He was a bit vague on what the result might be but said we should at least all be able to get the SHIV purchase price back from UBI and maybe a bit more, plus they would have to foot the bill of the class action suit.

Legally speaking and according to spanish laws (Which I know quite well and are more or less similar to other EU countries in consumer's matters), in case of receiving a faulty product you can choose between: 1) Demanding the creator of it to correct it, or 2) Getting your money back plus resulting damage costs (If any). Yet if the creator doesn't want to correct faults or can't do it (If that's your option) and noone can fix it except him, you only have right to a compensation and your money back.
I'm only certain about one thing: When it comes to suing in the courts, lawyers always win. They will get their money no matter if you win or lose.
(Not that I mean you friend was trying to get customers! I just point out that for the rest of people involved, winning or losing is uncertain)
So at best suing will make a lawyer happy and get your money back. You will still not have a working SH4, and any remote chance of UBI fixing it or a future SH5 will dissapear.
