Gordon, you must be ‘annoyed’ and very disappointed. In my view you’ve done the right thing in not taking a car which isn’t what you want from a dealer who isn’t being honest with you. We did similar to that in April 2019 and we have regretted it! Living on a Scottish island I really do know about how much time looking at cars and trying them out takes. To put all that time in and to arrive at a final decision and then to be messed around really is no fun.
There are good dealers out there – we had 2 of our previous vehicles from the same dealer and found them really helpful, honest and professional. We will be changing our current vehicle early but this time we will take our time and try not to be ‘bounced’ into it.
