Not the best.

Went to look at the car back in July last year, advised that it comes with warranty for 3 months, but the purchase price would have to be over £1.5k for the warranty to be valid. Asked if I could take it for a test drive, but due to staff sickness that day it would leave no one in the office, so the answer was no. Almost immediately the car started having problems. Head lights would come on randomly when they wanted to, and wouldn't always switch off. Brakes didn't sound good, and was advised by independent garage that this car would have had the break issues for sometime, as the car dealership had apparently put the car through an MOT and service not long before I bought it, this should have been picked up. The boot of the car, where I spare wheel is kept, continued to fill with water, causing condensation inside the car. A short while later the sump needed replaced, and again advised that if the MOT and service had been done correctly then this would have been detected. Fortunately I was at the end of the street I live, Had it happened just 5 minutes later than I would have been on a very busy dual carriage way. I do hold my hands up, and realise I should not have bought the car when the request for a test drive was denied. However, my own idiocy buying the car, does not excuse the dealership from selling a car that most certainly wasn't fit for purpose, and certainly not safe.
