Trade Directs advert for an R8 said the bodywork was like new , spent £500 on an inspection to find out its was a complete mess with dodgy repairs all over it . Car had also been used on a track day as a pen was found inside the glove box with the trackday company logo on it. He obviously buys shite and sells it on. Promised to refund me half the inspection but that was another lie . Typical car salesman here , full of shit . Email me and I'll show. You the email trail and inspection report. martybhoy1980@live.co.uk.

Bought a bmw and broke down the next day, contacted him for a refund for repairs but no success.

I bought a Mercedes Viano. After 40 miles a warning came on saying 374 days since last service. Also a light saying brake failure take to workshop. After contacting dealer. He told me to have the car serviced ( at my expense) followed by it had been standing for a couple of week and the light just need a reset to turn them off. The vehicle had been MOT'd a couple of days earlier. I took it to the garaage where our companies fleet vans are mot'd and the mot mechanic said if they had done the vehicle it would have failed due to wear of the front disc's and pads, I showed him the mot documentation and he said that at the very least it should have been put on as an advisory. The advisory section is clear. At my expense the car has had discs and brake pads. The vehicle was described as immaculate yet the bonnet pull is broken off and a pair of pliers lay in the n/s front door pocket so you can pull the cable to release it. This dealer has an AA dealer promise (so much for that). I paid £6700 for the vehicle. You make up your own mind !!!
