Landini 8865 excessive oil use after warranty rep

I bought this tractor brand new from this dealer but after 750 hours of working, the engine developed a knocking noise. After examination by the dealer it was found that one of the gudgeonpins on one of the pistons was not fitted with a circlip (factory error). The dealer overhauled the engine under the warranty after which the tractor started using about 200 ml of oil for every 8 hours running. Before the repairs the engine was not using any oil in a service inteval which consists of 250 hours. After much communication and arguing, the dealer told me that they wont be giving the matter any further attention and that no attempt will be made to restore my tractor to the state it was in before they had their fingers on it.
