    There was a case in the last few years similar to this which went to court.

    Car was on forecourt with a price displayed, someone showed up and paid whoever was manning the shop the displayed price, was given a receipt and the keys and drove away.

    Turned out one of the numbers had fallen off the windscreen and price should have been 10 times what was paid.

    Buyer ignored dealer's demands for further payments so dealer took it to court.

    Judge held that buyer had bought in good faith at the displayed price and threw out dealer's claim.

    Don't have the time to look for references to it now but if you find it it could help your case.

    Sorry, but I call complete BS on that. Unless the car was £50!

    The car was found online. I paid via card at the showroom when the car was collected.

    No, no you didn't. At least if you are going to attempt to troll, make it slightly believable.

    And the nice salesman took your card payment for £2,999 and smiled as you drove off in a car worth 29,999.:rotfl:
