I purchased a second-hand diesel Freelander from a trader in Melksham on 18th April 2009. It is a 2006/55 plate with approx 51k mileage when I bought it. I paid £7,795 and have done 3,000 miles since. I was told there was a 3-month warranty, which I have found out the trader failed to purchase. One week before the three months was up the gearbox failed leaving me with a repair bill of £1,200. Initially the trader failed to respond to my calls or e-mails and only after visiting them have they have offered me 50% of the repair cost. Is this reasonable? I feel that they should be liable for the entire cost of the repair.
