I bought the car brand new a few years ago. No clues where the pics came from.

What he said, let us know if you get a reply

The Monty · 31-03-2006, 01:24 PM

If someone actually bid for it, would he have to supply a Mustang GT? Wonder if he'll take a trade in lol.

TotalDriver · 31-03-2006, 02:12 PM

That's funny.

The ad states it's a 5 speed manual yet the pics clearly show it's an auto.

What a nut, have you contacted Carpoint yet to have it removed from their site?

Cheers,

I've contacted the police again, we have to leave it on carpoint for a while and wait until they reply.

Who knows where the photos came from. It doesnt look like its at a car show.

Looks like at some factory or something.

ToxikXR · 31-03-2006, 02:31 PM

Thats crazy.. Surely someone would be able to track where the person is and get the police involved..

02 in victoria.. they must be pretty smart

AnthonyQLD · 31-03-2006, 02:34 PM

enquiry sent.

WILDTRAKPX2 · 31-03-2006, 02:47 PM

Just another reason to publish photos of your cars with number plates blocked out.

BPXR6T · 31-03-2006, 04:59 PM

There was a thread on here about bad neigbours. They linked out to another thread on another forum which was about how to get your neighbours back. One prank was to advertise their car really really cheap in every possibly publication being sure to use there phone number. i.e. the p#ss the neighbour off with the flood of phone calls. But they didn't use your number hey.

Maybe they used your car because it looks good and the dude with the number mentioned on the add has disconnected there phone because of the thousands of phone calls. But maybe I'm just delusional...

BENT_8 · 31-03-2006, 05:24 PM

Are the kilometers accurate?

Hi 4barrel

I saw that thread too a while ago. I've contacted Telstra and they said that number has not been in service for at least a month.

Now here is the scary bit.

I've been trying to contact Carpoint on their 1300 number and its constantly engaged. I've sent them an e-mail with the 'contact me urgently' and no reply as yet.

I'd really like a 'please explain' from Car point. I guess I'll have to wait and see.

My concern now is I hope no one is going to get burnt by this.

Yeah, and 2004 most powerful ba gt.

The wording came from a press release on the web site www.gtmovie.com I think.

Redrum · 31-03-2006, 05:57 PM

The pics look to be taken in some sort of workshop or similiar. Keys are in ignition. Perhaps some work done of car by somebody and they have grabbed camera and gone to town!!

Cam you can make a movie about this!!!! :hihi:
