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.
Well, it seems I'm not the first to have issues with these cowboys....
I bought a Seat Leon Cupra from them in December 06. I've done about 4000 miles in it and now it needs a new engine. Basically the oil strainer has got blocked up with sh*te and has starved the head of oil, leaving it seized and with a snapped cam.
The Seat dealer has quoted £3.5k to get a brand new engine and fit it. Obviously, I can get a recon engine fitted elsewhere for about £1500, which is better than £3.5k but still a lot.
The NAC warranty booklet says that they will pay upto £1295 per claim. WHen the garage contacted them they said no that's wrong and the max they will pay is £300. I can't believe it.
Someone at the RAC told me that if a fault like this comes out within the first 6 months of ownership it's taken as the fault was there when the car was sold. How accurate is this?
Where do I stand? Should I have it repaired and persue them for reimbursement or should I demand they sort it??
Carcraft and NAC!!
