When I was a small boy my Dad had a Hudson Hornet, he had bought off an American officer who let him have it quite cheap. Dad used to scare the crap out of Mum, especial...

Paul, if the company are a UK based outfit, they are obliged to supply you goods fit for purpose, they must also supply that which they advertise, they cannot pass the buck.
