For a start, is it being sold as a road worthy vehicle? If so a car that will not open and closed doors properly is not road worthy, therefore the items is not in it's advertised condition.

They definately need to advertise it as a repairable right off or a damaged vehicle.
Are we sure that it wasnt advertised like that online??
They dont need to sell cars roadworthy as they sell them un-registered, but its very buyer beware.
I used to buy cars online for a client from Sydney and Melbourne from Pickles sight unseen and we never had a drama, these were 2 year old Fairlanes tho, bought a heap of them at the time and they always had inspection reports online which matched up to what we got when we received them.
