Bought a Vectra from Evans Halshaw in Rotherham. On the test drive the tracking was out but as part of the deal this was to be done. Picked it up noticed on the way home tracking wasn't done, had a misfire, knock at the front and rear brakes in poor condition. Phoned to complain, got it booked into my local Evans Halshaw. They told me it needs new rear brakes, glow plugs, a coil spring and maybe injectors. I phoned Rotherham to inform them. They wanted the car back to fix it them self. It's been there since Wednesday and still isn't finished. They can't find a fault with the misfire. They have supplied a courtesy vehicle. I purchased a 12 month warranty with the car.
The rear brakes and broken spring are MOT Fails yet it was MOT'd 2 weeks prior to me purchasing it.
I think my options are......
Once fixed, collect the car. Hope it is all ok. Try and blag a free MOT and Service.
Refuse to take delivery of the car and demand my money back.
Seek legal advise and try get some compensation out of them.
