The "I Hate My P.O. Thread"
Welcome To the Officially Unofficial Thread where you can feel free to hate on the PO of your car, comment on other's previous owners, and relieve some stress...
i guess i'll start. I hate the fact that my P.O bought a FORD FREAKING TAUROS, and decided to drive that, instead of the 944 i purchased, thanks for letting it sit in your driveway for 2 years, and having no clue about the general maintenance

there was already a long *** thread on this I think.
My previous owner was pretty decent in maintenance and had receipts. Don't think he was quite honest on it being accident free though lol.
other than that I didn't find a half *** ghetto repairs or anything like that.

My PO's were mostly good, lots of receipts and such.
I hate the one who couldnt drive a manual properly and nuked the crankshaft from holding the pedal down too long.

My owner was also kind of a dick in some ways when he wouldn't give me his number out of being "harrassed" when I was trying to find out how old the timing belt job was.

My PO was an idiot. I won't say anything more. I believe that I saved my car from a horrible horrible death.
Lets just say that he "thought it was supposed to vibrate REALLY bad at 70mph" so he didn't fix it (turned out both rears were bent).

My PO was the "Gadget King". I have removed more "crap" from this car:
1. Home built foot well lighting with about 12' extra wiring
2. LED "eBay" gauge covers attached with super glue (yes, super glue....dumb ***
) and another 15' of wiring
3. "Custom" wired Cd player... (dood liked his wires)
4. "JC Whitney Special" horn...
5. Wiring...wiring, wiring....for his custom stereo...
And...the best of all...
6. He left the Sachs/Boge front sport shocks, but replaced the rears with Gabriel Air Shocks. Yes...the very same air shocks that you can "pump" up with an air compressor. Rode like a damn Cadillac on the way home. I asked why. his response - He thought the rear end rode to low.
