hi
I just bought 2007 megane gt2cdi, but I think I have bought a lemon.the guy assured me it was regularly serviced but it was very difficult to see stuff under the bonnet. all the signs were that it had not been touched for years. took it for an mot and it failed on lower wish bones-it has a few other problems but I hope to get it up to scratch and enjoy it

Did you get a receipt? or did you have anyone with you when you when he said it was serviced regularly?

Did he give any paperwork to prove servicing?

hi.
thanks for your reply. no I didn't do any of the right things. I am an honest trusting soul, and I guess I like to believe everyone else is as well-perhaps I am a bit naïve.
