um yeah i didnt have a good experience with buying my altezza with this sham outfit. was told if anything within the first month of owning the car comes up, that they would fix the problems, well ha what a joke, i took it back the very next day as the clutch thrust bearing was squealing and they didnt want to know about it and then denyd that they even said that. Brad Grant is his name and hes a [f**k]n dodgy car shark just like his oldman michael. i was very dissapointed with these guys. but im a firm beleiver in karma, so what comes around, will eventually go around. id totally steer clear of buying a car from these guys if you are in palmerston north!! :angry: :angry: :angry:

They were dodgy thirty years ago. They used to be known as Grant-day motors

Awesome heads up! ... these guys remind me of the guys in Christchurch Moneymart which closed down .. i bought a forester from there .. after the second day the turbo wasnt going.. so i went back to see them n they said go n see one of the people from the list.. so i did that.. n not long after that.. i was idling so i went to people from the list coz there was no point n going back to moneymart.. their customer service was just so rediculiously sh*t .. they just dont want to help their own customers after scoring money off u ... :(:(:(:( (wankers) but they have shut down now which i guess was good for me...

After reading through all your posts, in future if anyone has any disputes regarding vehicle purchasing that have not been resolved during first month of purchase and the dealer is MTA registered, You have the ability to lodge a complaint against the dealer/sales representative through Motor Trade Association.

Quote - The MTA Promise - When a Customer uses an MTA Member, they can be assured of receiving high quality service - in fact all Members must sign up to the Association's Customer Promise and Code of Ethics. In the event of a disagreement, a Customer can use the MTA Mediation Service to help resolve the issue.

Heres the Link for future reference:

P.s. And no I dont work for MTA- I used to work in the Automotive/Finance Industry.
