consistent with age and usage. The Buyer's statutory rights are not affected by these terms.

returned to the Seller's premises. In such circumstances: (i) The deposit may be retained to cover the Seller's

reasonable costs and losses incurred as a result of the failed delivery and vehicle reservation; and (ii) Any subsequent

delivery requested by the customer will be subject to an additional redelivery charge. The redelivery charge will be

13. PART EXCHANGE VEHICLE TERMS

The Seller may, at its discretion, agree to accept a customer's vehicle as part exchange towards the purchase of a

Outstanding finance or other encumbrances; (e) Mileage and service history; (f) Known faults, warning lights or

defects; and (g) Any circumstances that may materially affect the vehicle's value.

The valuation of the part exchange vehicle is based on the information provided by the customer and on any

inspection carried out by the Seller before completion of the transaction. If, following further inspection, appraisal,

diagnostic testing or receipt of the vehicle, the Seller discovers any material defect, major mechanical issue, structural

damage, adverse history, outstanding finance, mileage discrepancy, significant misdescription, or any other serious

issue that was not disclosed prior to the transaction and which materially affects the vehicle's value, the Seller

reserves the right to: (i) Revise the part exchange valuation to reflect the vehicle's actual condition and market value;

or (ii) Reject the part exchange vehicle entirely.

Where the Seller rejects the part exchange vehicle, the customer must pay the outstanding balance of the purchase

price for the vehicle supplied by the Seller. Such payment must be made within a reasonable period specified by the

Seller before ownership of the purchased vehicle can pass to the customer.

14. RETENTION OF TITLE

Legal ownership of the vehicle supplied by the Seller shall remain with the Seller until the full purchase price has been

received in cleared funds, including any amount that was originally intended to be satisfied through the part exchange

vehicle. Where a part exchange vehicle is rejected or its valuation is revised, any resulting balance owed by the

customer must be paid in full before title to the purchased vehicle passes to the customer.

Until full payment has been received: (a) The customer shall not sell, transfer, pledge, dispose of or create any charge

or security interest over the vehicle supplied by the Seller; and (b) The Seller reserves all rights available to it at law in

respect of unpaid sums and retention of title.

recorded on invoice and accepted as accurate to best of Seller's knowledge.

DVLA, HMRC, finance providers, and warranty administrators as required.
