Answers:
Sue him! It should have been in working order when he sold it to you, or he should ave pointed out any defects.
if its a good dealer he should help
sounds like you went to a dodgy back street one
Your broken English is hard to fully understand but is sound as if you were taken. Try small claims court but if the car had the sticker on the window no Warranty as is, your probably stuck.
depends on how much you paid for the car, a dealer only has to give you a warranty if you pay more than a grand you would get at least 3 months warranty ,anything less then that and you dont normally get one as it will depend on the dealer, so you might be out of warranty anyway, the only other thing you can do is threaten him with trading standards, the only problem with that is did you sign a sold as seen receipt if so you dont have a leg to stand on.
The phrase "not my problem any more" kind of leads one to believe that the dealer considered this car a problem at one time, I suppose you should at least talk to an attorney and get the legal slant on this. Good luck.
I'm assuming this was a used vehicle. Was it presented as "As is" or did you get a warranty with it? If you got a warranty, how long did it last? If 3 months or less, you're out of luck because the time has elapsed. The fact that you parked it notwithstanding. You should have known the problems BEFORE purchase, not 3 months down the road. So the dealer is right, not his problem.
Caveat Emptor
Take legal action.
Report him to DVLA for selling cars that were clearly not in a roadworthy condition.
Then report him to trading standards for selling miss selling cars, and for selling items that aren't of saleable quality.
If it was a car dealer then check the contract, if you bought it privately I'm afraid he's right, sold as seen!
If it was a car sales place you got it from I'd threaten to report him, not sure who to but I'm sure someone will know!
Ring your local Council and ask for Trading Standards. They will advise you of your rights, and will even send a sample letter for you to copy.
chris you dont say what the car is so it hard to figure if the tappets can be fixed or not if overhead camshaft lot of work involved i would still report the seller or have a word with friendly police officer who might make a SUGGESTION to the seller or if bought from a dealer contact their hq may intervene with a quite word bad business could lose him his dealership what make of car is it
once you have bought a car it's on your head to get anything fixed that you didn't see before you bourght it
uk law means the seller has more rights than the buyer sorry
