2nd drive and runs like s"&T

Yeah a similar thing happened to me, I bought a 3rd gen and a fortnight later the engine went pop... It was a private sale so no comeback for me...

I appreciate these things happen, probably more so on an imported car, but I definetly feel the dealer should have tell some responsibility in the matter, and having previous dealings with the dealer think he would put the car right.

Anyhow WGT are one of the better builders/tuners so if your paying yourself then it\'s the best route to go down

To be honest i thought i was dealing with a reasonable and reputable dealer, but  unfortunately so far there is no willing from his side at all.

Shane, there are two sides to this story and you are giving very little of the actual truth and factual points. I do not like arguments or confrontation but nor do i like bad publicity when i simply do not deserve it, i have never been taken to court nor had any problems from Trading Standards in the eight years i have been trading as esp so i consider myself to be a decent guy.
I sold this to you under the motor trade rules which i hasten to add you willingly signed a legal document stating exactly that. The car was already reduced by £500 and then you also got another £500 by buying this way, i\'m sorry but i really can\'t do it all and nor would any other dealer!
You will also recall that i didn\'t want to sell you this car as i made a zero profit on it and was in the process of actually breaking it up for parts that would have actually made me a profit. You insisted i put it back together and sell it to you which i did as requested, you were also made aware of the fact that i was no longer willing to retail sale any rotary powered car be it an RX7 or an RX8 due to the poor reliability.
You were made fully aware how you were buying this car, the document is written in extremely plain English and which a copy of which has been sent to you and one to my solictor who will be more than happy to take this all the way. I do have other key issues regarding the sale but i\'ll hold onto these for now, if you want to take this further then please do so, i think you\'ll find i\'ve dotted the i\'s and crossed the t\'s.

Dave your not the only trader out there to refuse rotary powered cars, D Mcinn car sales near me in Hemel Hempstead said the same thing 7 years ago lol!

I was in there having a look around with my mate at a GT four and generally asked the question if he had any and he just said they were not worth the grief with the crap cars coming over at the time and it was getting crazy with the ones coming back under warranty.

Our cars are inherently unreliable...and if sold on trade terms then basically a private sale Sold As Seen! ....mines had a rebuild but no way would i want to warranty it!!!..... if i ever sold it!
Mines 19 years old! These are old cars now.....get a £2k rebuild with a warranty!

Nice edit... " Nor will there be any?? "

I\'m sorry.. But how am i not telling the actual truth and factual points??

I rang you as soon as i found out and you said that your not willing to do anything. I\'m not lying am i? Sourcing parts just isn\'t good enough I\'m afraid.

Trade sales to a non trader is against the Law. I am a consumer and i have consumer rights.

Looks like Ill have no option but to take Legal Action.

Temporarily locking this thread whilst the mods consider what action to take. The MRC forum was not involved in the sale/purchase of this vehicle and now "legal action" is being mentioned. In those circumstances it may not be appropriate for the topic to be discussed on here.

[Casey]

The MRC Moderating Team note that both parties have had an opportunity to express their sides of this sale/purchase situation. Consequently, in the spirit of the MRC dispute procedure, where both parties are permitted one post each, we conclude both parties have, in effect, already done this and we are consequently locking this thread.

If either party wishes to raise any further issues with the MRC Moderating team then they may direct them via email to team@mazdarotaryclub.com
