May save someone some cash if you fancy a Bullitt Mustang

Just in case get a Carfax on this car or check out the viper forum on www.pistonheads.com and please spread the word get a CARFAX.

Seems that a US write off can come here and the SVA centres can not fail it as long as the repair is average.

We found a Viper with 10 degress negative camber one side and none the other.

Carfax described it as a total loss

So are you saying the Mustang is moody? I can't really make much sense of your post

Not sure of the rules on this forum re name and shame as this has caused a lot of trouble on other forums but there are at present several 'Moody' American cars in the UK, they are all US write-offs so hence the Carfax (US HPI CHECK) even if its trade,

BUy a scrapped car in the US which has been repaired then when shipped here it only has an SVA, not as strict as an MOT (but that is changing).

Car gets a clean bill of health, you part with you cash, when you try to sell it if someone does a Carfax comes up as a write off.

This dealer openly brags about it on a US forum.

Just if you want a late yank get a CARFAX.

That Viper offered by the dealer was a shed....so much so you could easily see it in the pictures.
