Re: FY52 TFK - Please Read
I've already had Trading Standards involved. There advice was to take the trader to Court, but that could take a minimum of 2-3 months and I had to keep the car which is no good to me as it's so unreliable and awful to drive. I've lost enough time off from work and restless nights sleep due to this ...

Re: CAN I REJECT MY DREAM CAR which is turning into a Nightm
Not sure which garage in Nuneaton as this is where the previous owner part exchanged it. It's been nothing but a nightmare on wheels!

Re: CAN I REJECT MY DREAM CAR which is turning into a Nightm
Car taken back today to garage. Spoke to the manager, told him all the problems and handed him copies of my original letter, invoices for work already carried out and a copy of the email letter from CAB. Asked me why I didn't bring the car back to him earlier, told him he had originally told me to c...

Re: CAN I REJECT MY DREAM CAR which is turning into a Nightm
Yes, the garages did say they could hear the noises (banging/clunking) but none of them could isolate what the problem may be. As I've said, they checked the suspension and gearbox and I'm being told it looks ok. I'm just not prepared to spend anymore money on this car now so at the moment I'm havin...

Re: CAN I REJECT MY DREAM CAR which is turning into a Nightm
Latest Update... The car has been checked by 2 independent garages (diagnostics checked again as well) and I'm being told that there are no problems with the gearbox nor the suspension. Garage has told me that I should expect some movement with the gearbox and through the gears and if the car had go...

Re: CAN I REJECT MY DREAM CAR which is turning into a Nightm
Hi Sue, Thanks for that info. I have now contacted CAB this morning and have been advised to write a letter to the garage where I bought the car from detailing all the faults which I have already paid for and all the oingoing faults. They also advised me on certain phrases to use within the letter u...

Re: CAN I REJECT MY DREAM CAR which is turning into a Nightm
Thanks guys. It's been in at the garage again today for the latest clunking noise problems and goes to a different garage on monday for a second opinion. First garage seem to think it's an internal gearbox problem, so I'll wait and see what happens on Monday and let you all know the outcome. I bet e...

Re: CAN I REJECT MY DREAM CAR which is turning into a Nightm
Ok, I've just been on a few sites to value my car and I'm getting a range of from between £1200 - £1600. I paid £2400 but p/x my other car in with it, so I paid £1900. Add the £1000+ I've already spent on all the problems and it's starting to become expensive! Any thoughts???

From memory the car now has approx 66,400+ miles on the clock. It has a full service history and I know the last previous owner was also a lady (I will have check paperwork for exact number of owners prior). With regards to all the problems, I have spoken to the warranty company who have now advised...

Re: CAN I REJECT MY DREAM CAR which is turning into a Nightm
Thanks Shadow, will do. I'm hoping to get the car to the garage tomorrow but to add to my woes, this evening the car wouldn't start, just made an awful racket and shook, then I got 'engine immobiliser fault' flash up on the display. I sat there for a few moments, then tried again and it started with...

Re: CAN I REJECT MY DREAM CAR which is turning into a Nightm
I've now contacted the warranty company who have tentatively agreed for me to try and have the clunking noise identified (corners, gear change etc??). I have to make arrangements for a garage to have a look and diagnose what the fault(s) may be then ring the warranty company back and let them know. ...

CAN I REJECT MY DREAM CAR which is turning into a Nightmare!
Hi everyone, I have a Pug 2Ltr SE (52 plate) which I have only had for just over 3 months now and I have had nothing but problems with it. I bought this second hand from a garage (not a Pug retailer) who gave me a 3 month warranty cover with a company called VGS Warranty Management Services Ltd. As ...
