CAT D CAR SALES

I knowingly purchased a Cat D car from Gary Thomas personally - the purported owner of Exclusive Car Sales - on 14 Oct 2015. I did so in good faith and paid in full in cash. Within 24 hours I discovered that the extent of the damage done to the car was far more substantial than he had disclosed to me.<br> I discovered this the next day when a horrendous noise began to rapidly become noticeable as a result of faulty workmanship done to a part of the car that had not been disclosed as being damaged. An independent MOT centre pointed this out to me along with other undisclosed damage and made the requisite repair to the incorrectly fitted part that had caused the noise. The other damage remains as a latent defect in the car. I am now in a battle with Gary Thomas for the full refund I feel entitled to demand.<br> What he did was contrary to the Sale of Goods Act (1979) and the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations (2008). He lied to me. The car was therefore not of the quality he had told me it was and that is simply neither right nor lawful.<br> Bottom line: DO NOT GO THERE!<br> [URL Removed]
