NacMan 67 Posted October 30, 2019 Bought a corsa from BCA, the history stamps are barely visible without stating on the description, no ticks to state what has been done and then the interior has defect e.g. door handles chrome missing, vents broken. Will they knock me anything off? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick M.K. 574 Posted October 30, 2019 Yes definitely. I would aim at a grand off but will settle for £500 if they play hardball and threaten to close my account. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark101 536 Posted October 31, 2019 Current stock I bought a 57 plate Merc with 1 main dealer stamp. Got the car back and checked the pack, full Merc history. Someone had missed one page in the book but it carried on from there. Got a 59 Merc with no history. Checked the pack - no history book but at least a dozen Merc service invoices in the folder (on a 60k miler) Swings n roundabouts 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
