Disgusting

I bought a 240Z sight unseen off ebay a few years back, got the car home and started cleaning it up.

I filled up 2 plastic bags full of the previous owners f&*()king hair!! I was gagging and regretting the purchase for days.

Ended up tidying the car up a bit and making a massive profit lol.

Unless of course you have permission.

In this instance I absolutely disagree with you. If your standard of cleanliness and hygiene are below that of a feral animal and you have total disregard for others by imposing your filth on them, you make yourself a target.

Opening the door you got smacked in the face with the stench and to back it up the interior was covered literally everywhere with dog fur, you could see the fleas moving around like ants, along with bowls of dry food and god knows what else hiding in there. We refused to work on it.

Anyway to cut it short, after nasty phone calls the car got taken away and brought back relatively clean. The smell was a mice nest under the dash and dead mice obviously a different stench to the dog.

Pffft is that all some dash mice and dog shit, you need to harden up! :p. Just imagine a furry critter running up your leg while driving.

Police should be going around stickering cars that are in this state as it aint just a health hazard its a hazard on the road
Or just burn them to the ground........actually yea just burn them...more fun

My car is generally spotless but I always make sure it gets a full detail close to the day of putting it in for services etc or if I have to take people somewhere. I find the dealer will treat it better when they can see how I treat it, and it makes people scared to eat in it aswell so - win, haha.

When I worked at a large dealer we had a car where you couldn't see one patch of carpet, that included in the boot. Chewing gum inside and OUT, wtf. I think I found about a years worth of maccas in there to.

Im exactly the same, I would be so embarrassed dropping my car off for anything and it was dirty.

a little bit off topic here but this reminds me of a episode of the simpsons where Marge wins a house cleaner for a day and she is busy running around cleaning the house before the cleaner arrives because Marge doesnt want her to judge here

Hey, stop stalking all my posts. :lmao:

My bad, I'm still new to the forum experience, I forgot facts and fun are frowned upon now... I'll work on being a stuck up ass hat so i fit in better :D

But I still want to see you light it up, do you remember after that cruise we had on here back in the day, me and you in the front row at the lights in pakenham? Ahhh yes the good old days when you didn't cop shit for breathing.

Sorry that's off topic and maybe mildly entertaining, ill get back in my box now.

My wife and relos that use a cleaner once a week or fortnightly ALWAYS run around cleaning up for the cleaner before she comes. "She cant clean properly if there's stuff lying around" lol

I don't see how it's breaching their privacy. The only details you know is it is a Mazda in Perth.

You don't know the model, you don't know the VIN, you don't know the rego, you don't know the colour, you don't know any details about the owner. All you can see is a filthy seat/floor/door trim and console. It is no different to any of the pictures posted in the "The things you see" thread. In fact the photos on that thread reveal FAR more info.

If you can't see the difference between taking photos in public and taking photos of items in your employers control, then I'm afraid it is a waste of time trying to explain it to you.
