exvaux Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 Had my car 2 weeks now,bought from a dealer for "peace of mind" was changin side repeaters today,somethin didnt feel right,panel gap,paint feel etc,took it to my mate who owns a body shop,cars been smashed and repaired,not very well,rust bubbles startin to come through on rear quarter ,new front wing etc,when he pointed things out i could could see it,im gutted,wasnt on register and dealer said nothin,its that bad im just thinkin of gettin rid of it just feel sick now told my mate to keep it just no.Thats what happens when u trust a dealer eh
dipsy Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 Take it back to the dealer and can i ask what age is the car .Does it have a warranty
thefastone Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 Well legally you have 3 months warranty on any veichle that you buy from a dealer, they are OBLIGED to repair any problems or give you your money back.... I say depending on the severity of the damage, I'd get my money back and get a better car... for surely thats something that the dealer should have checked for...
z1000 Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 Go to trading standards as surely the dealer should have known and told you.
dipsy Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 What car do you have in previous posts of yours you mention a 51plate wrx then 99sti type r ?? Take it back to were you got it and ask for a refund or the garage to sort it .A good body shop will sort it and it will look like new
G.T. Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 i wouldnt be telling what dealer it was if i was you mate, but i would go back and tell them you are unsatisfied with the car im sure it will get sorted mate
exvaux Posted August 6, 2006 Author Posted August 6, 2006 its the type r,the bugeye was ok but was expectin it to be quicker,when the sti came up for sale i decided to go for it.The damage is hard to notice unless your lookin for it,my mates gonna go over it see what it needs to be done properly,goin back to the dealer cos im definately not happy.Have a years warranty from them so hopefully that has some cover but if its been done before they got it doubt it,found the last 2 owners were from rothsey and dumfries,has an SIDC sticker on the front window too,maybe someone here knows the car or the history?Cool grey sti 5 type r S***SGA is the reg.
