Description: Very misleading
Communication: Fair
Delivery: Fair
Overall:
When I travelled to ellesmere port from Wigan for this swap I engaged in a conversation with the man he checked my vehicle which to be honest did need a little work but not expensive and until the swap would take place he asked for another £150 which I did not have I was desperate fir a vehicle with tow bar and agreed on a £50 extra my vehicle was worth lots more than this vehicle but as I said I was desperate I did know that the focus required a new centre pipe which was explained to me which I had researched at appox 40 pound but when I drove home the noise got worse and the car filled with smoke I immediately took to garage in morning who fitted complete system and gaskets at cost of £275 and drove away a few days later after only using this vehicle twice short distance I went on a longer journey where the vehicle dash totally switched off and I lost power then after a couple of seconds started ip again I have taken to an auto electrician and this too has cost me £475 also whilst cleaning this vehicle thoroughly after week of having the vehicle found several small packages of drugs cannabis resin in each one that I immediately took to the police the vehicle is also costing me £25 for a new v5 which wax not present at the time of purchase oh and below a list of other problems with this vehicle my advice is not to swap with this swapper because hd is a so called car dealer what a load of bullshit I'm now seeking legal advice 3 illegal tyres Tow bar electric faulty Headlight beam uneven and leaking water into lighting Alternator problem Oil filter not fitted correctly and leaking Radio looses it's code every time power fails New windscreen wipers front and rear ( now I'm being picky)
User reply: I had the car for a week and used it everyday! Even on a 300 mile round trip to south wales and had no issues apart from the knackered exhaust pipe which was described in listing. The swapper turned up with his Chrysler who said it was in good condition and only had a small dent under light! On inspection the car had been hit by a 4x4 and had crushed the bumper, rear panel, chassis leg and a whole in the quarter panel!!! £650 later and it\'s fixed but then the power steering failed because the wrong fluid has been used and caused the pump to seize up which then cost me another £550 to have rectified!!! He never even looked at focus on the night of the swap but feels I misled him! The only person losing is me cause I\'ve spent out over a £1000 for a shit car
