is drive a turbo car with out a turbo on there p plates. Jst bcause thing site gas lots of members doesnt mean it isnt rubbish...

i think a mod should close this until other side of the story is told. I was at this shop on sunday, everyone was proffesional and couldnt complain about anything. I know many many people who have had work done there and never had a problem. saw the skyline, looks very nice lots of nice mods etc... The car is sitting in the shop ATM so no it has not yet been auctioned as of yet.. cB admin will talk to the shop Tday regarding this as said on CB. There uis many a keyboard worry here right now

No one gives a fuck what CB is going to do, if the admin is goin to do that, good for them, has no link to whats going on here, or any reason as to why it should be closed.

Its a discussion, if you cant handle that, piss off.

Easy.

Everyone is intitled to there opinion and frankly it goes without saying people want to know who they can go to and who to stay clear of. Your not a keyboard warrior for having a say.


The other side of the story was told - a few pages back smile.gif but what was mentioned wasnt the full story IMO. Lots of shit missed.

Frankly - QLD have a nice old attitude of she'll be right ... and in the end guess what... SHE wont! wink.gif

A mate of mine has lost his car, approx 6 years of work an almost 90k ,From a certain new shop in slcks creek next to Autobarn ,not to mention names as i would like 2.
But how we ask, its called consumer beware, so really check who your dealing with an check the laws.
So how this happend? My mate wanted new custom cooler pipe, everything else was done an finished with a big $ engine set up ,fuel system custom cooler by pazmaman, the car was hot it had the works an good 4 big power which had done b4 an virtually the hole car was rebuilt .
This certain shop aproached an offerd to help my friend with the pipe work an he made the biggest mistake by sighning a job card excepting thier services and handing the keys.
All he asked 4 was the pipe work to be done nothin else ,a week later the shop phones an said they had spent the week on the car an not 2 worry we would like 2 sponcer u an use your car with our name 4 the dyno comps an meets .
So my friend asked how much $ an that he could only afford the pipe work an not expecting greater than 1k with failure to get a straight answer on price from this shop only a reply of ,dont worry we got u coverd .

To cut this short , the car was stickerd up with ther name an placed in the shops show room .
The work they carried out was new cooler pipe ,extra fuel pump ,solid engine mounts plus swappin exhaust from cat back with a second hand hks dragger an that was it nothin else.
My friend asked how much again 4 the pipe work an receives a bill 4 almost 7k an could not believe he was scammed big time. As he qestioned about the agreement an nothin he could do since it was not in writing an was told u have 7 days to pay or u will b charged a extra $25 a day in storage fee cause your car stays till bil paid ,wich comes under the law of repairers lien.
My friend could not afford to pay it an has no family 2 borrow from plus he was doin it tough an only wanted to finish the car from a promis he made to someone no matter what it took an cost him so much .
He payed 2k 4 the pipe work only as he asked 4 . They refused to give him his car back .
He could not fight it leagly with no proof of ther agreement , dept of fair traiding can only act if its a default product .. the police said its a civil matter an they cant be invlved .
So he had no where to turn 2 or what 2 do ?
The shop held onto his car an said its now 6 months we have a right to auction it to re cover our money an gave my friend 1 week. So we all helped him an chiped in 2 pay the bill ,but the shop refused our offer an changed the bill from 7k to 11k for fees and his time .
To end this the car was auctioned with a un known price , the shop owner bought it him self an sent my friend another bill on top 4 sellin fees an advertising .
My friend recieved not a cent from the sale cause it can only be auctioned from what it owes the shop , so now he has a personel loan still on the car unsecured, an a bill 4 selling costs from the shop an a loss of a car worth at least 50k not to mention more then that was spent on it .
SO thats how easey it is if you got nothin in writing ,when dealing with a crook like they r an my friend is not the first by them .


im thinking this dude thought because they said that ( in bold ) he was getting it all done for nothing. dry.gif

Me e-wang?

Oh please.... *shakes head*

If CB is owned by the shop, it makes no difference as to what goes on here, thats their problem, leave it over there. Has nothing to do with the issue that is being discussed here does it?

Hence why, we just dont give a fuck laugh.gif its not hard to work out...

Yeah but I see that the original topic starter hasn't said a word since he posted the first thread....not that I'm not believing it. Just think they would answer a question or two that people have.

Ok, I'm willing to wait to hear the rest of this story now instead of jumping the gun like I did earlier.

If my source is right, which I'm 100% sure they are because I know them very well, then the guy who is missing his car is just as dodgy as this story is.

so much more to both sides i think which we will never find out the truth!! I think under any circumstances the car should not be sold from the owner and he left with nothing..weather it is true and infact he let them do all the work and witnessed it (mayb he wasnt aware wat it was all going to cost because they made out like they were sponsoring him etc) if the car had their stickers put all over it seems really the business was more concerned about getting some advertising then the fact the customer had no $$ to start with and i think they would have known this!

yea me too, but im quick to jump in as iv had bad experiences with people who have good reputations so i guess im negative about most of them now..either way i hope Jamie gets his car back in the end and it gets sorted out because its not fair for anyone to lose that much $$$

Bandwagon or not, just enforces the fact you should always be carefull and make sure you get in writing everything your having / asked to be done.

Post #312

That's not good to hear, but the peice of paper he signed should have stated what work was to be done on the car, if any other work was done to it with out being approved by you first,Then you have every right not to pay for it (having worked in a car service centre i know what it does/should say), therefore they had no right to sticker the car and do more than what was asked to be done on it with out ringing you first, he should have sought legal advice. And perhaps ppl need to learn to read the fine print before signing anything

I'm only doing so because someone I trust has given me other information.

If it were anyone else my opinion would still stand.
