I've got a facelift 308 GTi love the car but just spent £270 on fixing the headlight adjustment. To anyone looking at getting one, do so, yes there are issues like with any manufacturer, but get a good one and you'll have loads of fun
warranty not worth anything but if the car goes faulty in first 6 month they liable under consumer rights and its down to them to fix and prove it wasn't there on point of sale which we all know no one be able to prove so dealers/traders don't have a leg to stand on
What a nightmare for you 😳, glad it’s sorted! My GTI has had oil change, gear box oil change, new spark plugs, filters, Break fluid, tyres, new front break pads next week. Just need to sort out the pistons on the Alcons when poss. Been an amazing car for the last 3 years. 😀😎🔥👍🏻👊🏼
Oh wow, yours has had everything!! Tackling the brakes in the next video, already done the pistons. They’re incredible cars and i’m so glad I got to keep this one after all the fuss!! 😅
@@ianhartley6253 if car is less then 6 months bring up the consumer rights act law against the trader/dealer also if you not getting anywhere contact finance company if its under finance because they still own the car not you ive heard alot do this now when they getting fobbed off

Yep, thankfully it went well in my case but still a massive pain in the arse.
Now I am scared of getting this car with all this trouble you went through 😭
Make sure you’ve got a good warranty 🤪😂

What about the pistons you've both mentioned? can explain a bit more?
@AlanKempf I’ve got a whole video discussing this in full detail 😎
@@xiolage remember the title? I’ve seen quite a lot of your videos already 😌

Make sure the correct gearbox oil is in it!!
Yep, heard they’re quite sensitive. Also heard to change it every service.
Hello. So you did not recommend the car second hand without warranty?
hi mate, yep would recommend warranty!
I have a warranty which is useless, bought from a main dealer, they want £180 to diagnose any faults and then say it's not covered.
Some of these warranties aren't worth the paper they're written on. I got seriously lucky here.

Saw the title and thought the car was going/gone.
Thankfully it’s all sorted now, stress over. 😬
@@xiolage seems like about time it was looked after wicked car, cant wait for the journey
Finally getting the love it deserves. 🤩
