I am anxious to contact Thornton Cars having found the advertised telephone number is no longer in use.
I bought a Mazda 323F Sport from Thornton Cars last year which was missing the rear head restraints.
I was advised that these would be supplied but have never recieved them.
Further, the car had a rattle at the rear and i was advised that it was just an exhaust bracket. It turned out to be badly worn drop links for the rear anti roll bar.
That should have been spotted at the MOT before the car was sold.
Also missed at the MOT was corrosion around the offside front shock absorber mounting. This corrosion was visible from inside the engine compartment but when i showed concern about it at the show room, i was told by the salesman, 'it was ok because it was not structural'. Who told him that?
Apart from missing head restraints, the car was sold without a toolkit, wheel brace and a missing jack handle. read more
