To alleviate a little your pain Rick and to go into your own way, I may add that buying my 75 in September 2017 for 3,600€ (£3k +, used cars are not so cheap here in France & in Europe than in the UK), I easily added 2,500€ (£2k +) to cure all the niggles & gremlins and to get her back to her former glory (bodyshop, paint, shock absorbers, VIS motors, passenger mirror, alloys, steering wheel, GPS, lots of services, & minor injuries or deficiencies) and I did not complain to the seller because I'd freely accepted the deal and I've only one word.
And I should add that I did expect to open my purse for that and that now I'm delighted & over the moon by the result!
I feel sorry for you and I wish you all the best for the future: forget that lad if you can.
