NOT HAPPY!!
I got stopped by a passer-by today, and was asking about my car...
The person said it was off a site called fiestaturbo.com, I came on here and checked, and i bloody find my car scattered about all over the place, and the person 'phil si' claiming it is his fudgekin car!!
What the f**k is going on?? I want a stop put to this right now!!
If this is NOT sorted out then I WILL be taking further action!
thank you!

Keith,
I believe I have an apology to make. Myself and Andymac used pictures of you car for a made up user we created. It was intended as a joke but went a bit too far.
I can understand you are not too happy about this. To be honest we didn't even consider the possibility that you'd find out. No excuse I know.
I'm not sure what I can say or do to resolve the situation. Please PM or email me and I'm sure we can sort this out.
Thanks,
Adrian (Webmaster)

I think that this should be out in the open to be perfecty honnest!! As it lets people see how immature someone can be!
I am still thinking of taking legal action! As this is obviously breach of privacy!
I cant think of anything you can do that would make it better, and i think a laywer would be able to give me some advice!
Thank YOU!

Indeed the s**t has hit the fan, and at great speed too!!
I dont care if it was a joke or not! I am glad that the person told me who stopped me, at least I can put an end to this charade!
I know a freind who has a good contact for legal advice, I will be speaking with her as soon as possible!!

So, now we get complaints from a guy who's car isn't even his?? WTF?

I dont know how this site works, but adrian shows up as a moderator, so thats why your message got deleted?
I found out about this when I was stopped shortly after locking my car up on the way to work.
The person in question was asking about an engine transplant..? Apparantly my car has a mondeo engine in it, funny, as i dont remember seeing one in there! For a start it wouldn't fit!
If the persons involved in the wind up had of asked (not likely really) then i may of gone along and turned a blind eye, but they didn't, this is why i am furious!

Hmm, pictures taken of a car before it was your car, hmm.
Anyhow, legal issues? do any pictures of the car contain identification marks (number plates etc.) ? If this was a legal issue would future buyers of cars purchased via a picture in the autotrader be able to take legal proceedings?
The only legal issue that I can see is that your name and hence your personal information has been publicised on this site. In line with the data-protection act you can request that this information be removed but I can't see anything else coming out of this. I may be wrong but that's my two penneths worth.

Ahh well, go for it!
Anybody willing to back him up if he goes to a solicitor? nah? didn't think so.
My advice would be to drop it as Internet "evidence" can have ways of mysteriously dissappearing. If you want your personal information removed from the forum then I'm sure that the webmaster will be more than happy to oblige. Other than that in my personal opinion I think that you should pull your head out of your arrse... whoever you are!
