Haha

Bing but you know I wouldn't thrash it like that Sepang. Why burn the tyres and clutch like that?

I know mate :thumbsup:

I'm not saying it's been ragged all the time at all, but buyer beware. I think you'd want more than a standard RAC check given the 'evidence' to be found online, that's all I'm saying.
 
I'm going to back off.... That video has put me off. I wouldn't do that to any car. He's not taking any offers at all
 
I offered £14,500. It's ok, he seems a nice bloke, and it's a great car but just a little worrying seeing that tail spin too....I don't think any of us would do that to our cars

Don't blame you, the video also put me off as well :(
 
Hope the plod get see a few of those videos... they might have something to say to him....
 
i've yet to watch the video but i'm in 2 minds, what harm can be done, obviously the tyres are going to suffer, sure supsension and thing should be ok from occasional hamering???????
 
A cheeky roundabout drift or snakey getaway wouldn't deter me from pursuing a car but the rest of the antics & drift day pics create a profile of a owner that i wouldnt want to receive a car from :thumbsdown:
The web can be a noose around the neck at times :wink:

I've just had my new purchase checked out in Manchester and all is fine, I wouldn't fancy that one after seeing it's been tracked on the track and all over the public roads too. Shame though as those bronze ones are a pretty rare and nice colour.

You could find it going to a garage and then sold on to an unsuspecting buyer. Poor M
 
Well that's a bit silly leaving that insta account open when selling the car - at least a prospective owner can see how its been driven. I don't really see a problem with an M driven like that (although the boys in blue may have something to say about the public drifting - the boy can drive though) its a performance car after all, bit of wear on the clutch (probably no more than coasting around town and foot constantly resting on the pedal) oh and new tyres. 8)

x2

It's the "known unknowns" that you have to worry about.

We know he drifts around roundabouts, partakes in drift track days etc, but what don't we know.

When you're buying any car from a private seller you have to build up an assumption as to how you think the car has been treated.
