    • See what you think of the attached. I have to do some proofreading of an English grammar book for an Italian publisher this weekend - for money! - so I'm afraid corrections and suggestions will come in dribs & drabs.  I've totally knackered the layout, the numbering and the order of your Exhibits but there will be several versions done so don't worry about that ATM. Your arguments are superb. What is less superb is the way you jump from one to the other and back again, so I haven't changed your words, but I have moved the paragraphs around and given each section a heading. New bits are shown in red. Crossed out crossed out in black is something you've quoted from the government Code of Practice, but that has since been withdrawn so unfortunately that argument has to go. Your paras 7 & 8 don't harm your case but to me are waffle and can go.  Keeping the arguments clear & concise will always impress a judge. IMPORTANT - did you ever send Simple Simon a CPR request?

    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

azza, Just because I am not giving you the response you would like to hear doesn't mean I'm wrong. You are more than welcome to ignore my (correct)interpretation of the law. You will find out the truth if you do decide to take it to court.

 

Sam, other than typing insults I will again ask. What qualifications in consumer law in particular used vehicle sales do you have?

 

I'll give you the answer you want to hear; NONE. However, both Conniff and Helio know that isn't actually true but I have wasted enough time and energy with you as it is. Take a look at the little green squares in my profile window, they indicate how many acknowledgements I've had off people who I have assisted so far. And no, each square does not represent 1 acknowledgement. I'm sure though you have heard of a FCATS certificate.

 

I have nothing to prove to you. I am sorry however, that the OP has possibly been confused and miss-lead by the arguments that have occured during this thread which is why I have openly (more than once) suggested that the OP takes advice from ACTUAL qualified sorces (such as Trading Standards) so he can decide for himself whose advice he chooses to follow. Clearly the OP has satisfied himself that the advice i am giving is a tad more accurate and reliable than yours. The OP has further indicated to you that he no longer requires your input so I would sugest that you respect that which has been also requested by the site team.

 

Our conversation is at an end Jeepstar.

Out of interest, what were the MoT failures mentioned?

 

Sorry, I missed this out on my last quote reply. The MoT failures were:

 

Reason(s) for refusal to issue Certificate

Nearside Rear Rear position lamp(s) not working (1.1.A.2b) **DANGEROUS**

Nearside Front Side repeater incorrect colour (1.4.A.2d) **DANGEROUS**

Nearside Front Windscreen washer provides insufficient washer liquid (8.2.3) **DANGEROUS**

Nearside Rear Brake load sensing valve linkage seized (3.6.E.4) **DANGEROUS**

Rear Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (7.1.2a)

Nearside Rear Exhaust emissions carbon monoxide content after 2nd fast idle excessive (7.3.D.2b)

Advisory Notice issued

N\s\inner c/v/boot leaking slight air leak on servo

 

 

It must have had the problems above sorted out as it passed it's MoT the following day, but with the same advisory notice attached.

Load sensing valve needing freeing off is B****y dangerous especially on a wet road. The fact that it was seized warrants a red ticket.

 

It would therefore appear that the standard of the test carried out 10 months ago is very iffy indeed. Two safety system items here. 1 advisory which should have been an immeadiate fail and 2. a seized load sensing valve where frankly if not changed by the MOT garage should have required the car either trailering away or being towed.

 

Other items are not realy dangerous but are a requirement that they work.

 

And before jeepstar starts blowing hot air about it being ok to free off, bare in mind why it seized in the first place. Freeing off never gets them back to full working condition and really should have been replaced. Check to see if it looks newish.

OK jeepstar. Get me same said type of car and I'll lock LSV valve as though it seized, then put a leak into the servo. I'll put a load equivalent to a weeks shopping for a family in there as well, unsecured to help you.

 

Now you take it up a motorway in heavy rain at 60 mph and hit the brakes hard in traffic.

 

Result is that most probably this site and thread will get back to normal as you wouldn't be around but the unfortunate thing is you'd take out a lot of innocent people as well.

 

If I proposed this same said test under controlled test conditions by a team of test drivers such as I use they would tell me very quickly to foxtrot oscar and I'd probably be referred to the company psychatrist for even suggesting it.

 

If you had an ounce of decency about you, you would comply with post #99 as requested.

 

It is pretty obvious you have no real technical background or qualifications and previous posts suggest you are indeed a pub mechanic. You might have fiddled with cars and buy and sell them but you are no true reflection on the good side of the motor industry. In fact your attitude is exactly that which the industry is trying to avoid.

 

Finaly, please refrain from posting on this thread any more so we can get on with helping the op.

 

If you want a ruck start your own thread and I'm sure you'll get one but when you have been warned take heed. My fish one is the one to use if you don't have the imagination to create your own. Hurl abuse at that NOT here.

So whats happened to our new guest; Motortrader then?

 

My guess would be motortrader was jeepster/jeepster2. It would explain why he was singing to the same tune as him.

Its not good that your thread has attracted so much attention from unwelcome sources azza.

I find it quite staggering at the lengths and determination some will go to.

Hopefully now things can continue without these disruptions,but I and the rest of the site team will be monitoring just in case.

Its a good idea to print off the conf of delivery page with signature,then staple this with your PO receipt to a copy of the LBA.

I've just checked the tracking code and it looks like it's either not been delivered yet, either that or it was posted without a signature?

 

Item AH746418384GB was posted at Tates Lateshoppe DN2 5HY on 14/05/11 and is being progressed through our network for delivery.

 

Surely a week on from being posted 1st class recorded it's been delivered!

No it doesnt mean that its not yet been delivered.

It could well be that the postman has not yet entered the data from his scanner onto the system.

If it has been delivered and there was no sig...it will usually say something like....your item xxxxxxx was delivered from our xxxxoffices on xxxxx we do not have proof of sig at this time please come back later........

So worth looking again maybe Monday afternoon.

Hi guys. I've been checking the Royal Mail website all week to see if the delivery info for the letter had been updated and it's remained the same throughout.

 

The deadline for the dealer to respond to the lba letter was today and yet I've heard nothing. What is the next step now? I'll have another chat with CD and see what they say but being bank holiday weekend this will have to be on Tuesday at the earliest.

 

Many thanks

Aaron

Which is precicely why I would only send such an important letter by Special Delivery. Most businesses get their post delivered in a bundle with an elastic band around and 9 times out of 10 are not asked to sign unless the recorded letter happenes to end up on top.

 

Special delivery is always treated differently and a signature will be obtained or the letter will not be delivered.

 

Your letter may or may not have been delivered - you just cannot prove it. However, in court you can show that you sent it.
