Hi All

Yes the law would allow me a claim against the seller of the car but in the two and a half years I had the car the dealer went bankrupt and closed down .

I have posted on xdrivers.co.uk and have just had a guy offer me a copy of a 2004 model which should be close enough.

All I can think for the reason for the delay in finding it is that the other car is in a major oil city close to offshore rigs and that the genuine car has been off the road for a long time.

No the specs are different too.
