Numerous problems with car
My car is 07 registration. I purchased it from a garage in 2009. The car had been traded in. While it was still in warranty I had it in a Peugeot garage on numerous occasions as it wasn't running smoothly or various warning lights would come on.
Nothing was really discovered. Since the warranty has been up I have had to have a new exhaust, clutch and gear box and now have a leak in the radiator. My mechanic says that there is no way all these things should happen on a 4 year old car.
Do you think I have any right for compensation and if so how do I go about it?

These are unusual problems. But you have very limited rights over a 4 year old 2nd hand car purchased two years ago and any rightds you do have are against the dealer who sold it to you, not against Peugeot. See the FAQ.
