Not sure about Porsche, but there certainly is with the supplying dealer.
Assuming you sorted the finance thing out...?

yeah, all was sorted with the finance that was on the car. When we mentioned to the dealer about the finance on the car he said 'how did u find that out'' unbeleivable,

We called the garage about the problems and he didnt want to know-just said go to Porsche, unbeleivable-

A few questions...

1. Did the car from from a Porsche dealer?
2. If not then what sort of dealer?
3. Did you get a Porsche dealer to do the 111 point check? Do you have paperwork?

You need to speak to the dealer who sold you the car - no comeback against Porsche.
