You are right The X Man, HA does not give a shite that one of their dealers is selling their brand like that. When I called them up they actually asked me in return: what were you expecting from this phone call? Like, WTF?

To those following my story, I had given up the fight for my right to a refund/new car. I had everything going for me, even the Motor Traders Act 1974, section 24, part 7 but after working everything out, I will be the one at loss even if they gave me a full refund or a new car.

I had time constraints and monetary loses so in the end I just picked up my re-sprayed car TODAY and I'll just have to make the most of it.

My word of advice to other people out there buying their first new car: CHECK THE DAMN CAR ALL OVER BEFORE YOU SIGN ANYTHING, LET ALONE PAY FOR ANYTHING! IT'S GONNA BE YOUR DAMN CAR!
