T2 in Tas from ebay

[turbo11]

Hi all, just letting you all know that the T2 that was for sale in Tas was not what is was described on ebay. I won the bid so i jumped on a flight and went to have a look. The car was listed as in VERY GOOD CONDITION but no way he is dreaming. This is what i found  >:(

1. In the listing it said minor dent on back side of front guard. Guard very crunched so front door wont shut without jamming on the guard.

2. When asked about turbo condition was told that yes it has an issue but has a blocked line and just needs a clean out. Turbo completley rooted and even has a broken shaft.

3. Nothing was said about condition of engine when i asked so u would think that it is ok. WRONG did not have a air filter when i took the airbox apart, has nearly no comp in 3 and 4 massive amount of blow by back into the airbox to the stage that when it will run it pumps oil into the airbox. Bad noises too.

4. Overflow bottle full of rust.

5. Intercooler full of oil.

It just keeps getting better. So what did i do?

Did not hand any money over and got the hell out of there and said sorry not interested anymore and now im back in S.A.

I just thought all you guy's must know this.

Sounds like that thing should be relegated to a parts car.
