That sucks.

Lovely lady battling with ongoing major cancer treatments. Sold a 2002 bimmer 1800 for $7000
Owned the car for 3 months and had 3 months of major mechanical issues including those caused by the result of salesman telling her to use 91 octane fuel. One issue was a total failure of the hydraulic brakes.
Customer in utter frustration asks for their money back.
Dealers response was to offer to pay half
far as I can tell the dealer was trading on her illness

Ouch, sounds like another cga case? What's case law around claims like this anyone?

"That sucks", I couldn't agree more.
There's some real low life out there, you wonder how they sleep at night.

You can't name and shame on here if it is a TM member. I got told off for that a few weeks ago. Best to use Facebook and that type of media where different rules apply. At the bottom of the heap the worst type of car dealer have not improved from the rouges and vagabonds I worked with in the early 1970's.

I can't name and shame.and have this thread carry on. I think most likely an e mail has been sent to Fair Go though.
