STAY CLEAR OF FG Cars!!!
STAY CLEAR OF FG Cars!!!
Initially I thought FG were a great company, spent time working with me and my partner's father (mechanic), allowed my partners father to test drive the car on my behalf which was signed off as mechanically sound, no ramp check had been done. However, when the day came to buy the car, the car had been registered as disabled, so had no VED.
I was told to go to the nearest Post Office, (which as a non-Loughborough-local, I didn't know where it was) to pay the VED and bring it into my ownership. Granted, this was explained to me, but would've been better customer service to have done this on my behalf, or even offered to drive me there.
Taking ownership of the car was fine, papers signed, key (1 key) handed over and away I went.
I took the car to my local mechanic who knew this was my first car, who after initial inspection, he put the car on a ramp, only to find the rear disc calliper seized open, and the passenger side front drive spring had snapped.
I phoned FG to infor
