In the eyes of the law you have rights as a buyer or consumer even for second hand goods, especially cars, unfortunately most people just accept/think they've been ****ed so carry on accordingly.
Like Hans said, it was sold as working but in fact delivered broken, it doesn't matter that Beau didn't realise till the seller had disapeared over the horizon. A purchased item should be fit for purpose and that is the basis of trade law regardless of the sale format.
If things were done properly then a receipt should've been written out, with a record of anything worth noting plus the mileage on the odometer. Beau could have paid a fee to an inspection engineer including the difference in mileage on the odometer and no doubt they would have deduced it has in fact been broken for longer than a 50mile trip and a few minutes at idle, then an ombudsman could have taken it from there, small claims court if necessary, Beau wouldn't be out of pocket then at all.
Come on people, none of us know **** about this, so stop trying to blame people.
It could just as easily be the buyer that kicked the **** out of the GT straight away, thus killing it. It's been seen before, but the point is: No one knows.
Admin/moderator: Maybe its time for this thread to be locked?
yeah agree nothing useful to come from this thread anymore.
Locking will only prevent the other side of the story coming out if someone chooses to put it across so no locky.
Just read the entire thread and feel sorry for Beau obviously. Theres is one thing missing from this tread and that being a response from Brad, but what exactly are people expecting the man to say? heres a refund?
Beau has spoken to him and has informed us he is sorry for what happened and feels bad about it, even if he did post a response he is going to get slaughtered by all the keyboard warriors no matter what, Brad is in a lose lose situation.
Pretty sure the only loser in this situation is Beau.
Im not disputing that i'd be pi$$ed off! Brads reputation has been Shot down but what do people seriously expect him to say?
Bradley an beau have spoken over the phone since it's happend and what's been said is between them. At end of the day as someone said this thread might aswell be locked as it's just constant circles lol. Brad won't come back on here and write a comment because he doesn't care what people think about he's "rep" he's out of the punto game and couldn't care less so all this waffle does seem generally pointless lol
