Hello together, so the following situation: Despite Corona and mostly digital studies, I need a car to be mobile for work. So far, I had a very old polo, which gave up the spirit a few weeks ago. After my workshop of trust advised me not to put more money into it (coupling defective), I went looking for a new mobile kit. The budget was about 1500€ for the purchase. As I knew that it would be I didn’t think it would be difficult for you to get anything useful in the price range, but rather to stay under it, and then, if necessary, wear repairs etc., what people who sell cars in the price range would like to do. Further criteria: – as new as possible TÜV – likes from 75 hp – Equipment completely no matter, optics as well — should just drive and give the impression in the To be able to take me from A to B for a while I had picked out several candidates and then looked at a Saab 900. The car had just fresh TÜV and made a solid impression. The price called was 950€. Since my knowledge of cars was limited, I made an appointment directly at a workshop nearby and arranged a used car check there. I explained that I am layman and need an assessment. The mechanic checked the car thoroughly on site (at least I thought that, later on, more about it) and also found a few defects, which were not serious, or no dealbreakers. These were all easily repairable things, for which I had also provided extra air in the budget. There were among other things a loose heat shield, 2 small not rusted rust spots. On the underfloor, old tyres and slight oil loss on the ignition distributor. The mechanic asked me what the price concept of the seller looked like (950€) and recommended me to try to trade the seller down to 850€. The car was still solid and for its age (Ez 12/96) and Km stand (about 300,000) in good condition. Since my impression was also positive, I accepted the recommendation and was able to convince the seller of 850€. The location was about an hour away from home. A few days later I had re-registered the car and presented it to my main workshop to discuss the costs for the removal of the above mentioned defects. In addition to the above mentioned defects, the workshop master noticed two other serious defects. The shock absorbers at the rear left and right are rusty. In his opinion, the car should never have received a new HU badge. Whether they could still work there, he could not tell me yet. If one had to weld in new holms, the costs would be at 1500€ or more due to the lack of suitable repair plates, which therefore still have to be made, as well as the associated working time. So sometimes almost twice the purchase price. I have al I don’t have much more possibilities, because unfortunately I don’t know anyone who knows much better than I do. Looking back, of course, I could have explored the model on the Internet before to find out this seemingly known flaw, no question. That was definitely my fault and I didn’t think about it. I just thought I could look at the assessment. It was clear to me that the TÜV did not check whether the car had regularly received its oil changes. But safety-relevant defects such as rusted Holme should have been recognized by the TÜV and thus had to protect me from a purchase. Now I don’t know what to do. Can you take the dekra into regress for it? Probably not, right? Retreat the purchase contract (from private)? Probably not, because I would have to be able to prove that the seller had lost the defect w What I can’t do. I can’t put 1500€ in either. What would you advise me to do?
