[quote][i]Originally posted by Kyle T[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by --ToM--[/i] Scooby owners for you john :o [/quote] :o Have a friend, bought a Mk2 Focus RS when they were new and left it with Ford for them to do some work (service maybe, can't remember). He got the car back and it was "wobbling" on acceleration. Saw a friend the following day who made a comment along the lines of "bloody hell, you were flying down XXX road yesterday". This suggested the Ford garage were out blasting his car up and down at speeds quoted to be of "over 100mph", but of course no dash cam or evidence back then. The "wobbling" on acceleration ended up being a bent wheel and damage to the differential, presumably it whacked a kerb/pothole/something during the Ford dealer test drive. Again, no evidence - so he ended up trading the car in and washing his hands of it after numerous failed attempts to fix it. Worryingly I bet it's been a common occurrence in the past for dealerships to have "energetic" test drives in performance cars. Hopefully the dashcam revolution goes a long way to catching them out.
