Born Hunter 17,907 Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 Was it a private or dealer sale? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
walshie 2,804 Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 Was it a private sale? If so, you don't really have much comeback, because he can't be expected to know all that unless he's a qualified mechanic. If it was a trader, get it back there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WILF 49,440 Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 Private sale ?.......if so mate, it's a case of pay your money and take your chances......sometimes you do your bollocks ! If it's off a car front, then you take it right back and he sorts it or you go to trading standards. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pesky1972 5,626 Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 Dealer you could try getting something back, private sale you'd be wasting your time. Either way I'd say you're onto plums though pal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
haymin 2,465 Posted May 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 Think he's a dealer he buys 4x4 trade inns then sells them, he had a garage with other cars Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You have to give him the chance to fix it first though rather than demanding your money back. IF he's a trader he's liable for anything that goes wrong in the first 6 months as the law assumes anything that goes wrong in that time must have been going wrong when you bought it.

unlacedgecko 1,467 Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 http://www.kapmotorsport.co.uk/suzuki/jimny.php For Jimnys, these guys are top of the league. Their desiel conversions are supposed to be excellent. Would definitely be my first choice for a little 4x4. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
