My mother just purchased a V40 under the Selekt scheme from a dealer in Hampshire. The MOT had an advisory on one tyre - they said it would be looked at under the selekt criteria.
Once the deal had been agreed to purchase the car they called to say that not only would the tyre be replaced, but delivery of the V40 would be delayed as they needed to replace an alloy wheel as well. That would seem to be the correct approach to this premium scheme for used Volvos. |

While still legal, a tyre is effectively scrap at 3mm as they cease to tread water at that point.
If the seller is going to let the car out the door with only 1mm of useful life left in the boots I would wave adios and buy elsewhere. Seems an easy decision to me - it's not as if there's a shortage of cars to buy at that piece level, so why waste ypur breath on them?

After purchasing it and paying for it they placed it through a service and identified that it required new front discs and pads. They did this at the dealership and I had the full year breakdown recovery etc extended. And that was non selekt. |
