Seeking the person that paid a deposit to Steve @ Rising Sun for my Leone Turbo Wagon

Howdy all,

Approx 3 weeks ago, someone left a deposit with Steve @ Rising Sun Car Service in Adelaide for a Leone Turbo Wagon I was selling.

The buyer didn't leave any contact details and has not returned to pay for and collect the car.

Unfortunately if said person doesn't contact myself or Steve by the end of next Tuesday (June 12th) the car will be put back onto the market.

If this was you, can you please contact me ASAP.

Cheers with Beers

Is that the grey(?) lifted L wagon with a head gasket issue? No I'm not the guy, sorry

Strange how someone would leave a deposit and no contact details whatsoever or return to take the car...I really wonder about some people

Lol I'd probably be interested in the rear brakes for my brumby

Unfortunately I'm mechanically retarded and also have no time either so she will be sold as a complete car.

There's plenty of good bits for someone to make some coin

guy i sold a gearbox to recently might still be interested in this? (he had asked for engine numbers and shit to make sure car was legit and bid then car had deposit put down...) i'm sure you remember his details.

Please ask them if they are only using for parts, if so let them know I'm interested in a few things... Thanks

Not sure if the buyer is a forum member or what their plans are as they have been dealing with Steve from Rising Sun and not me

I bet it was an impulse buy too, put down the deposit, then went underground for a few weeks to russle up the finances

Good to hear!

I hope they keep it in one piece! I know people are after the hard to find parts but I feel that these days we need to try and keep vehicles like this one together and find the good parts in the wrecking yards before they end up in china.

Cheers

I have seen this car.

Reminds me of my last L - as per my avatar - minus of course the stobie pole

I paced around and around it. Looked at it longingly. Even had a meal at HJs debating if I should put an offer in - you know, as The Boss said, relive the Glory Days

All the best to the next owner - very good base to build something special

they sound like a sh**ty buyer lol.
who puts a deposit down and leaves no contact details?

vortexxt · Post by **vortexxt** » Thu Jun 21, 2012 4:23 pm

Me again..... Well it's been a bit of a rollercoaster ride selling this car and it's now back on the market as the intended buyer pulled out.

I've posted an advert featuring some pictures in the classified section

That's my old wagon. Does it still have all the good gear on it? (I notice from the pics in the For Sale thread the custom front and rear bars are gone - rear with spare wheel and jerry can holders):
It had dual battery set up, JDM AWD 'box, extra low ratio kit in the t'case, underbody bash plates, rear LSD and disc brakes, turbo timer, BOV, catch can, pod filter, boost gauge, CD stereo etc, etc
For parts alone this car is worth at least what is being asked.
