The Bas*ards. Go straight for the jugular. Walk in to the Dealer Principal and ask him if he is the one that should be named in the writ. No more small talk. Take yourself to the local court and file for compensation. Up here it costs 37 pounds up to 1k compo, which you can add to the amount owed. Don't try to be reasonable with toe rags. |

Only you know what your comfortable with but don't let them dictate the way it's done.

I also agree with everyone else. I had a problem when I bought my car and did my usual of finally writing to the Dealer Principal and the CEO of the group who own them stating the facts, that I am unhappy (metion the level of service, expectations of product, service etc) and what are they going to do about it. If you still don't get any joy then involve Land Rover (customer services, CEO of Land Rover and if you can get his address Rajan Tata). I've had to use this method a few times before and it works. The last time was with a bank and the person resolving it was a bit jumpy as he had to report back directly to the CEO that I was happy! |

If that were me I would go and see the CAB or similar and get something printed about goods being rejected as not fit for purpose and buyers rights etc, then take it in to the dealer and ask for my money back.

I'm with Dave on this one - you can't spend that sort of money for an 'approved' vehicle and get so much crap from them!!

You are not unreasonable at all. I'm trying to resolve a problem I've had with my Freelander 2 since the beginning, but to no avail. I'm also trying to get another vehicle (not a land rover) back from a dealership after 3 weeks of excuses as to why they have not got round to finding the fault. Vote of no confidence I'm afraid. I should add that the throttle on my Freelander 2 does not always respond which is a bit worrrying. The dealer's service manager said "It adaps to the way you drive it". I said "Are you having a laugh?" |

Thanks for all of the supportive comments. The person I spoke to was the service manager as the dealer principal was not in. He said the top man would call me, but that has not happened yet. I will wait to see what their response it before deciding what to do next. As for naming and shaming, I don't want to stoop to their level so I am trying to remain as reasonable as possible and will give them one last chance. Lets just say they are my most local dealer, so it probably doesn't take a rocket scientist to work it out.
