makes sense to me.

I still dont understand how a contract can be formed deposits exchanged and the Dealer doesnt have to stand by it.

The customer is not allowed to make a mistake and cancel the deal but the dealer is !!!!

The customer can cancel a contract and get his deposit back.

But this isn't what the OP was told by the garage.

it states on the reciept if i change my mind no deposits are refundable.

It doesn't make any difference what the terms and conditions say on the order. Nearly all vehicle sales order follow the standard RMIF terms and conditions. But that doesn't mean they are correct.

All the dealer can retain are any provable losses/costs they might have incurred.

I know that, but so far we have a salesman who gives the wrong figure why pricing up a part ex car, and a garage who puts terms that are unenforceable and may be illegal on their paperwork.
It hardly instills confidence in them does it?

Even though the "no refund of deposit" may not be enforceable, I wonder how many people would think that it was correct and if changing their mind, would simply walk away.

In which case, one should never go to any dealer, anywhere, or at anytime. The terms and conditions are standard in all RMIF vehicle orders, which almost every dealer in the UK use. I am sure if the OP reads all the conditions on the order, he will find one that allows him to withdraw.

That may well be the case but that is not what the customer was told and In my experience the customer is never told that, and most honest people would think that if they changed their mind the deposit would be lost
