Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
I have a 2.5 yr old mini cooper S, bought with 12k last year, now has done 29k. The clutch appears to have gone (yes at 29k of motorway miles) and they (Mini) are asking £563 to remove the gearbox to look at it, and if the clutch is faulty they will meet the costs of the £563 and the clutch. If it has gone through wear then i pick up £563 + the cost of a new clutch.
Does the a 5-yr warranty count for nothing? Feels like the robbery.
Don't know if this helps or not, but I have just had similar experience with warranty. Went to Trading Standards who inform me that warranties are a "Civil matter" so they can't act. They only act on breaches of law. I think that you should check through this site and perhaps you will be covered by SOGA.
You will only be covered if you can show premature wear due to a fault.
Trading Standards wants your help
