Beware! Ensure you take a car expert...

I unfortunately bought Kinetic’s “LOW MILES WITH SERVICE HISTORY SUPER EXAMPLE” 2014 Subaru Outback after seeing the advert on AutoTrader and so far 2,000 pounds has been spent on it at my local Subaru garage... None of the four major faults were mentioned on the advert. Two of them were repaired at Subaru’s expense as safety recalls, the faulty glow plugs he will claim that I knew about after he had been forced to admit what the warning lights on the dashboard were saying and the broken reversing camera he claims was not on the car when it was clearly stated on the advert. The Subaru garage took pity on me and solved the engine oil leak gratis as they had to take the engine apart to replace the glow plugs. I dread the coming MOT test result... I am old and mature enough to take a bad buy on the chin and luckily I have the wherewithal to afford the odd disaster but neither AutoTrader or Kinetic were remotely interested in the difference between the advert and reality... Caveat Emptor!!!
