    Why didn't you contact the dealer as soon as you noticed the heavy smoking (which was presumably the first time you drove it in daylight)? You had 30 days then to reject it under the CRA. Instead you went to straight to KwikFit and shelled out £300 on a report. The time to get a report is before you agree to buy.
    How did he describe the car, and what questions did you ask him about it's condition?
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)
