Advice needed please
hi guys i need a little advice
i recently px my mini privately for a mercedes which turned out to be a cloned car and police took the vehicle .
the police then opened a fraud case and put my mini on the pnc as stolen
2 weeks went by and yesterday i saw my mini for sale and informed west mids police of vehicles where abouts and presumed they would recover the car and it would be returned to me
west mids police went to the address and the seller who is a trader says he had px his car for the mini and was given cash as well and he did the deal in good faith , the police issued him with section 66 and told him he cannot dispose of the car.
the police are unsure if they have legal grounds to recover the vehicle
and have referred it to there legal team to decide
can anyone give me advice as to were i stand legally
any help would be appreciated as i am stressed to hell about this
and would like some advice
thanks in advance
