cant mind who the my sales man was but im now dealing with angus who might i add is a very nice guy. ok update after speaking to angus he told me on driday that all the problems have been fixed and the car is now working fine as it was a faulty sencer and that they are looking at today or tomorrow for me to get my car so fingers crossed and the reason why i havnt pulled out the deal is because i have tryed to fined a car with the same spec and have failed quite badly i have been down england to see one and let me tell you what a waste of time that was. so i am now just thinking that when i do get this car everything will be like new lol

Patience of a Saint!

I hope you get some extras out of this - don't just accept the car without something for all your hassle etc... Over a months loss of use is got to equate to at least £500 worth of something?

Free service??

Take it back to the garage and tell them to get it sorted. If Taggarts is as good as those people above are saying they will get it sorted double quick. This is an absolute disgrace from what you've posted.

Dont worry about the car being on it's best behaviour when you take it back, there will be codes stored. Also when you do take it back tell then you are more than willing for give them this last opportunity to fix the vehicle but if you get any more problems when they give it back to you then you are going to reject the car.

If they are going to need your car to get looked at/fixed then ensure they give you a courtesy car free of charge! What have you negotiated for your trouble so far? Please don't say nothing?? If what you've posted is true then it is absolutely appauling! Is this a Selekt car or not??

hi all ,to sum it up and especially for sonyvaio you have been misled from the very start milliganpaul did not buy car from taggarts but back street garage ,they in turn tried to fix car ???and failed then it was left upto taggarts,,

now you appreciate its kinda difficult to try sort something out someone else has been there before you ,,,as you dont know what theve done or replaced or tried to have repaired ,,,
yes it must be frustrating but should have come to taggarts 1st for quality car sales and extremely great service..
