Buying A 2nd Hand Is250 (mk2) - Are Dealers Worth The Premium?

[mk_lon]

Finally got it sorted this morning from the independent garage I spoke about earlier (not the trader).

The garage was BMERCS in Barnet and I am so glad I went to them. They only charged me for 30mins and checked the car over to see everything was ok inc diagnostic. Just google the reviews they have got!!

Sorry to go about this but I have been to con men before and know the horrible sinking feeling you get when you realize you have been done.

Hi

Out of my experience I would say it depends on dealer to dealer, for such a premium class car, you can check dealers on recommendations and yes the good one's are worth it. Otherwise its on luck any car can go wrong its just you need to do some research on dealers before opting any. I had a reasonably good experience, you can compare your choice of car at http://varissa.com/ , this might help you.

It's fine, but I didn't experience a massive change in economy and performance as some of the posts suggested. I been using shell v power and have noticed a difference with that.
