Hi all.
I'm stupid. There i said it so u don't have to.
But please if you don't reply anything useful than please just don't
I purchased my first car after working hard for a couple of years.
Its an audi 2.0 tdi sport 5 door black 70k on the clock.
When't to see it , it was close to home. From a small garage/SH car dealer.
Checked the car over it was a lovely condition.
Now the problem is that.
It had listed as 2 owners.
That it has BOSE, cruise control, Bluetooth and CD changer.
I'm not really in to cars to be fair.
I have got a mechanic friend to check the car over and test drive went fine.
It had everything i needed like 5 door and black good tires and wheels, and close to home.
On top of love at first sight they gave a good price for my stupid banger and i was over the moon.
They also agreed to do the cambelt and rear pads which was a lovely bonus.
Now after 3 weeks i get the logbook home and i see that actually im the 4th owner and not the third.
A friend borrowed the car for a weekend and when he gets back he says to me that BOSE would sound better then standard.
I was telling him that it has Bose, but no Bose on the grills.
Also found out it doesn't have cruise, Bluetooth or that ****** cd changer.
I know i haven't check it properly but cashing out 7600 pounds it was a lot of money and i was worried with engine and body condition more than the rest.
They where really hiding the logbook now as i think back. But its to late.
What i have done:
Lucky me that i have taken screenshots whit my phone of the listing.
I have called auto-trader and got the original advert text. ( the latest as they have edited it before took it off sale, but no proof or date recorded on auto-trader)
I even kept the key tag what dealers use and the info is same. it says reg number, milage, 1 former keeper, etc.
I have called the dealer and he says he could look in to a couple of hundred pounds compensation.
Please i know i screwed it up so only reply if you have something good to add.
