    Yeah. It sucks big time.
    I didn't really know what the box thing was initially, so I wasn't too fussed.

    Now I sort of like the idea of having my own tyre inflator.

    Thanks for the tips and support.
    The battery looks okay, though. I got it checked by some trusty knights.

    Buying from a used car dealer, I've come to expect that there will be NOTHING in the car except maybe a spare, and if I'm lucky a jack kit. More often than not, there is no manual, no jack, no [insert accessories that are unique to this car], no floor mats, and NO spare keys.

    And if they "do anything for you", it's not going to be done well. If you balked at the missing tire pump, you'd probably end up with a junky $8 aftermarket one.

    Oh, and be sure to check your battery tie-down! If they touched the battery, those are notorious for being missing or loose.








    My guess is that a lot of dealers have somebody snagging stuff like this and selling it on eBay.

    And the battery tie-downs... people are lazy and just stupid, and don't realize that a loose battery can short out and cause a fire!

    Just emailed in a damage report. Should turn out okay in the end.

    Hey Eou, how's things? I hope your dealer replaced the inflator kit without charging you.
