Inspection mechanic required, Perth SOR

[Robere Lurker Find all posts View Profile Close Robere]

Hi guys,

One month ago I had my beloved 2013 150 series stolen. It was found and appears to only have cosmetic damage.

Anyway as it was an insurance pay out the vehicle is now owned by the insurance company who are going auction it. I do however have the option of making an offer on the vehicle prior to auction.

I am looking for a Perth mechanic who can to do an inspection on the vehicle, mainly engine and drive train. It is in Bibra Lake so South of the river.

Many thanks.

inspect

They offered me the buyback at payout price. Round $53k, not that i am considering that. I've stated to them it would be considerably less due to the damage and unknown nature of the vehicle after being stolen. They said OK make an offer. If i can square away that there was no engine damage then i would offer round $35k and see how that goes. Its had damage to both front fenders and ARB bar. I'm not worried about that though its the engine that is an unknown.

did you keep any of the keys?
usually when they get to auction there is only 1 key, so if you handed them all back , make sure they are all available

how did they knock it off in the first place????

Cheers I will give TLC a call.
The thief's came in through the laundry dog flap. Which is 300x400. Took the keys off the kitchen bench.
