Reason for "second hand car salesman" stereotype - good place to go if you want to be f***ed over

This dealership made misrepresentations to me and sold me a lemon and naturally refuses to take responsibility.

They **** about the odometer reading on the car they sold me but that is the least offensive thing in the whole story.

Before I took possession of the car, they sent it to have the front bumper resprayed (at their insistence) due to an ugly scratch. The bumper was not refitted properly and was fixed on with wood *****s. There was a hole in the windscreen washer bottle which had been reported months before I bought the car but they of course did not disclose that, we later found a ***** in the washer bottle. I drove the car for 2.5 months before it broke down due to a cracked radiator which they insisted was due to "wear and tear" and refused to repair which of course left me with no choice but to repair it myself.

The mechanic who replaced the radiator discovered that the head gasket of the engine was also leaking which I then reported to Autocor. They sent the car for assessment to a workshop of their choice and they were told that the head gasket had indeed blown and after all of that they simply refused to take responsibility for the repair and referred me to dispute resolution bodies, no doubt because they know it takes several months to get any kind of outcome, all the while leaving me with a car I can't drive.
