    ex-demo purchase woes

    They have emailed me thrice today since I last posted suggesting that they would refund the deposit if i cancelled the order. I think they are keen to see the back of me. Threatening me that they would cancel the order if they didn't receive the payment within 48 hours but also telling me...

    ex-demo purchase woes

    in UK the definition for tax purposes is also the same, if it has not been registered by anyone other than the manufacturer it can be counted as new for company tax purposes. unlike US, UK doesn't have a mileage limit from what I can see but I am sure HMRC will raise some questions. They have...

    ex-demo purchase woes

    absolutely, its just keeps on getting better and better. one email said warranty till May 2021 and now another said till july 2021. They just called me and I have asked for all communication to be done via email now. I have spent upwards of 10 hours on all this malarkey. Feeling inclined to...

    Hi SR-Plus, this issue becomes even more pertinent for me as the car has already done 48k miles.... yes I am likely to run away but I really don't want them to get away without being a bit more accountable and I want my £100 back. I would prefer to spend it on a few gin and tonics when the...

    ex-demo purchase woes

    You can see that the car wasn't even advertised with the manufacturing year.. the numpty I spoke to said that this information is available on the advert as it says 2017 on the tab... I have never heard such gobbledygook in a long time...it's a shame that I haven't got the whole only chat...

    ex-demo purchase woes

    I am in process of buying a Model S. it was advertised as a new car (ex-demo). No mention of year of manufacturing, details of when warranty runs out or registration number in the advert. The car has already done 48000 miles. The warranty details on the advert said 50000 miles or 4 years (no...

    Buying a 2017 Demo Model X with 17k miles

    the price was around 44k, you can get a much better deal on the used car section by these standards..

    Buying a 2017 Demo Model X with 17k miles

    absolutely, my gripe is that if I hadn't realised this by fluke, I would have paid the money today..I think this is clear mis-selling on their part. I think they are cherry picking aspects of warranty as they see fit and without appropriately informing the customer.. e.g. the 4yr/50k warranty...
