Motorpoint do not sell cars where the buyer is the "First registered Keeper". All their cars are either pre-registered for tax purposes, bought one myself or it was a used car. It is the buyers responsibilty to check the car and if not happy either walk away or get seller to sort. Ours had a small dent on the drivers door, pointed it out and they got it sorted for me to collect a few days later.

5 years later a scratch you noticed soon after purchase is still there, not going to get better is it. The fact it has not rusted means it must have been sorted pretty well.

If you want a perfect car next time buy a new one form a franchised dealer but still go over it with a magnifying glass because even new cars can have defects.

As far as complaining to Motorpoint 5 years after buying it how are you going to prove it was there when you bought it.

You have no chance of getting anywhere with this. Simply because it is soo long since you bought the car.

You was sold the car after it was repaired, You therefore accepted it in this condition. If you noticed it soon after purchase, Then that is when you should have spoken to the dealer about it

Sephiroth100 is clearly a Troll when he post 2 absolutely laughable posts within minutes.

He should get a life.

As should we responding to such nonsense.
