bl00dy hope so, after all the BA hassles.

sorry, off-topic...
yeah bar a couple of small things it's fine.. streets ahead of the ba! and aside from them jacking it up in the wrong spot and crushing some of the metal underneath the car, (and not telling me, or attempting to fix) it's great ;p back to CRC for me!!

so yes apart from the idiocy of some.. the car is great thanks

OHHH, mate... you've gotta be kidding...

just tell me, how many times did you kick 'Sooty', the black cat, because you broke the mirror you were carrying when you had to walk under the ladder that was holding up the umbrella inside your house..??

Funny you should say that, I broke the rear view mirror in the BA by swinging the sun-visor back to its docking position too eagerly, it missed the catch, and struck the frame of the rear view mirror (not hard I might add) and the mirror glass cracked into a V shape! I'm not kidding either.... but that was AFTER all the problems occurred :

It wasnt your fault the car had dramas, and it isnt your fault if you decided to offload it because it was causing grief, who could blame you. You wouldn't be expected to spend $1000's on it just to make it better for the next owner if it was a trade-in. Technically speaking however, the dealer was the next owner!

It is the dealership's responsibility to comprehensively check the car out when they recieve a trade in and plan on selling it, they should be fixing any problems so that a)the car is right, and b) a good functioning car will get a sale more quickly
