Chips are "Plant-based" no matter how you cook them

Really economical, nice drive, never missed a beat. Good amount of space in the back too.
If have had another but left it too late to order and the leading was too long so plumped for a used volvo in the end

So far, one has replied answering only one question, three haven't responded at all, one texted me to say they had emailed me a response (they haven't, and texting them back to tell them has elicited nothing) and my favourite: "yes sir thankyou for your enquiry" (and nothing else whatsoever!). I emailed that one back with "..and the answers to my questions are..??". Nothing.
You wouldn't think I was a customer with six grand in cash that I wanted to spend would you?
How the fuck can anyone run a company like that?

Me: "Hi. I'm interested in the Hyundai i40 you have for sale. Could you tell me what the detail of the service history is - is any of it main dealer and what are the details of the warranty you are offering?."
Them: "yes sir thankyou for your enquiry"
Me: "..and the answers to my questions are..??"
Them: "yes".
Okaaaaaaaay......

I've just ended an online chat with a salesperson from a well known chain of car dealers. He spelled "has" without the H, "log" with two Gs and ended with "was you wanting to view it this weekend?".
Turns out the car's last service was five years ago (but "we'll service it when it's sold").
Er.. no thanks mate. You'll probably need to chisel the old oil out of the sump.

If possible try to find one who has all 5-star reviews on Autotrader etc - they can't afford to mess you about or they lose that. Yes, you will certainly pay slightly more for the same car from a dealer like this - I'm still entirely happy with the ones we've bought that way.

Just reading through and disappointed to find out that my car looks like a slice of cake...

You are are looking for guarantees in a 5k motor which you are just not going to get.
Given how risk averse you seem in the thread I’d say get a 6 yr old Kia Ceed with 80k on it. It will still be under the 7yr/100k warranty so any major issues will not be major issues for you. Wife had one a while back and it was a solid motor.
Good luck.

I took this for a test drive the other day and I'm so tempted, it was immaculate for its age with full service history and drove well, but £450 - £600 insurance with no claims (have got 9 years but that's on my other car). Tax is also £300+ a year and if anything starts to go wrong it could end up a dear old do and regretting it.
It is a thing of real beauty.

What happened to basic common courtesy ?
I'm no business guru but - if they're selling cars in the mid-thousands range and they actually want to sell them, interacting professionally with potential customers might be a good starting point.
