Iliya Adams looks nothing like Ferris Bueller but he sure has a lot of similarities.

You may recall that movie when Ferris Bueller takes a day off school and convinces his friend Cameron to "borrow" his dad's expensive sports car.

They leave it in a car park and the attendants drive off.

The same thing happened to Mr Adams.

But unlike Ferris, he's not letting them get away with it.

Mr Adams had his Ferris Bueller moment when he left his expensive sports car at Aston Martin Trivett in Sydney for unscheduled repairs and soon after he bought it.

To Trivett's credit, they gave him a loan Aston Martin while the extensive repairs were underway.

But before he handed over his near $300,000 vehicle, he did a smart thing.

He took a photo of the odometer before catching a plane on a business trip.

But when Mr Adams got back, he was greeted by a much higher odometer reading.

“I couldn't believe it was my car and registration,” he said.

He was also slapped with toll fines – all while he was overseas.

So he rang Trivett and asked a Pauline Hanson question - "could you please explain?"

Then he asked what's on the odometer and found they had done between 250 and 300 kilometres.

“I couldn't believe they took it for a joy ride,” he said.

Mr Adams did some checking and rang other prestige car repairers to see if it was necessary to drive the car hundreds of kilometres.

He says they laughed.

He rang the boss of Trivett back.

Mr Adams’ lawyer, Stewart Levitt, sent off a letter to Trivett asking whether someone did "a Ferris Bueller" on his client’s car.

“We were told the police were going to back off and treat it as a civil matter which is what they should have done in the first place,” Mr Levitt said.

“They sold what appears to be a lemon to Mr Adams in the first place.”

Mr Adams’ says Trivett is telling him the car is repaired and ready to be picked up but he claims he's had other troubles with the vehicle.

But suggested a compromise on the loan car.

“I said I'll take this car and pay extra money and what did they say, they’ve said no.” Mr Adams said.

And so, for the last seven months he's had their loan car but he's only driven it 600 kilometres.
