Should I cancel the contract.

Today was supposed to be a happy day for me... I signed a contract on a demonstrator BMW E61 530i M sport Wagon in carbon black, dakota leather, 19 inch rims, a beautiful car done only 2500kms. 3 months old.

Thing is that the sales person told my wife and I that TV was optioned and that the road tax for this car was stil valid for six months, I made my offer based on this as part of the overall criteria. When I asked to see th vehicle, he was most reluctant to show it to me, and so we just looked at it form the outside and went back to the show room to negotiate the price etc... so after signing the contract, we insist on seeing the car and to our great disappointment.there was not TV option. At this point my wife is pretty upset because of two things. 1. no TV and second 2. only one month road tax left.

The sales person did apologise and say that it was his mistake, but when we asked how he was going to rememdy the mistake, he basically said, it is still a good deal anyway and you don't need the TV. He was very flippant about the whole thing and even when we pushed for some rectification, he said, if you are not happy, there is nothing I can do and we can go upstairs to tear up the contract.

We are upset also because the previous day, we had passed up a great deal in Melbourne on another wagon which was more highly specced and about $15K cheaper just to do the deal in Adelaide. Now I am not very happy. What do you think? I still have not paid the deposit.

I would say pay what u think is right! Coz u are going to live with it. Dunt buy already still got the cheated feeling. For me, i rather not buy it. Buy to give u happiness n sorrows.

Cheers...

Re: Should I cancel the contract.

its not about the deal... i just hate dishonest people... i would rather cancel the contract rather than having mental burden of anymore doubts on the car..

Re: Should I cancel the contract.

I really don't know whether to laugh or to cry... how many times can an organisation representing BMW drop the ball?

Today I called the parts department to see what their retrofit DVD/TV system is like. The parts guy told me that I could only get monitors fitted to the rear of the front seat head rests.. when I enquired as to whether I could get a monitor up front, the parts guy said to me what do you need a TV up front for isn't that what your lounge is for?

I really now don't know what to think about this. Canceling the contract will be too easy for them now. I now want them to feel some pain!!!!grrrr.. they need to be taught a lesson!:furious: :angry: :evil:
