No response from dealer as yet! Have booked the car in with a gearbox specialist for a diagnostic next week. If the dealer does not respond do I send another letter stating that I am taking him to court or just lodge the claim on line with the court system costs £210. Anyone had experience of anything similar and if I take him to court what are the chances of winning as I simply cannot afford to loose this money. Will post the dealers response as soon as I recieve one.

Thanks for the response. Yes I have given the dealer 7 days to rectify the matter i.e to refund and collect the vehicle. I have also stated that apart from the trip home I have not and will not use the car. Any advice on what I should say when he contacts me >

I did not notice the mileage discrepancy as I was concentrating on checking that everything worked. The service book had stamps in it but at that time I was unable to verify whether they were dealers or not, its only on later checking that I have confirmed them to be ordinary garages.

Hi I am a new user after some advice. I purchased a used Porsche Boxster from a trader last week paying for the car on Tuesday 07/08/2012 and picked the car up Friday 10/08/2012. On the drive home I noticed a problem engaging 4th gear which continued for nearly all the gear changes on the way home. I was offered a test drive but only got to drive a mile and only engaged 4th gear twice in that as it was on a country road and the problem did not show. Also the car was advertised as having 77000 on the clock and actually has 80000, a stamp in the service book confirms it had done 79000 at the beginning of July. The advertisement also states "Porsche service history" but on closer inspection only 2 out of the 9 stamps are actually Porsche. Also before purchase I asked the dealer if there were any faults with the car to which he replied "No Known faults" I have this as a text message. The dealer claimed to have driven the car some 200 miles to have a new rear screen fitted the week before, so must have experienced the fault. Having contacted one or two specialist garages who say that there is a fault with the syncromesh on this gear, a serious and expensive repair. I have written to the dealer stating that I wish to reject the vehicle on the grounds that it is not of satisfactory quality and the fact that I was mislead over the mileage and fault situation. I am awaiting a response from the dealer and welcome any comments as to what I shoild say when the dealer contacts me ?
