Faulty car....avoid!

Dangerous car from dodgy dealer....AVOID! Car developed problems no more than 1/4 mile from his car lot on day of purchase. I requested a refund to which he refused. Said he would fix the problem, 3 days later he claimed it was fixed. Low and behold It was not, with the car billowing black smoke from the exhaust and rear wheels grinding. Taken to an independent garage, who advised turbo was completely gone, and wheel bearings were almost seized solid in rear. Approached the dealer for a refund again, who has stopped answering calls and emails. Reported to trading standards as refusing to give refund and have commenced legal proceedings. Don’t be fooled by his cars having Full MOT, as he gets his mate from Mann Motors in Leicester to do them, and they are now being investigated by the DVSA for issuing MOT’s that are false. If the dealer had one ounce of integrity and admitted liability I would be prepared to give him a chance, but he is nothing short of a dodgy salesman. Check other reviews on the internet before buying. Avoid like the plague!
