Absolute COWBOY Avoid

DONOT BUY!! Do not buy anything from these. Mouthy little Bellend on the Phone shouting and abusive. Sold me a car with a dodgy MOT, Trading standards are now investigating. Big hard man on the phone yet when you turn up hes nowhere to be found, Car had numerous faults and should never have been given MOT. Refused to take the car back but thankfully i used finance and the finance company dealt with it after he was abusive over the Phone. Had to get an RAC report done and the inspector was shocked and disgusted by the faults with this vehicle Good afternoon, please see below information in relation to the Inspection of Vehicle Registration, ML**UPP Vauxhall Zafira Space tourer; Mileage 100869 Initial complaint - -Warning lights on. -Lack of power. -Vehicle going into limp mode and returning to normal with key off engine off and then key on engine on. -Clutch Pedal Sticking. -ECU cable tied on -Squeaking / grinding noise at front of vehicle (suspect abs reluctor/phonic pick up) Fault codes stored on arrival- P0299 p2263 p0673 p003A C0040 Fault codes were then deleted with a road test carried out but all returned, this confirms faults are currently present and require further investigations. Road test- Road tested vehicle on completion of initial prechecks (Levels etc) Lack of boost up until 3000rpm (too high) drivability poor and not safe to pull out of junction due to poor acceleration out of junctions, noise present from braking system with poor operation at rear off side (disc corroded and suspect strip clean or possibly replacement required.) During the road test the clutch pedal stuck down half way and wouldn't fully return (lifting the pedal was required to be able to select a gear to pull off. Issues- The Engine ECU is held in with a cable tie which isn't best practice, there's also writing on the ECU saying that it has been tested, this ecu as well as the faults may or may not be related but this may be relevant during the diagnostic. Live data has been observed during vehicle being static and also road tested with nothing out of the ordinary in relation to the EGR or DPF. Conclusion- Further diagnostics / repairs required and due to the nature of the faults and findings it would be hard to give an exact estimate.
