Re: second hand car issue
sure... here it is
On 6th May, 2013 I purchased, and took delivery of, the above vehicle, Audi A3 from you. Three days after the purchase I realised there was a possible fault with the car, other than the one that was described to me prior to agreeing to buy the car (the starter motor) On 14th May, I discovered that it was not of satisfactory quality following a review of the car by a local garage. They confirmed the car had a faulty gearbox and gave a quote to repair and/or replace. You also later confirmed this fault following your own review of the car on 17th May.
Section 14 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 requires dealers to supply goods of satisfactory quality. However, the vehicle is clearly unroadworthy. You are therefore in breach of contract.
I am legally entitled to reject the vehicle and to be reimbursed for its full purchase price of £1,600. I look forward to receiving your cheque for this sum within 14 days from the recorded date on which the letter was received. If this is not forthcoming within that period I will initiate a charge-back of the sum paid by Debit Card (£1,100) and commence a claim for the remainder outstanding (£500) and costs associated with its recovery, without any further notice.
Yours sincerely,
