Hi all,
Unfortunately today I have to voice myself, I appreciate this may not sit well with some people but the truth is the truth. Mark (mepstein) contacted me in regards to a wanted ad for a car, after some back and forth I purchased the car. Unfortunately it isn't a good story, Its rotten where he stated it was solid, parts missing where he confirmed they were complete and I even have pictures confirming parts were swapped after my purchase and before the collection. The 4 reconditioned injectors are very dangerously leaking and iv been unable to verify engine condition because the running when parked car has relays missing- it has been suggested by a member that the injectors have been swapped for the broken ones he suggested he had returned from Mr injector- who knows. I have contacted Mark to see if he will rectify some of the issues or missing parts who was very unhelpful. Mark knew my health issues and i believe took advantage of my uk location. I have all messages and picture proof, its clear im going to get no help and im stuck with what iv got but be careful when you hand over your hard earned cash because Unfortunately not everyone has good intentions. Thanks for those who have messaged me, your support is very much appreciated. For those who won't like what iv said l, I apologise but whatever side of the pond you are wrong is wrong and iv not listed anything I haven't got valid proof of. He says he gave me some parts that were missing in the photos but that doesn't give him the right to steel parts from my then car. Oh and the last thing he had to say? LOL, have a good life! Feel free to hate on me, iv told the truth- and if you have some parts for sale please keep a look out for the wanted advert I will need to post. All the best. Nathan. |

I would add, that I'm from the UK but currently residing in the US for a few years. Whilst I've only bought a couple of items from Mark he's always sent me parts as described and at what I thought was a good price. He even allowed me to jump ahead of him in the queue to buy an elusive fuch 2.0l spare wheel. Most importantly to me, whenever I've been stuck with something or needed a bit of guidance, despite never meeting him in person he has always offered me emailed guidance and advice which has been accurate and honest.
The description doesn't match up with my experience with Mark who remains at the top of the list of individuals who've gone beyond the pale to help me out! |
