There is no "office". Small claims are launched online - https://www.gov.uk/make-money-claim
Let's just say that there's a faint whiff of cattle about this.
Sit back, don't reply, and just let her get bored.2 -

If someone is nice to you but rude to the waiter, they are not a nice person.1 -
Just make sure that when you order Penne Arrabiata that you take care to pronounce both 'n' s in Penne. Otherwise you will be asking for angry p****s

When I holidayed in Genoa (friend's sister lived there) at the age of about 13, I was warned not to confuse the town name Chiavari down the coast with the verb chiavare, which is apparently extremely rude.If someone is nice to you but rude to the waiter, they are not a nice person.0

You have fewer rights when a second-hand car is bought privately than from a dealer because important elements of the Consumer Rights Act 2015 don’t apply to privately sold cars.
This means there is NO LEGAL REQUIREMENT for the car to be of satisfactory quality or fit for purpose
However, contractual rules about misrepresentation do apply. So, as the seller you must accurately describe the car and not tell the buyer something about it that isn’t true, such as saying it has full service history when it hasn’t or is in excellent condition if it’s only just scraped through its MOT test with a long list of advisory work. The car also has to be in a roadworthy condition and you must have the right to sell it.
