I bought a Hyundai i20 in York in September 2015 for £4,700 + recommended £200 for two year warranty. I was told that the car was in good condition apart from the air conditioning which was not working but just need to be recharged come the spring. I was told this would cost around £40. It turned out that the reason it did not work was because of a leak in the condenser, leaving me with a bill for over £200. Needless to say, this was ot covered by the recommended warranty. Not only that, but the garage that replaced the condenser told me that it was actually bad for the engine to drive without this functioning properly. Anyway, my point is that Affordable Cars must have known the reason why the air conditioning was not working properly. They could probably have got it repaired themselves chaper that I could. The whole thing just seems like a really cheapskate way to go about their business. Apart from the airconditioning, the only problem I had was with the brakes, which needed a complete overhall when I brought the car for its MOT, a year, and 6,000 miles after purchase.
