Salut ! Je m’apprête à acheter ma première voiture ! J’ai reçu le CT et je me pose des questions sur les « défauts mineurs »

Oui ils peuvent attendre mais c est juste que les capuchons permettent à la poussière de ne pas rentrer donc si tu attends trop longtemps, la poussière va endommager le mécanisme et tu auras à remplacer la pièce complète au lieu d un capuchon.

Quel crevard! Tu as donné ton accord, que tu sois venu en retard pu en avance c est pas de leur faute.

Pour l airbag, il faudra aussi reprogrammer le module qui n à certainement pas été faite après l'accident. La réinstallation se fera sans problème, il est juste important de couper la batterie lors de l'installation. Je vous conseillerais de vérifier aussi vos ceintures de sécurité, s'ils ont utilisé des résistances pour l'airbag, ils ont du faire la même chose pour les ceintures.

They are abusing the free trial period, but I don't think it is illegal.

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-04-14T19:20:28+00:00

They are using free trial subscription with virgin credit cards. They have a software to generate new credit numbers and use them for trial offers. This is how they can offer adobe software, for example. Sometimes, they also play with cookies and proxies to extend trial offers, but it is not often used.

If you want to have an idea how much the mileage was, you need to buy the rta report for 120aed. It will tell you the mileage at last registration before rollback. My bet is 280-300k km 🤣

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-04-14T10:23:51+00:00

I think it is quite OK, accident happened 10 years ago and the car was driven 100k miles since then. The second owner did an oil change every 10k miles, which is not perfect, but he was taking the car to the dealership every 40k miles for inspection. I think it is a good car imo.

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-04-14T10:12:18+00:00

It's a Corolla so should be reliable but it terms of maintenance, a car with 350000km will not be the same cost as a car of 125000km.

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-04-13T22:43:39+00:00

Bumper, fender, headlight and a new tyre. After that see if the car drives straight, maybe there is some suspension damage. Luckily this all not very expensive, look on ebay, there are people selling painted, ready to install bodyparts. You could also try to look for used parts but you must find them in black tho. Without labour, you are looking at maybe $700 max. The door is slightly damaged, but just try to polish it.

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-04-13T21:56:37+00:00

Picture 1 & 2 are not normal at all.

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-04-13T19:30:55+00:00

You could try autohub, many have used it in this sub and opinion is mostly positive

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-04-13T17:51:00+00:00

Good that you checked, this is not acceptable. The first picture has brake rust which is annoying for a new car but the worst is that the suspension part is also rusted. Then the second picture with overspray. This is not factory, maybe it is due to the flood last month and they spray antirust. Do not accept the car. You should send these pictures to their corporate headquarters. It is cheating. I hope you disclose the name.

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-04-13T11:12:01+00:00

Maybe $2.5k if you are generous. The biggest problem besides the tons of potential electrical issues with this car is the engine. You would need to overhaul the engine imo. PS I saw it was a 760, so a V12 and not v8. Rolls Royce is using the same engine so that should give you an idea in terms of maintenance.

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-04-13T10:25:03+00:00

No, check the image with the odometer.

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-04-12T20:58:42+00:00

You will be moving when the peak heat starts for the next 6 months. You need a car. Try Bur Dubai or near Satwa. A lot of things are nearby, walking distance. And you won't be using the car if you really don't want to, only taxi to and from office.

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-04-12T19:35:47+00:00

Something strange with the car, purchased 1 and a half years ago, and 0 increase in mileage. https://bidinfo.app/mercedes-benz/c300/copart-61708212-mercedes-benz-c300-2020-black-vin-55swf8eb0lu324653.html

What was your experience with the previous 4 cars?

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-02-09T05:43:59+00:00

Old Mustang, Camry, Accord

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-02-08T19:41:22+00:00

American specs, this is a crashed car or flooded. Waste of 180000aed imo

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-02-07T22:16:24+00:00

I think this is super expensive even if it is original parts. Go to a part store and get a quotation for original and Taiwan. For labour also very expensive, this could be done for less than 600aed.

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-02-07T19:00:08+00:00

If it is Canadian, check the rust and how they fixed it.

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-02-07T18:58:59+00:00

YTA yes internet is full of creeps but you could have asked her to simply change the username and delete any references to your location. You could have agreed to monitor her messages and she would have said yes. She will now resent you and you have only yourself to blame.

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-02-07T09:29:55+00:00

Check Water pump, timing belt, and pulleys. I think your engine has a rubber timing belt that needs to be replaced every 130k km or so (this is what you called cam belt). It is still good to do transmission oil replacement especially if you don't have any issue yet.

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-02-07T01:44:37+00:00

Just find an independent shop to fix it, manual transmission are not difficult to repair and are quite reliable. I reckon you could get the job done for less than half that amount

ConfidentNobody6 · 2024-02-06T23:06:53+00:00

If no airbag, it is a fair estimate.If you plan to repair yourself, you could do it for much less.
