Dirty let down.

DM · 15 Nov 2010 at 08:13

That dirty let down i was buying my new car from has transferred my deposit back into my account last night, just noticed it this morning, no call no email nothing.

How bloody ignorant is that, good start to the week, just thought i'd have a rant.

There might be a good explanation, don't get too stressed before you speak to them

paradigm · 15 Nov 2010 at 08:21

I'd be bloody livid. Were you trading yours to the guy or selling on privately?

Another CGT? You kept that quiet

Was the deal a particular bargain, maybe they had a better offer if it was?

It was a belter lovely colour, really low miles mulliner spec one, but best of all it had a GIAC map on it, which i could just get done but this was already done. Very irritating i really liked that car.

No, He didn't. It's been mentioned in a number of threads, including one started by Mark talking about the very car in question.

Aaah yes, I remember now - you'll have to excuse my lack of coffee

the next worst thing is... you now want it more because its seemingly unobtainable! (definately applies to me)

Yea i really did like that car, anyway i have spoken to him and he says he is having cash flow problems, which is all rubbish because i just offered to buy it instead of part exing mine and he says he still cant do it.

The crowning glory was did i want 100 quid for my wasted trips out there.

Sounds like he's sold it to someone else for more money.

Cosimo · 15 Nov 2010 at 09:18

That is bad. I'd like to be a fly on the wall when you call him.

Thats whats happened, cash flow my arse he should have just said that and be done with it.

These dealers must live on reputation of such high service - if he's screwed you over might as well warn other people who also might waste money and time with him?

Are these cars easy to find or will it be better to get the work done to your one?

I once went to London to buy a car and the buyers mum was waiting outside the buyers house - she told me he'd changed his mind and couldn't face telling me. So he let me hire a car and drive to London and got his mum to sort it out the mess on his doorstep.

His mum took my details and promised to send me £75 to cover the cost of fuel and the hire car etc. Sure enough I never received the money.

That colour will be hard to find because it was a special individual or whatever its called, i'l find another its just a pest because i like that car.

No point slagging the man on here because i dont know for sure do i.

Heh. I've got cashflow problems, so I'll give you your £17k back, and also reject your higher all-cash offer for a car I have.

Sounds like the kind of person you don't want to buy a car from, anyway - count it as a blessing.
