Car buyer wants to return it after spraying it

annie42

My son sold a car on Ebay for £890. The buyer wants to to return it as she says the steering column and rack are faulty although it was inspected and test driven at the point of sale. My son, who sold the car in good faith having had no problem with car, has offered her a partial refund of £80 in full and final settlement but she wants a full refund. We don't believe she's entitled to a full refund because she has had part of the bodywork repainted since she bought it. Wondered what your thoughts are on this point?

Don't even offer them a partial refund... sold as seen.

Is it a mondeo by any chance?

Was it really dirty when the other person bought it? Did she collect at dusk and not notice the damage?

Too much of a coincidence for it not to be!

Did she bring Stevie Wonder with her when she collected?

Lol I spent a while finding the other thread, surely its not a coincidence.

Had you been rally driving in it by any chance?

Has this ever happened on MSE? Does any one know?

Its so much better than at work as we don't have to worry about conflict of interests...

He said, she said etc etc etc

I can't wait for Brooker Dave to find this thread, I might even pm him

To the op. It has been sold and how would you she hasnt done anymore damage.

I wouldnt give her a penny. She has test drove it so theres no coming back. She would be told the same by trading standards. Shes not got a leg to stand on. xx
