just thought id say, when i sent my car 2 dave frost, via desmond.
i sent car there, after 2 weeks, i asked for some pics of progress, and desmond kept sayin, yea, send them later on. never recived them. kept askin how far it was and never seemend 2 get ne where.
after about 2months desmond had left working wiv dave and i started going through dave, within a week the car was completed and ready for collection.
in my eyes desmond was to blame, but he still doesnt deserve that 2 his car.
dave offered me parts of his car, he told me that desmond was short of funds, and was givin notice to pay by a certain date or dave was taking ownership of the car.
just what i heard, so it might not b true.

No, but when you order from a company then they call you a dick, well, kinda fucks you off. So stop trying to defend him, he has pissed off far more people on here than he has helped and deserves to get fucked over himself. And no i am not a nonce or a homosexual thankyou. So stop acting like a little tosser. You posted this post, i can reply how i want.
And as i say, all i can do is 
I just feel sorry for the car.

If i was having those kinda things done to my car i would be down there near enough everyday through excitement
But he obviously didnt go down for months, which doesnt send out very good vibes to the bodyshop
And shame about the car, was nice to start and imo it would have been nice once finished

des is also a m8 of mine, no1 deserves for a few past f00k ups.
went with him to move the car and all the GRP work needs re-doing and there's loads needs re-blending.
the overall metal work has a fair bit of surface rust but us salvagable.
the tit who put it there had LEFT THE KEYS IN THE IGNITION, no glass in the windows and the doors in the boot!
they even had his alarm away and with it the fob (and keys) so we had to chissel out the barrel coz he didn't have a spare set of keys.
the car is under cover in a secure site as far as i'm aware so hopefully nothing else should go missing
if ya wanna see some pics, follow the link below

i totally agree 100%
ive driven alot of nice cars- evo's, scoobys, very fast audis + loads more and this was the most fun car to drive. its a shame that it got turned into a show car imo, but its not my car so i dont get a say in it
think I'd rather drive an evo than a 2.0 corsa anyday  oyut of interest if you don't buy it how much would he be wanting? pm me
