3 weeks ago a friend of a friend ordered an M4 which was in stock.
Delivery was to be Thursday 15th Nov so on the 14th he changed his insurance already transferred his reg no. Wednesday afternoon he gets a call telling him car was being looked at & water was leaking but they would get back to him.
Radiator, waterpump???? ................not quite - flaw in the engine block meant it needed a serious repair. On finding this out he decided to ask for another car as he was unhappy that the car would be 6 weeks or so for a repair and in his words "not a new car". Garage #1 say he has to take it as it is registered in his name - he had many calls from the supplying dealer telling him another car could take 6 months to supply.
Angered he approached another BMW garage #2 a few miles away - they did not have one or have one on order BUT they could ask Garage #1 for one of the 2 they had not fully specified but were due for delivery in 6/8 weeks time.
Armed with this he went back to garage #1 with his new information & pointed out the sharp practice & lies .............the saga still runs on. Buying on Finance but he had not signed the Finance Paperwork as he would do that when picking up the car.
What would you do?
