A dishonest and cowboy car sales.

I purchased a beautiful Porsche 911 from this car sales, the salesman(owner) was so enthusiastic about the car, saying how he new the last 2 or 3 owners personally, telling me the car had been used and maintained as a show car. The salesman specificaly pointed out, that the car had been taken to and used at Goodwood Festival of Speed, telling me the car maybe a bit track focused for everyday use, the upgrades included were :~ fully adjustable suspension, a full Brembo brake system, and a complete stainless sport exhaust system. I was told the car had been the owners pride and joy. Great i thought. I bought it. After 3 weeks it started puffing smoke on start up and a tapping noise developed. I telephoned " Grant " and told him this. He accused me off racing the car on a track, implying that I had caused the damage to the engine, when actually the damage was caused by moisture in the engine due to lack of use. He told me that it wasnt covered by the warranty because i had done 2450 miles. ( trip to the Netherlands for New Year). All at motorway speed limits. He told me to get a quote, i did, £2000. I telephoned "Grant" and told him. He replied " Im not interested, call the warranty people". It is now 6 weeks after buying the car and i still have not received any warranty paperwork from him, my car is still in the workshop, I cannot drive it at present. There has been no effort by him to resolve the situation. I have now authorised the workshop to do the work required. I will pay the £2000 myself. DO NOT purchase anything from, "HUCKLEBROOK GARAGE" Or Grant. DO NOT trust him. DO NOT believe him.
