BMW E46 330i

[Yuben]

Warranties can only be made compulsory by the financing bank, in order to safeguard the asset.
If u read and accepted the pre agreement, they got no grounds to force it onto you unless it was in the initial quote. You can take them to the cleaners imo

 

[Kish2604]

They have no balls to stand on... UnLess you signed for one in a pre agreement...:blab:

 

[Leon]

Nope,i signed for nothing
I accepted the qoute, but nothing about warranty

They claim that its to protect them against the consumers act! But in the ad for the car,they said it was optional!?

 

[Coisman]

Leon, hulle is besig om met jou mielie te speel!!
There is NO WAY they can make you sign or pay or take out a warantee that supposedly protects them from the consumer act!! That is TOTAL BS!!!!
Tell them you are going to get your attorney involved if they refuse to complete the deal, as they are now committing fraud by trying to force you to sign and pay for something you are not legally obligated to do!!

JIS WEET JY!!!!!! :argh:

 

[///Maniac]

I agree with Cois. Warranty is totally optional. Not even your finance house can force you into a warranty. You are even free to purchase a warranty elsewhere if you so desire. They just trying to score some extra commission from the warranty company. Trust me on this one.

 

[SuperFly]

So, slight problem

The garage refuse to let the car go without me taking out a warranty, which is an ekstra 10k, i refuse to pay this as this was never mentioned to me! they send me a quote that i accepted,and know this comes in afterwards
what is my options??

Seriously? What are those guys smoking?

 

[SP33DYV]

Leon, they taking you for a ride. Do not entertain their crap. They just trying to make more money off you. :nono:

 

[Leon]

So my option

I have a right to decline the warranty , but Audi has a right to decline the sale

 

[Philip Foglar]

You are buying a car, not a warranty! So no way should you be forced to take this! :thumbs:

 

[Bavs108]

Firstly what after market warranty costs 10k??? I have a motorite warranty which I took out on my car by choice through Wesbank and that was around R4k. As stated above they can't force you to take out a warranty. Don't let them take you for a ride. Do you have it in writing that you've accepted their quote? If so, show them that the warranty was not part of the initial agreement. And their story about complying with CPA is BS. Maybe print a copy of the act and ask them to show you where in the act it says that a warranty is compulsory in order to finalize the sale.

 

[Blue Shirt]

If the dealer plays hardball, walk away from the transaction. E46 330i's are are easy to find, let the dealer find another sucker who will buy the R10k warranty. I even bet for 10k, that warranty will barely cover the essentials and never a full engine rebuild or gearbox replacement.

Thanks for all the help

We came to a agreement, invoiced is paid, so it's officially mine!!:rollsmile:

Have been looking for awhile for a 330i 6 speed
And this one is basically brand new with 120k on the clock

Collecting tomorrow morning, will post a thread with pics ect.

Thanks for all the help guys!raise:raise:raise:raise:

Glad its sorted out. If I may ask, what was the final agreement reached?

 

[osiris]

My only worry with this kind of thing is that they sabotage the car in some way! When you go back to them they say but you wavered the opportunity to purchase a warranty, Thus they don't have to do shit to help you out.

Just be careful, check the car properly for anything fishy, dealerships can be real ass holes, ask spy007, he will tell you all about what dicks dealerships can be.

 

[AdiS]

They claim that its to protect them against the consumers act! But in the ad for the car,they said it was optional!?

Now that I think of this - that logic is retarded. By advertising those terms, as well as giving you a quote, implies that forcing you to buy a warranty means they already contravene the CPA.

Wankers.

Oh yea I see you basically said the same thing.

 

[Leon]

Hahahaha you guys are funny

They had the vehicle serviced yesterday, and i spoke to the service manager, he informed me the the vehicle is prestine!

I got a lower warranty option, and we went 50/50, which was not allot in the end, so i was happy with it

My girl is the only one who's allowed to play with mielies, seeing that shes from Bloemfontein!:rollsmile:
