I was at TAB a week ago poking around checking out some cars. Just about everything in there was damaged in some way.

They have a silver carrera 4 if anyone plans to go see it don't bother it's got paint missing on the top of the drivers rear fender a big dent as well. The interior is also in rough shape and the car is filthy.

i was there to look at a c63 amg however it was also heavily damaged runs in the pearl paint on the drivers side door and front bumper. Absolutely terrible repairs. The front bumper, front quarter, and rear bumper were 3 different colors in the sun.

 

my dad used to drink TAB.

 

TAB?

 

TAB= Toronto Auto Brokers.

I think the name kinda says it all though .. id worry about anybody with Brokers in the name.

 

Thanks for the warning, I was browsing through their inventory on Autotrader last night.

A member (https://rennlist.com/forums/997-foru...ked-a-c4s.html) seemed to have a good experience so it looks like a thorough PPI is needed every time.

 

I don't understands how this constitutes a warning. Ya, they have crappy cars, but whats wrong with that? You don't like them, don't buy them.

Heads up/warning/caution/etc. --whatever you want to call it.

 

I guess it warns people who might travel a long way expecting to see quality cars .. May save them a trip.

 

Its just a small warning, not a big one

 

I agree, that silver 997.1 C4 is in rough shape vs what is pictured in the photos!


(I wasted gas to go up there a few weekend ago)


.

 

In one of the pictures, there's a red 996 turbo behind the 997. If i recall correctly, half of the turbo was repainted

 

I guess that was the point of the thread, I also wasted time, and gas going there.

 

I went there to see a 996 before I bought the one I currently own. The vehicle was different than the ad described it. The pics were great until you saw it in person. I sat with the guy to get some history on the car, and aside from a carproof he couldnt or woudnt tell me anything about it. It was a very clear "walk away" situation for this particular vehicle but I can see how someone would believe a dealer that says they inspected the car already and it was in excellent mechanical condition.

I'm sure theres cars there that are in good condition, but buyer beware and take due diligence.

 

Thanks for the heads up and saving some of us the time & gas.

 

Have yet to talk to any used car dealer who knows any history about any of his cars for sale. Not saying there aren t any dealers who do know. I just haven t found one.
