That the op has done this several times before to multiple manufacturers, 2 of which have involved handing the car back at no personal expense
As far I can see it happened to him with a McLareb in 2018.I am sure you will also tell us Macca were a paragon of reliability back then.
You don't know what personal expenses were involved in both cases.

You enjoy drawing conclusions and moral judgements about people you don't know based on very little evidence.

But you can't see that people could do the same about you based on a lot more evidence in this thread and others.

Good luck with the Roma purchase, while I don't have experience of the Roma, I think you will find that warning lights will likely be a constant in your future.
I just had a discussion with a friend yesterday, that I would pick a Roma over a Turbo S if I were in the market for such a car - just feels more special imo, even if it is ultimately a less accomplished (and probably slower) car, and I really like how they look - especially in "muted" colors (I don't think I would get a rosso corsa one, maybe one of the special reds though)

Edited to add: and always put it on a trickle charger, Ferraris hate low voltage on the battery (and somehow seem to pull more current than any other car I have ever had when switched off)

Fascinating Storyline. Can only add my first 992
back in 2019 had a lot of electrical issues which
the OPC sorted over time and never regretted keeping it primarily as a result of the service they provided

Mate, what is your problem!?

My posts are not directed at you they’re directed at the op, so why are trying to silence me? It really is none of your business and if the op isn’t offended why are you?

Get on with your life and ignore my posts because I don’t see individuals on forums, I reply to posts. Targetting individuals on the internet is the pasttime of bullies and trolls. I really am not that important in your life .

If there’s an ignore button, use it.

Says the guy who has repeatedly accused the OP of manipulating the system to get free high performance cars?

I think you've spent too much time at the cynic centre. The OP just wants a car that works.

Tbh I agree it was a shrewd move by the OP to post on here……thoughts?

And also laughed at the initial/very hopeful 40p a mile (£1000) deduction……

I thought you were being harsh on the OP, mainly.

Though you'll note the only thing I've actually called you out on is posting about being done with the subject and then repeatedly returning, and even then, I've not even made a comment about it.

Yeah and those of us who disagree with him are calling him out.

Or perhaps this is part of the OP's master plan to generate more publicity?

Muzzer, you try very hard to engage me in an internet fight. You and a few others follow me around the forums disagreeing with me and trying to make things personal. I don’t bother with that nonsense as I’m a strong believer in putting in writing what I’d say to someone’s face and I don’t know you, so why bother with attacks?

My view is my view. I’ve expressed it - the op is not offended. Life goes on . Folk ganging up to attack me is really a waste of time. I’m not that important and I’d rather you debated with me rather than degenerate into jibes. Debate is more fun but I understand why you struggle with it. For some the internet is real life.

Oh well…

Who's engaging anyone in anything?

As for following you around, or ganging up on you - I think you inflate your own noticeability there I'm afraid.

You are entitled to your view, absolutely. I'm calling out the irony of you claiming you're being targeted but at the same time making some pretty strong assumptions about the OP.

If you're going to express your opinion, especially a strong one, expect it to be challenged.

I have never tried to silence you, nor have I insulted you with 'jibes'. confused

Hats off to the OP, I wasn't expecting that so easily!

I still fundamentally disagree with opting for the last resort first, whether that be in marriage, conflict, debt, rejecting a car, whatever. But I accept we all have different thresholds for throwing in the towel.

I've had my eyes opened with this thread, I'm just not sure what I'll take away.

If the OP had wanted to keep the car then he would have let them fix it, but he didn't and fancied something else a Roma I think, so used his consumer rights to return the car, you can't have a go at him for merely exercising his rights.

Nicely played if you ask me I don't understand why people have an issue with it.

I commented a while ago that I had rejected a new 911.

I have been in contact with the op and it is the same dealership.

When I rejected mine I felt crushed to be frank. I had waited 2 years for it.

The lent me a turbo s and we're a delight to deal with. They were given time to resolve the issue and could not do so.

Would I buy another ? Maybe. I am currently too busy to spend time on another toy , but my car and the 2 brand new loan cars all had issues so the overall quality control is poor. By contrast my Cayenne just works.

No one can buy a car with the aim of gaming the system. The car must have a real fault to reject it.

You have 2 opportunities. Month 1 and month 6. There is no " oh let's give them a chance ". If you are on one of these dates you must act. Now the dealer may then do a deal with you and allow a further period of rejection etc post another repair ( I was offered this ) but at the outset at 6 months and a day you are out of luck.

The comments about the op are in my view pretty poor and I suspect come from those content to hide behind a keyboard and not drop £200k on a toy in the drive.

The dealers know your rights as well as you do and in my case ( and the op it seems ) simply and efficiently did what the law requires. What else would you expect them to do ?

Exactly. It's super easy to be aggressively judgemental when it's not your money.
