ZMANALEX Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 If you do not get off your arse and do as suggested then you will get fook all. However if you do not want to act on the informed advice given then that is your choice. 1 Quote
Ekona Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Well, indeed! Even if they tell him he needs to refund, unless you chase it he's not going to do anything, is he? Quote
Wicksaay Posted November 23, 2015 Author Posted November 23, 2015 no, i agree with that... but surely i should await the reply before i summon him to court? of course i will chase but really i need to know what his end are saying before i proceed? Quote
Ekona Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 No, you don't! Do you honestly think that they are going to turn around and tell him to pay you back, and that he's then going to do so out of the kindness of his heart? No, of course not. They will advise him, and he doesn't have to tell you what they said, so he'll sit there until you bug him again. Then you're another month down the road and no closer. Just go and start the proceedings now, you can do it all online, these things don't just happen overnight. At least he'll know you're serious then. Right now, he's gambling you'll just go away. 5 Quote
tomzzzcattle Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Hi, so sorry to hear of your situation, I would think its just best to proceed, as the garage is probably using delay tactics! All the best with it and hope it all works out for you. Quote
Wicksaay Posted November 23, 2015 Author Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) Ive contacted my solicitor this morning, im awaiting a reply.. im sure i will be raising a court summons at some point this week... im on holiday as of next week, and my 30 days are up while im away :/ but i have evidence of the letter sent and the rejection was made within the 30 days, so i shouldnt have a problem there. ill keep you posted!

veilside z Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Hoping this sorts out a clear cut case and is sorted out for you without too much stress, after all you have purchased the car you love and don't need the edge taking off it. 1 Quote
Wicksaay Posted November 23, 2015 Author Posted November 23, 2015 OK, I have been advised by Buckles Solicitors, that if i dont revieve anything in writing by Thursday i will be doing a court summons. (y) Quote
Ekona Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 You don't actually do a summons, you know that? Quote
Wicksaay Posted November 23, 2015 Author Posted November 23, 2015 yeah, its like an online portal thing isnt it? where you open a case... Quote
Wicksaay Posted November 23, 2015 Author Posted November 23, 2015 to be fair, its all going through my missus uncle that works for Buckles, so ill just follows what he says... Quote
jimmy.farrow7 Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Best of luck bud keep us posted Quote

NeilMH Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Great news. Well done. And fingers crossed that all is well with the rebuild. Quote
Ekona Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 30 day warranty?! Please don't tell me you actually fell for that? The car is covered STILL by the CRA, regardless of any other gumpf he throws at you. Still, glad you got a good result. Would you care to share with us how this came to pass, so others can benefit and know what process to follow should they find themselves in the same situation? Bet Friday can't come fast enough!

Haha! your right, it cant come fast enough! Im just sick of not having a car now, and to be honest seeing i had it 10 days before it blew 30 days is fine with me! will give me enough time to see if its running ok! Its costing me a fortune being without a car, so its a saving grace that i got this! because it costs nearly £700 to actually get a court date! you have to pay an initial fee to open a case and then a 'hearing fee' which is nearly £400! so im glad i avoided court to be honest! Really the guy had nothing to go on, he tried to use the excuse of 'its been driven like a racecar' and 'erratic driving' but had nothing to back it up what so ever! He then obviously realised that i meant business when i got a solicitor involved. He kept stooling for days with replying ect, ect. i then got the court letters drawn up and ready to post, which was enforced by my solicitor and he decided that he then wanted to avoid court and decided to buckle as he knew i wasn't going to! Also, when my solicitor spoke to 'Lawgistics' his 'Legal Reps' he was told that Lawgistics had already advised him to settle this case weeks before, so he was then being charged by them for defense as he wasnt following their instructions. i sure this pushed the 'out of court' settlement too!

370Ad Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Great news. Hopefully you like the Z after all this effort! At least you will never let it run out of oil again 1 Quote
ZEUS Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Good result. Check the oil level every day. Quote
