New Car that Leaks!

The fault may have been there from the beginning, but it's not one that prevents you from using the vehicle - you've had eight months and 2500 miles (plus whatever mileage you put on the courtesy cars) of use from your purchase - so it's not reasonable to totally discount the depreciation.California wrote: »Hyundai ix35 - leak in passenger foot well - 2,500 miles - registered in August 2013 - Had various courtesy cars - but disputing that I should pay for devaluation of the vehicle as the fault was there from the beginning0 -
New price for ix35 well above small claims court limit. Even allowing for depreciation I think the OP would hope to get more than £10k in settlement.
Yes, fair point. Exceeding £10k would likely put it on a different track - where legal costs are also to play for by either party.
So yes op, proper legal advice and possible reputation may be a very good idea.0
