How can you take him to court when he offered to repair the car??

Dave Brooker goes quiet, Stan Morris appears. Coincidence? You decide.

im thinking now small claims court.but we dont have the money to pay for a solicitor or the court costs cos the damn dealer has it,so what do we do??

The fee for using the small claims track in court is about fifty pounds. It is not usual practice to engage a lawyer for this kind of case. Generally, however, it can only deal with cases that concern sum of up to 5,000 pounds.

Headgaskets are wear items, presumably the trader is refusing to do any more repairs to the car because you kicked up a stink with the finance company?

That in some respects OP has brought about the situation by their own actions.

From what I can gather from their posts, they buy some pickup, the gearbox goes, the gearbox is fixed, the engine goes, the seller offers to replace the engine, they whinge about the engine number, they moan to police/trading standards/finance house, trader throws in the towel and refuses to help any further.

I'll take that as a yes then so people can update their ignore lists.

So the trader offers to replace the engine and then grind off the engine numbers and you think this is acceptable??? Time for school is it not little boy!
