Well, I have some good news! The dealer said he had forgotten that it came off. When he looked for it, he found the strap with the stud still attached in his desk draw. He had it fixed by a local upholsterer. It was a five minute job. All is now well and I can enjoy my Giallo!

What exactly was the damage? Did the strap break or did the stud pull out? I'd like to tell my dealer that Motorline are doing this. That way I can prove that the repair can be carried out under warranty although they should have had it done before they sold it to me.

Won't mention their name until I hear whether they're willing to do anything.

The strap has disappeared and presumably took the stud with it as it has just left a tiny hole where it was.

That's interesting! Does the warranty cover upholstery?

Thanks to all you guys who offered advice. I'll wait a couple of days to see if they offer anything but I don't want my money back as I want the car. It's a special edition - one of only 86 produced. Also, I traded in my Hyundai Coupe and they've probably shifted that on by now so I couldn't get it back.and wouldn't have a car. I'll keep you all posted.

Hi I collected my lovely GT86 Giallo from the dealer yesterday. It is just under a year old and has been used both as a demo model and as the sales manager's own vehicle. When I inspected it, I saw no marks on the body work and nothing worn in the interior but then I did get in from the driver's side to take it for a test drive before agreeing to purchase. When I got home, however, I noticed that the seat belt shoulder guide was missing on the passenger side and that it had been wrenched out so that it had pulled out the fixing stud too, leaving a small hole in the leather. I could not possibly have seen this from where I sat in the driver's seat for the test drive and feel that the dealer should have brought it to my attention before handing over the vehicle. I know I bought it second hand but, when I rang the dealer, to report the matter less than two hours after driving away, he said he didn't think he could do anything for me. I have left him to investigate. It has totally ruined my excitement and pleasure at getting the vehicle as I feel cheated because the sales manager must have been aware of the damage and I feel he had a duty to point it out. He even tried to get me to take the car without the owner's handbook, which he had lost, but I persuaded him to let me have the one from a new GT86 that was sitting in the showroom. Has anyone else had a similar experience and do you know whether the pulled out stud is covered under warranty? I don't imagine the missing guide strap is covered so can these be purchased anywhere? I think the dealer must have felt he got away with it because I'm a 72 year old woman who won't make a fuss but I shall go to the top if I have to. I would really appreciate any help from fellow GT86 owners.
