Faulty Van Returned

If this isn't a B2B sale. you have 30 days from the date of purchase to reject it under CRA 2015: you may well now be approaching that deadline, so to cover yourself I would reject it in writing without further delay. A verbal rejection is insufficient, as you will be unable to prove later that you actually did reject it.
I suspect that it does come under B2B, but you have nothing to lose by doing this anyway, and everything to gain.

Are you a sole trader? (e.g. AN Other Trading As AN Other Roofing)

Historical error codes sitting on the ECU with no external indication mean nothing.

Again. If the fault is no longer present, In most modern cars X amount of fault clear restarts will clear the EML and associated error lights.

It's a business purchase, sorry but there really isn't any doubt about that. As such you are bound by the contract you signed.


The finance co can't help either because you have no S75 rights as a business.


I don't see the problem anyway, they will fix it and all will be well in the world again.

That's incorrect.
Section 75 applies to some businesses.
This is because the exact wording of S75 refers to a debtor receiving credit and as far as S75 is concerned, a debtor can be a single private person, a sole trader or a company set up as a partnership but which is not a registered company.
