    Oil level is ok - where it should be on the dipstick.

    2018 vehicle, 72,000 miles purchase price was over £15,000. Bought with a hefty amount of p/x, bank transfer for deposit & credit card for remaining balance. Other points to note were getting charged for use of a credit card which didn't even cross my mind until I'd paid. I just don't see it being an unreasonable expectation to have an offer of a repair opposed to a 'it's your problem, deal with it'.

    I understand things go wrong, it's mechanical anything can go wrong at anytime and if I'd owned it two years, fair enough my issue, not after two weeks. How it's handled is a different matter.

    The OP has already given the first two bits of information.  The latter isn't really relevant to consumer rights.

    Could be if it goes to SCC.

    The Consumer Rights Act doesn't agree with you.

    Section 9 of CRA says:
    (1)Every contract to supply goods is to be treated as including a term that the quality of the goods is satisfactory.
    (2)The quality of goods is satisfactory if they meet the standard that a reasonable person would consider satisfactory, taking account of—
    (a)any description of the goods,
    (b)the price or other consideration for the goods... and
    (c)all the other relevant circumstances...
