Cars & Transport

I purchased a Xenon Phantom MP150PH-L scooter from MX Motorsports back in March 08. Bad from the get go. Had to jump start it by stripping wires and then, less than 2 miles away it died. Leaking gas. Eric had to come pick it up and replace the carb. Tree batteries and two carbs later it still sits dead in the garage. I'm lucky enough to live in Palm Bch County so I could drive it back to his shop. I feel bad for all you internet orders. Always made you feel like he was doing you a favor by fixing it. Finally asked him to just refund money and say good by. Told me he couldn't do that because it was used. Had 325 miles on it, half of that was driving back from his shop after repairs. My kid was going to be using it in Miami at school and I couldn't risk him breaking down another 40 miles away. Bike was a lemon, had to have an electrical drain that he couldn't find. While it was sitting in my garage for a few weeks, not running, it started leaking gas from by the filter.

Bottom line is, I tried to sue him in small claims court. Had 2 receipts for the bike, one from MX Motorsports in Palm Bch and one from BH Motosports in Los Angeles, both made out to my son for the same bike. Title was from BH Motorsports. Also, couldn't get it titled in Fla. Because the title wasn't transferred properly. Here's where it gets interesting. I served both MX and BH with orders to appear. BH Motorsports in LA got served on 6/30/08, but MX Motorsports, with Eric Marabini as RA/VP for the corp. Gave an invalid address in his corporate filings so the summons came back unexecuted. Before I could serve the Pres., Jeff Vandenberg, BH Motorsports must have notified them about the lawsuit. MX Motorsports Corp. Was dissolved on 7/16/08. Their website says they are now MX Motortoys Inc. (new corp. Filed 7/11/08), new warehouse location. Eric or Jeff are not listed on that corporation. Some guy named Nolan Knight as Pres/RA.

I read in another complaint that they are supposed to be partners. When trying to serve him at his listed address, was told he's no longer there. Another bad address. Jeff Vandenberg's (pres. Of MX) house is vacant. His new company is JV Motogroup Inc. I suggest avoiding that one, too. They seemed to have acted fast, notified on 6/30, opened new corp. On 7/11, dissolved old corp. On 7/16, to avoid giving me back $1000.00 for a defective scooter.

In less than 5 months their address has changed 3 times;
1) 1000 Stinson Way #115,2) 342 Pike Rd #27,3) 1335 Okeechobee Rd #500. They're probably hiding from some of you, too.

I went to the new warehouse address and low and behold, there was Eric sitting at the desk. No sign on the new place. Not easy to find. I finally found him and had him served. We'll see who shows up and what happens on the October 30th, court date.

I don't recommend doing business with any company that any of these people are associated with.
