Value
I paid £6,500. Been told that was good...?

Had it 2 days and it wont move! Can only drive it in 4 wheel drive. About to take it to garage... costs, costs, costs! I'm dreading it. Hope it's covered by warranty?

Immobiliser and alarm. Problems with key fob.
Service
Broke down in Welsh mountains, phoned garage I bought it from, gave little help. Phoned them again and they hung up on me then didn't answer the phone! A case of: it's your car now, not our problem...
