Well why complain,go to your accountant or solicitor,and get a letter
drafted,with all your expenses,loss of earnings,bus journeys,everything
you can think off.
Costs to include accountant/solicitor payments.
Then hand back the Cab,and get yourself a dublo.

Good luck,from DOOOOOOBLO Man

Dare I ask....

in the spirit of helpfulness could I ask if you knew what they were like and seem to know the company inside out why did you deal with them.

Tomorow morning I am booked on a train to go to cab direct to order and pay a deposit on 2 euro sevens and 2 euro busses, I have just decided I am not going.

after reading this thread I just darent. back to the bloody drawing board

I don`t know about the vast majority who own a euro 7, but I felt shafted by the company, when I decided to change my vehicle two weeks before the E7 came out, no one said hang on, we have a better version coming out,no, they proberly had thousands left and wanted shot of them, so I got stung, obvious what my reaction was, but did they care, not a jot.

Aitch,have heard of a few leaks and bad finishing on both the E7 @
the Euro Bus.
These vehicles seem to be selling well in Scotland.
Dundee area seem to be buying them at an enormous rate,as the list has
opened for people who wish to put on a WAV.
Wonder if any of these guys are having problems.
Heard one E7 operator,had one taken back to Glasgow for body work
repairs,due to shoddy workmanship.
Maybe hear from the Dundee lads.

Be happy,like,DOOOOOBLO MAN.

Be interested to see if Watchdog is interested,but C>D> will have to get their act together quickly or they will start to feel the pinch and instead of
expanding,will end up like metrocab.
