Fish Motors, Bolton

I must tell everyone about the car i purchased last year around october, what I am about to say has played on my mind since last year and so i have to tell you the experience i had. I found this company on the web and as i came from the surrounding area i thought i would give it a try. So i found a car i liked the look of (it was not on the forecourt but in the compound), i asked the price and was told it was £2700 , i asked for a bit of leeway on the price but sadly not forthcoming, now this is where it gets interesting i paid a bank transfer of a £1000 and as i had to go back south at the time said i would be back in october with the £1700 in cash which i was asked to do, the car was sold to me as a "trade sale" unfortunately that was a big mistake, " trade sale" means you get no warranty when it leaves the garage anyway i did a bank transfer of £1000 and like a fool £1700 in cash, I managed to get the car home 350 miles, it needed a new clutch, discs and pads front and back, i had to replace the dpf filter £600 , and the car is at last o.k My reason for writing this is to make people aware of buying or being asked if the purchase can be a trade sale , so my other question is £1000 bank transfer and then asked for the rest in cash. I suppose it was my fault for buying it with no warranty or guarantee and not having the car checked by the AA. I would have thought that a trade sale at £2700 would have received a discount does that mean the car was actually only worth a £1000. ?? I feel better now that is off my chest.
