2. Terms & Conditions

2.1 These are the terms and conditions that apply to the exclusion of all others (including any verbal statement or representation) in respect of the 14-day Money-back Guarantee.

2.2 If the Vehicle is purchased at a distance within the meaning of The Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013, the Customer may within 14 days of Delivery cancel the contract and require the Supplying Dealership to refund the purchase Price. In this instance, the customer must keep the Vehicle in a reasonable condition and return the Vehicle or make it available for collection, pay the company’s reasonable costs of collection, where the Vehicle odometer records more than 250 miles travelled from the odometer reading at Delivery (as shown on the Invoice) the sum of £1 per mile over 250 miles, and the reasonable costs of any rectification works for damage caused to the Vehicle whilst in the Customer’s possession.

2.3 To be eligible for the 14-day Money-back Guarantee, the Vehicle must:

2.3.1 be returned to the Supplying Dealership within the Refund Period. For the purposes of this clause, the first day is the day that the Customer takes Delivery of the Vehicle;

2.3.2 not have covered a distance of more than 250 miles during the Refund Period. For the purposes of this clause the miles covered shall be calculated from the odometer reading at the point of Delivery;

2.3.3 be returned to the Supplying Dealership with all keys, accessories, vehicle records and documents (including the V5C log book document);

2.3.4 have been insured for the entire period the Vehicle was in the Customer’s possession;

2.4 To claim under the 14-day Money-back Guarantee within the Refund Period the Customer must:

2.4.1 notify the Supplying Dealership by email to providing their name, address, and Vehicle registration number; and

2.4.2 make and attend an appointment to return the Vehicle to the Supplying Dealership.

2.5 Upon return to the Supplying Dealership, the Vehicle will be inspected and the condition report agreed with the Customer. The Supplying Dealership shall be entitled to deduct from the refund of the Price, the reasonable costs of rectification of any damage caused to the Vehicle whilst the Vehicle was in the possession of the Customer and that the Supplying Dealership reasonably believes are required to restore the Vehicle to the retail standards applicable to the Vehicle.

2.6 The Supplying Dealership shall refund the Price including standard delivery costs (but excluding premium delivery costs requested by the Customer), less any sums required to settle any financial lien, charge or encumbrance or repair costs under Clause 2.5, to the Customer within 14 days of the Customer returning the Vehicle and those items listed in Clause 2.3.3 to the Supplying Dealership. The refund shall be paid in pounds sterling (£) via an electronic transfer to the Customer’s designated bank account or payment card from which the Price was paid. No repayment shall be made until the V5C log book document has been returned to the Supplying Dealership if the V5C log book document was not provided in accordance with clause 2.3.3.

2.7 Where part payment of the Price was made by way of part-exchange vehicle, the Supplying Dealer shall return the part-exchange vehicle as part of the refund of the Price unless works have been undertaken to the part-exchange vehicle in preparation for its sale or the Supplying Dealer has settled any finance agreement applicable to that part-exchange vehicle. In such circumstances, the Supplying Dealership shall reimburse the amount allowed for the part-exchange vehicle as set out on the Vehicle invoice net of the amount of any finance settlement paid by the Supplying Dealership.

2.8 A Customer, or any customer using the same address as the Customer, may only claim under this 14-day Money-back Guarantee once in a 12-month period commencing with the first claim.

2.9 The 14-day Money-back Guarantee is only available to retail consumers where the Price of the Vehicle is less than £75,000.

2.10 The 14-day Money-back Guarantee is not available for Vehicles that the Supplying Dealer offered for sale on behalf of a third party under a Sale or Return agreement.

2.11 The 14-day Money-back Guarantee is not available for Vehicles where a part-exchange vehicle provided as part payment of the purchase Price of the Vehicle was subject to outstanding finance greater than the Supplying Dealership’s valuation of that part-exchange vehicle.

2.12 The Company reserves the right to vary the terms and conditions of 14-day Money-back Guarantee at any time. In the event of any dispute as to the interpretation of these terms and conditions, the application of the same or otherwise, the decision of the Supplying Dealership shall be final.
