OHHHHHHHH the post you refer to has been (i assume) removed.. I should have liked to have seen it. Thanks again Freedom Trail and everyone. Maybe I should send them an invoice for the scratch their "operative" put on my wing when sticking the bloody ticket on my window!

Thanks freedom trail

Thanks Both of you

So I have received a PCN from a private parking company. Do I ignore or start writing letters from templates page? Thanks in advance

Ya know what, I think I am going to suck it in and go to a trusted garage to get the work done, at least I can be assured the same problem (hopefully!) will not come back! It sucks sometimes being self employed and being totally reliant on my car. Thanks for all the help and support.. Awesome site, awesome people... "I vill be back"

I cant request a refund as he is willing to repair and when I called trading standards it was their phone system that put me through to consumer direct.

Thanks for the replies I paid 3k, its a mondeo and the fault is a dying starter, coupled with other symptoms looks like it has been caused by the dreaded dual mass flywheel starting fail (leaving debris and swarf in the starter and generally killing it!) I have since spoken to the garage, no joy, called consumer direct and was advised exactly the same as what you have said majik and also what you said HSBCrusher. I then left it to mull over and was called by the MD who told me he is quite happy to fix with secondhand parts EEEEEEEK but if I wanted new parts I would have to pay. I then called consumer direct and ask if this was right, and was advised that this WAS a suitable repair! So he can nip down the scrapies get some rotten parts and stick them in. greeeeat, thats reassuring.

help me. I'm meek and need a boost.

Hello everyone, my first post here, so I hope this is the right place to post. I have a problem, I bought my car from a dealer a week ago Saturday and it has broken down twice, I have researched the problem online and found out this may lead me to a very sizable garage bill. Where do I go from here? I bought it trade from a garage so no warranty. I called and advised them of the first break down but they never returned my call. I know I have statutory rights, but how do I remind him of this if he is unwilling to help? I'm really rubbish at all of this, so help would be very appreciated thanks Please help if ya can, I need to call him tomorrow, but I don't know how to go about the conversation. Do need to ask him to repair it? Is this something I can do under my Statutory rights?
