Motor traders :mad: - very few are honest.
My 2nd ex was in that trade - I saw what he and his cronies got up to - I have never bought a car 2nd hand since.

Evans Halshaw are a bunch on muppets.

I bought a brand new £16,000 car off them and about 18 months later noticed a rust spot on the rear door. Took it back and they said it was no problem as it would be covered by the warranty. They then ran some 'tests' on it and said that it wasn't covered as it had already been repaired! They accused me of repairing it myself, or that the previous owner had had it repaired. I explained that I'd bought it brand new and that the only other people that had any access to it was Evans Halshaw.
They said they'd look into it..... and I'm still waiting!

You need to get in touch with Trading Standards, they are guilty of false representation.

Good job you didn't have a bump or get pulled by the old bill, you would have not been insured or if applicable no mot do not let this bungling bunch of numpies off the hook, give them some pain, the've given it to you!

Not myself into any sort of revenge, claim blame, etc., anyone can make a mistake, if though this particular error could have caused quite a lot of sorting out for you..(and has already !)

What I think is really bad is that you have received no type of apology as yet. A bunch of flowers for your wife and free servicing to the car, say for the next three years, would not have gone amiss. Also, a big assurance that they had put in force better procedures to ensure this did not happen again. Genuine regret at the mistake in other words.

Sure you would have looked on the situation a little more forgiving then.

It's a good job they are not your 'doctors' or surgeons, simple miistakes can be costly and downright inconvenient.

Do cars in England have vehicle identification numbers (VIN)?

Re: Driving With False Registration Plates!!!!
 

Re: Driving With False Registration Plates!!!!
 

Does an owner or dealer not have to have the VIN on the registration ... does not the VIN have to match the plate?
