Faulty car sold by a trader

I did not sign the copy with the information added on by the trader, at the time I signed it justed stated the car details. However, I can not prove that the form had been amended cause it had all taken place at the garage of the trader.
He provided the document/invoice the following day in the envelope.
Due to buying the car from the garage I had trust in the individual as he stated he has made an image with good reviews from his customer feedback

So you didn't take a copy for your own records? Oh well, just follow the advice above and you might persuade the trader to make good, or you might win in court and then you might get paid. Unfortunately there are no guarantees though.

He can't sell you an unroadworthy vehicle and allow you to drive it away. So don't worry too much about the paperwork at this stage.

The fact that he has added these is in your favour.

No court is going to believe that a car sold at that value is a non runner etc.

This will be seen as an attempt to deny you your statutory rights. Which is a serious no no.

As you have been advised send a letter before action. Don’t send it recorded. Just get proof of postage from the Post Office.
