User Car - I need an answer on my rights quick!

  • As it turns out, after speaking to trading standards, I have the right to two things.

    1) Either a sale at the agreed price, or my deposit back within 14 days

    2) Once deposit returned, if I find an item of exactly the same type and condition as the original, I can sue them for "Loss of Bargain". But finding a Black T-Res Ford Puma with the same amount of miles on the clock and the same condition of body work etc. would be a very unlikely event.

    I eventually talked him to 1100, he paid about 150 towards the MOT, was a lot of stress but the car is great.

    Just thought I'd update this in the unlikely event that someone finds themselves in the same situation. Thanks for all advice
