Hi, thanks! I think I'm going to call him tomorrow and outline the details of the case I am building, including all this information I have found. I'm hoping that he can be persuaded that all the information points to him being construed as a trader masquerading as a private seller who actually knew about the fault with the vehicle at the time of sale. Although conclusively proving as such may be difficult the more information that points to this likelihood the more likely a judge would rule in my favour on the balance of probabilities.

As he has stated he will not accept a return/refund, and as I require a vehicle to use, I will have to get the vehicle fixed and attempt to recover the costs of this through MCOL.

Thank you for your input, always nice to hear how other people view the facts presented

Have you given any consideration to how easy or otherwise it would be to enforce payment of a court award from the seller, assuming you win in court?
