monkfish Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Hmmm.......... "this car has had very light vandal damage and now it is in prestige condition" Why would a dealer even mention that if it has ben "very light" damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holtehero Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 i guess some of you guys must have access to HPI at work, otherwise its an expensive hobby checking something like this I know this is a bit off topic, but which service is best to use as i want to run an HPI on a car i'm going to look at this week (forever cautious), its got a private plate but i guess that won't affect the HPI will it? Back on topic, how many people would really expect to get a 911 for that money without something being wrong with it, as soon as you look at it the alarm bells start ringing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back on topic, how many people would really expect to get a 911 for that money without something being wrong with it, as soon as you look at it the alarm bells start ringing use the original HPI check , there are others but the trade seem to rely on the HPI company as the class leader (I know I do ) private plate changes will be listed on HPI check along side any bad history gathered on the appropriate plate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know when you sell your house it's no longer buyer beware - if you know something, but don't get asked about it at the time, you can still be held to account if it can be shown later you knew (or that you reasonably should have known). Think that's right Digsy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
