It's not the point surely! The cost of transportation and the cost of the starter motor. We paid full asking price in good faith. Why should we be liable for all these extra costs.

Bearing in mind we have returned the car every other time when a problem has arisen.

It's says in section 9.1 of Shetland that the dealer is NOT responsible for fair wear and tear,were the vehicle broke down or fault emerged through normal use. Well the car broke down at my house 30 miles away 8days after sale, surely we are not responsible for the costs in the low loader? It will be around £200+.

Well Iv now written him a letter rejecting the car and wanting a full refunds as the car is not fit for purpose under the sale of goods act 1979(amended) I have given him 14 days to act or we will go down the small claims court.

Please help, are we liable for a low loader bill and paying for the part, he has offered to fix but we have to get the car to him 30 miles away.

Thank you ever so much for your very informative and helpful reply. 95% of our conversations have been through txt msg so have them saved. It's a difficult one as the dealer does seem a fairly nice chap and has mended the knocking. We paid full asking price for the car with a cam belt change( his idea) and 12 months mot. On another note he said we have done 400miles in the car since we have owned it(from mot date reading) we have driven from Weymouth to the garage on 3 occasions with the problems which is around 150 miles other than that she has done about 4 school runs1/2 mile each way, to the Chinese once around 4/5 miles and shopping at the supermarket once around 5 miles, he had possession of the car overnight and for 2 days.

Hi guys in need of some advice please. Bought the other half an audi 80 on the 25/6/14 from a small dealer in poole, dorset Paid £2750 with 3 months warranty and 12 months MOT. Car is a T on a 99 with fsh new cam belt on 77k Noticed a few problems with the car on the day we bought it, steering was pulling to the left quite bad(she didn't notice on test drive) Liquid coming out of heater dials on dash and the front end was clunking. Phoned dealer about problems and was told to return the car on two occasions to get problems corrected. Knocking seems fixed, liquid was he spilt oil he said so he cleaned it up and he got the tracking done. Drove home and the car is still pulling quite bad to the left, this was last night, the dealer suggested that I take it to get the tracking done as they may not have adjusted it correctly. The misses went to drive the car tonight, first time since bringing it back from poole ( first time properly in fact)and now won't start, battery is fine, electrics fine so I'm assuming it's the starter motor, tried to ring the dealer and it rang once then said answer phone so tried on the mrs phone and it rang all the way to answer phone so I think he may have blocked me, tried again just now on mrs phone and it rang once then to answer phone( he had my mrs number as I left mine at home on first trip up) now his phone is off. Update. Managed to get hold of the dealer, he is adamant that we have to get the car low loaded to his premises at our cost 30 miles away, he also said we have to pay for a new starter motor, so all in it will cost us another £300 approx, without the steering issues. After numerous txt msg exchanges he agreed to come to our house to see if it may be a fuse. He turned up this morning had a little poke around the car, and still says that we need to bring the car to him at our cost. I said I will make a few calls and get in touch. What do I do now and do we have a chance of rejecting the car, it's been problem after problem and only bought it 2 weeks ago. Many thanks.
