Another Caveat Emptor Thread - with a slight twist

[matjk]

these threads pretty much always end up like this, much nashing off teeth, then a big fat nothing ! Same as the swimming Pool heating debacle, never a resolution. My guess is OP has had the car fixed and paid up himself,

It's only a month since the solicitor's letter - if the OP did start court proceedings after that, there's no way he'd have reached a hearing yet.

It needed a transmission service and a new printed circuit board (PCB). Seems to be running well now so fingers crossed it's fixed.

Above is a reply Chris posted in his comments section of the YouTube clip. Looks like the PCB fix worked.

Would be interesting for the OP to come back and explain how it was resolved (i.e. was there a contribution from the seller). I suspect that many of us were (unfortunately) proven right, and he elected to fund the repairs out of his own pocket, hence the silence.

This was the only possible outcome really...he was unlikely to get anywhere with the seller.
But some closure would certainly be nice.
