FridgeFreezer Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 That's where a marker pen, or tippex, or just scratching with a screwdriver can come in handy - you can see if they've changed bits, you can see if they've put a tool on certain nuts or bolts etc. Or just buy a battery powered spy camera and stick it under the bonnet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retroanaconda Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Firstly, some punctuation would make reading your posts a lot easier Secondly, take it (the list) back to where you bought the car and ask them how they think it's okay to sell a car in that condition. Then demand they make it right, else you'll take the matter up with trading standards as the car was not fit for purpose and had blatant flaws.
