Also you should know buying a car from a dealership : Garage often
sell you the warranty with the car and when it comes to a problem
with the car they say oooh it's not covered by the warranty, yet the
garage have a legal obligation within the sales of goods act to sell
the vechile in a state fit for purpose.

I got a garage by quoting all that - with the help of trading
standard. They use a warranty of a way of shirking their
responibilities.

I would advise against buying from a peugeot dealership I had a very
bad experience with them. They were very very nice when I was buying
the car but afterwards they just didn't want to know.

I would say buy privately, have a HPI check done RAC check and buy a
warranty yourself www.warrantydirect.co.uk do them. Save your self a
fortune.
