    How do you know what insurances you have. I very much doubt there is any warranty still available on a 3 year old car.

    You paid £1400 and had it fixed - fine. It broke again - so take it back if they didn't fix it properly they have to sort it. Trading standards!!!
  • mmmm, im having a disput with the garage also, they claim that ''its a different'' broken bit! I just dont know who to believe any more. I dont know enough about cars to know whether the garage are telling the truth or not. How does the trading standards thing work? Should i tell the garage im contacting them to see about poor workmanship? arrrrrrrrgggggggggghhhhhhhhhhh! or i could just invest in a push bike! hee hee

    How old is the car and how many miles does it have on the clock? I bought a 1993 reg car in 2000 and after 6 days it developed a major fault and naturally, the garage said it was nothing to do with them however it was a problem that was guaranteed by the Manufacturor to 100'000 miles who therefore repaired it free of charge
