  1. I did look into it but.... couldn’t see the wood for the trees.
  2. The 2nd 3rd week brings the older PX’s to the rostrum, they tend to be wood quality aswell.
  3. Make sure you turn your phone off.. RRS = boomerang
  4. The clutch simply disengages drive before selecting the next gear. That’s how it operates. Unless you are thrashing it the car slows between gear changes. Otherwise, tell you have a nice Jaz with a Cvt gearbox coming in shortly....
  5. What the judge did was confirm the car was right when it went out..
  6. TV I’ve mentioned it a few times on here in various depths from memory
  7. This is why I take the stance I do. My cars are right when they go out. I cover my ass and protect it. I’m ultimately fair, no more no less. Absolutely.
  8. Yes, I stood my ground and won. Until you’ve wasted a year of your lifecycle you simply won’t appreciate how it takes over. It’s made me so much more wiser. Not scared to say no.....
  9. I agree, it applies reasonably. A 14 year old banger won’t have the same coverage as a 5 year old car. When you have been to court and won, and had numerous battles defending yourself you learn. Until you have been to court you simply don’t know. It all depends on the Magistrate.
  10. You miss the bit which excludes wear commensurate... blah No. Let the public watch
  11. Agreed Exactly. Nope. If the manufacturer won’t guarantee it then I am not responsible equally. It’s as simple as that. This will breed controversy but I’m of that opinion....
  12. There an argument to say anything passed the manufacturer warranty is wear n tear.... if the manufacturer won’t guarantee it why should we.....
  13. Exactly. We are not offering the same guarantee as the manufacturer. 3 years Max on average from new FFS ! it’s 14 years old, did the buyer purchase a warranty to specifically cover a gearbox fault on his 14 year old car ? No, so why should you pay for it to be repaired ?
  14. Why ? 3k is pocket money. It’s a banger, it cost a 20th if it’s original price. It’s 14 year old.
  15. Please give the facts, don’t elaborate, just the facts.
  16. Let them destroy it, the fact they haven’t stopped using it makes them complicit. You are in a legal dispute, the magistrate will dismiss.
  17. I can assure you that is exactly how they drive, it’s a characteristic of the gearbox. Likes
  18. Would you. With a stinking attitude like that you would be told to take responsibility and ownership for the maintenance and repairs of your own car.
