Buyer Beware - Sydney Used EP3 Type R

**dodgyimports** · 05-06-2013 08:33 PM

Just thought I'd post this as a warning to anyone looking at buying a EP3 type R in Sydney at the moment:

http://www.edwardlees.com.au/stock/2...ype-r-3481.htm

- note VIN number. Even once complied you should expect to see the the original Japanese chassis number as part of the VIN.

http://ajeos.ru/aj_3-sCFn7CY3ahLU45.htm

- chassis no. is recorded on the auction sheet as are the km's

"fresh from japan" - and seemingly delivered by the tardis...

on the plus side - looks like some nice detailing work has been done on this car since it arrived.

note: per standard japanese auction systems the ajeos link above will be archived at some point during July.

OP, from memory the seller you're talking about was going to proceed with legal action against both JDMST and this forum iirc...

Might be wise to censor the name and people can PM you regarding the issue...

What can they actually do?

That auction form is publicly listed and he didnt word anything against them,only pointing out discrepancy so people can consider it..?

We need Fredoops to chime in
