meric review of the car warehouse

Bought a Mitsubishi evo 6 from The Car Warehouse in Middlesbrough and waited for it to arrive from Japan, further to this I then waited 6 weeks for the DVLA to register it. Then I collected it and drove it home where it developed a loud knocking from the front ,I contacted The Cra Warehouse and they said to book it into a garage where I lived because I was 300 miles away. At this time I thought fair enough, so I got it to a garage a week later only to find the fromstrut had collapsed, NO oil left in shock so they ordered a full set of coil overs which was nice until they turned up. They made out this cost more than standard but really it was the other way around they were the cheapest nastiest coil overs you could get with terrible reviews .Anyway to cut a long story short I drove 750 miles in this car and in the end I parked it up and had an inspection done by a reputable company which found the car unsafe all 4 wheels badly cracked and unsafe ,sump was damaged so that's why they forgot to service it, both bottom ball joints were no good ,rear diff had major problems engine wouldn't run and idle properly and wrong engine mounts fitted . So I wanted a refund. They dragged it out and cost me over £1500 in hire cars and inspections only to say they think I neglected the car in the little mileage I had done. They dismissed on inspection and did one them selves which I paid (they didn't know) a mechanic to stay with there inspector who found a lot of problems and as my inspector did condemned the car. Funny how they wouldn't give me a copy of there report said it was for there court defence.
