Last Tuesday the 7th, i put a deposit of £200 down on a 52 plate Micra. The car is a crash-repair. It didn't have a bad smash, the only damage was a new bumper, headlight and airbag. I have phoned the car garage every other day to see when i can pick up the car, and the only answer i got was "we are still waiting for the airbag". well i thought, it doesn't take over a week to get an airbag and fit it. So i decided to phone the garage again today, and the answer was different to the previous answers that i got. "we are having a few problems finding an airbag, a brand new one is going to cost £400 and we don't want to pay that because there will be no profit left for us in the car, so we might have to refund your deposit".
Where do i stand with this? i have put down a deposit, so surely they have to repair the car at any cost, and sell it to me at the price agreed of £2500, otherwise they shouldn't of sold the car to me in the first place if it was going to cost to much to repair.
