so why give out a warranty if its worthless,sorry im new to all this,and what about the mileage?
|

For £1895 you can do far, far better. They are probably the worst car in their class as regards longevity. Do you particularly need a diesel...?
There is huge choice with much lower mileage around for that money, a pick has of course got to be a nice lower mileage petrol Focus, better in every way.

( sorry whats SOGA? )
I've said in previous posts ,that some customers who come to view my cars have no concept of HPI or VOSA .Now another example .
Is it surprising that the general car buying public is taken advantage of by independent dealers and multiple garage groups alike .
Who's really at fault , the dealers or car buyers ,how many buyers do any research into the potential nightmare of buying a stolen car or a car that's been written off .
The colour of a used car often seems more important to a used car buyer than checking clear title .The reason for my rant . A buyer who doesn't trouble to do easily available checks and gets his fingers burnt , is very quick to tell all and sundry that all used car dealers are robbers and con men .
No were not ! make a little effort and protect yourself .

tony g: I'm not entirely sure what you are asking here, you appear to be suggesting that if a dealer supplies a vehicle which has been stolen, written off etc, that it is up to the seller to have checked all of this first and therefore it must be their fault? I'm afraid I would strongly disagree, and I imagine most others would too. Dealers charge more than private sellers because they - supposedly - offer a service of some type, the 'safety' of buying from a trader and the comeback that offers. It is surely then up to you, the dealer, to provide that service. If I am to be expected to ensure that your stock is not unsaleable before I buy it from you, why should I then pay extra for it and provide you with a profit - I would surely be better off paying less for a private vehicle passing those same checks?! The law would also seem to take a different view to yours, hence the Sale of Goods Act and suchlike.

Hi hp ,
I'm not asking anything ,what I'm saying is that car buyers to often don't make any attempt to protect themselves .
The information on HPI ,VOSA and Soga ,is readily available ,yet to many buyers don't make any effort to do the necessary research .They still ask me what's HPI ,and what's the certificate /check that I offer .Im not suggesting buyers should do the check themselves ,but as a minimum they should know what the checks represent .
Don't forget thar SOGA only comes into play when a problem occurs ,buyers seem to know less about SOGA than they do HPI .Dont believe me ,check out the number of posts in the legal section asking what are my rights now I've bought a problem car .
Why buy from a dealer ?part exchange is one of the major reasons .
