Dishonest and selling lemons

Minus 5 stars! Stay far far far away. And then run even further. I made the mistake of buying a vehicle there. From the dealership I went to Colonnade (like 2k away). When I got there I could not get out of the car. It kept locking. I had to climb over the seat and get out through the back doors opened manually. On the way back to the dealership about this the brakes on the vehicle locked up and I was stuck. I battled my way to the dealership where I was met with antagonism and rudeness. They oiled the brakes and blamed dust for this and lambasted me for driving in this manner (but I was stuck on Zambezi with a flat cellphone battery so what....I shouldve abandoned the car and walked???) I then mentioned the central locking problem. They claime to have fixed this, but 3 days later the same problem. I tried to return the car in the allowed 7 day cooling off period but Pieter ***ner) refused and told me I had caused the problems because of the brake issue. He also called me arrogant and aggressive and a few other choice words. When I told him that I saw what he had purchased the vehicle for due to a careless salesperson he became irate and told me the vehicle had been valet'd which costs money. (The vehicle was sold for DOUBLE what they paid. He then reiterated his opinion of me and dropped the phone in my ear and refused to take any further calls. 2 Weeks later the car broke down AGAIN and i ended up spending 25 000 on a new gearbox.
