2. How the Contract is formed between you and us
2.1 When you make an offer to purchase a vehicle through our Site, by email or over the telephone ("Vehicle") for the Price, you are placing an "Order" with us for the purchase of the Vehicle, which is subject to these Terms.
2.2 We will confirm in writing that we accept your Order ("Order Confirmation"). Please note that any other communication from us, including any verbal communication, is only an acknowledgement and not an acceptance of your Order.
2.3 These Terms and Conditions will become binding on you when:
(a) we confirm in writing that we have accepted your Order;
(b) you make payment of the Price to us; or
(c) we commence processing of the Order;
whichever is the earlier, at which point a "Contract" shall come into existence between you and us.
2.4 Any Order placed by you is subject to acceptance by us. We may choose not to accept or to decline your Order for any reason and will not be liable to you or to anyone else in those circumstances.
2.5 If we are unable to provide the Vehicle, for example because it is no longer in stock, no longer available, because of a fault or defect which we have identified or because we have identified it will not meet any specific requirement such as those described in Condition 8.1 which you have given us, we will inform you of this and we will not process your Order. If you have already paid for the Vehicle, we will refund you the full amount you have paid including any additional costs charged as soon as possible.
3. Price of Vehicle and additional charges
3.1 The price of the Vehicle will be as set out on our Site or otherwise notified to you in writing in the Order Confirmation ("Price"). We take all reasonable care to ensure that the Price is correct at the time of your Order. However please see Condition 3.9 for what happens if we discover an error with the Price.
3.2 Where applicable and noted on the Order, the Price includes a deposit, the level of which is set out in the Order Confirmation ("Deposit"). This does not include the cost of any vehicle tax, where this will be applicable to the Vehicle. You will be required to pay vehicle tax with the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency at the point of collection or delivery, which we will assist you with.
3.3 Where applicable, you will need to pay the Deposit when you place your Order for the Vehicle. We cannot process your Order until we have received the Deposit in full cleared funds. The Deposit can be paid by debit or credit card, cash (provided the amount is below any threshold we may set or be obliged to comply with from time to time) or electronic transfer where agreed in advance.
3.4 If you decide not to purchase the Vehicle or the Contract is cancelled for any reason and where you have paid a Deposit, we will refund you the Deposit in the same way that it was paid within 7 days of you informing us of your decision. Where you purchase the Vehicle the Deposit will form part of the Price.
3.5 Where we have agreed to deliver the Vehicle to you, the location for delivery and any additional charges associated with delivering the Vehicle to you will be set out within the Order Confirmation.
3.6 Where you are purchasing a Vehicle through our Site, by email or over the telephone, we may charge you an administration fee in order to cover the costs we will incur in providing the purchase documentation electronically and facilitating electronic completion of the purchase. Any administration fee under this Condition 3.6 will be set out within the Order Confirmation.
3.7 If you make payment of the Price or the Deposit by credit card, in certain circumstances we may charge you a reasonable administration fee in order to cover the costs we will incur processing your payment. We will tell you before you make any payment if we intend to charge an administration fee in relation to your payment and confirm the amount of the administration fee in writing.
3.8 The Price includes VAT (where applicable) at the applicable current rate chargeable in the United Kingdom for the time being. However, if the rate of VAT changes between the date of your Order and the date of collection, we will adjust the VAT you pay, unless you have already paid for the Vehicle in full before the change in VAT takes effect.
3.9 Prices for our Vehicles may change from time to time, but, other than where identified in Condition 3.10, changes will not affect any Order that you have already placed.
3.10 It is possible that, despite our reasonable efforts, the Price for the Vehicle given on our Site, by email or quoted over the telephone may be incorrect. In the event that we have advertised the Vehicle at the wrong Price we will ask you whether you wish to proceed at the correct Price. If you agree to proceed at the correct Price we will refund you or charge you the difference between any amount you have paid and the correct Price. If you are not happy to proceed, or we are unable to obtain your instructions, we will cancel the Contract and refund you any amount you have already paid.
4. Payment
4.1 The Price, less the Deposit, where you have paid one in accordance with Condition 3.3, can be paid by either credit or debit card, cash (provided the amount is below any threshold we may set or be obliged to comply with from time to time) or electronic transfer where we have agreed to this in advance, or through the means set out in a separate finance agreement that you have signed and which we have agreed to allow you to use in order to pay the Price.
4.2 Where we have agreed in writing in advance, you may pay part or all of the Price by providing us with another vehicle as a part-exchange. Please see Condition 5 for what happens if you would like to make a part-exchange.
4.3 Unless otherwise stated in the Order Confirmation or any finance agreement which you have entered and we have accepted as your means of payment, payment of the Price is due when you collect the Vehicle from our premises or at the point that we are ready to deliver the Vehicle to you ("Due Date").
4.4 If you do not make payment to us by the Due Date, we may:
(a) not allow you to collect the Vehicle or suspend any delivery until we have received payment of the Price and any delivery costs, where applicable, in cleared funds and charge you for our costs in accordance with Condition 6.5; or
(b) charge you interest on the Price at the rate of 2% above the base lending rate of Bank of England from time to time. Where we charge you interest this shall accrue on a daily basis from the Due Date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgement; or
(c) terminate the Contract to sell you the Vehicle immediately in accordance with Condition 12 by giving you written notice. 4.5 Where you are using a credit or debit card to pay any part of the Price or the Deposit, you warrant that the credit or debit card is owned by you. If you use a credit or debit card that you do not own, we may terminate our Contract with you by giving you written notice.
5. Part-Exchange
5.1 You must notify us in advance if you have a vehicle you wish to part-exchange ("PartExchange Vehicle") and provide us with any information regarding the PartExchange Vehicle which we may reasonably request, and, where requested by us, bring the Part-Exchange Vehicle to our showroom at a time which is convenient to us in order for us to examine it.
5.2 If we agree to consider your Part-Exchange Vehicle, we will examine it at a preagreed time and provide you with a valuation or, where it is not possible to examine it in advance of any part-exchange, provide you with a valuation based on the information you have provided. We are not obliged to provide a part-exchange option when selling the Vehicle and our decision to examine or value a Part-Exchange Vehicle, including the valuation we give, is solely at our discretion.
5.3 If we are willing to accept a Part-Exchange Vehicle as part of the Price we will provide you with a valuation for the Part-Exchange Vehicle ("Part-Exchange Valuation").
5.4 You have no obligation to accept any Part-Exchange Valuation and can change your mind about a part-exchange at any point until you deliver the Part-Exchange Vehicle to us and collect or take delivery of the Vehicle as long as you notify us of your decision.
5.5 Where you wish to accept the Part-Exchange Valuation we have provided and wish to continue with the part-exchange you must notify us in writing and at that point we will recalculate the Price to take into account the Part-Exchange Valuation in exchange for you transferring the Part-Exchange Vehicle and ownership of the Part-Exchange Vehicle to us.
5.6 Where there is outstanding finance owed in relation to a Part-Exchange Vehicle, at our discretion and subject to agreement with the relevant third party financier, we may offer to settle such outstanding amount on your behalf. Where we agree to settle this amount this may result in there being a shortfall due to us which we shall either recover from you as an Additional Charge or by way of an adjustment to the PartExchange Valuation. Where settlement results in an excess amount due to you we will provide you with a revised Part-Exchange Valuation to reflect this or pay such excess to you directly by way of electronic transfer, as agreed by us with you.
5.7 Unless you have notified us that you will not be part-exchanging the Part-Exchange Vehicle, you will not be able to collect the Vehicle or request that we deliver the Vehicle to you until you have delivered the Part-Exchange Vehicle to us.
5.8 We will examine the Part-Exchange Vehicle within 72 hours of you delivering it to us and, where the Part-Exchange Vehicle is not in the same condition as it was described as being in by you, we may provide you with a revised Part-Exchange Valuation or reject the Part-Exchange Vehicle. In the event that we provide a revised Part-Exchange Valuation or reject the Part-Exchange Vehicle we will notify you of this in writing and ask you whether you wish to proceed at the revised Price taking into account the revised Part-Exchange Valuation or rejection of the Part-Exchange Vehicle. If you agree to proceed at the revised Price we will refund you or charge you the difference between any amount you have paid and the revised Price. If you are not happy to proceed, or we are unable to obtain your instructions, we will cancel the Contract and refund you any amount you have already paid within 7 days of you returning the Vehicle to us.
5.9 For the avoidance of doubt we are entitled to reject a Part-Exchange Vehicle which is delivered to us for any reason, including but not limited to circumstances where:
(a) the condition of the Part-Exchange Vehicle has changed since we provided the Part-Exchange Valuation;
(b) the Part-Exchange Vehicle or the condition of the Part-Exchange Vehicle is not as stated in the description given by you;
(c) there is a discrepancy in the recorded mileage of the Part-Exchange Vehicle;
(d) the Part-Exchange Vehicle has been subject to a total loss claim;
(e) any other issue is identified by a HPI check or equivalent vehicle history check on the Part-Exchange Vehicle;
(f) the Part-Exchange Vehicle is not your property to dispose of or you do not have the right to sell it;
(g) the V5 registration documentation for the Part-Exchange Vehicle is missing, incomplete or is not in your name; or
(h) the Part-Exchange Vehicle is subject to an outstanding finance agreement or one where there is no evidence of a settlement letter.
5.10 In the event that we reject a Part-Exchange Vehicle in accordance with Condition 5.8 above we are entitled at our option to:
(a) reject the Part-Exchange Vehicle entirely and require payment of the Price by another means; or
(b) provide a new Part-Exchange Valuation in relation to the Part-Exchange Vehicle.
5.11 When delivering a Part-Exchange Vehicle to us you must provide:
(a) all sets of keys to the Part-Exchange Vehicle; and
(b) the V5 registration documentation in your name and any associated documentation (such as service books) for the Part-Exchange Vehicle;
without which we will not accept the Part-Exchange Vehicle.
5.12 If you do not deliver the items set out in Condition 5.11 when delivering a PartExchange Vehicle to us, we may at our discretion reduce the amount of the PartExchange Valuation until the items set out in Condition 5.11 are delivered (the "Withheld Part-Exchange Sum") and on delivery of the Part-Exchange Vehicle we will confirm the reduced Part-Exchange Valuation. If you provide the items set out in Condition 5.11 we shall credit the Withheld Part-Exchange Sum against the outstanding amount of the Price or, where the Price has been fully paid, by refunding the amount of the Withheld Part-Exchange Sum to you within 7 days of receipt of the items set out in Condition 5.11.
5.13 You acknowledge and agree that if the Contract is cancelled or terminated, or if you reject the Vehicle and we agree to provide you with a refund, we may at our discretion either return the Part-Exchange Vehicle to you or refund you the amount of the Part-Exchange Valuation agreed in accordance with Condition 5.8.
6. Collection or Delivery
6.1 The Vehicle will be stored at our showroom and we will contact you once the Vehicle is ready for collection or delivery. If we have agreed that we will deliver the Vehicle to you, we will deliver the Vehicle to you at the location agreed by you and us and set out in the Order Confirmation.
6.2 Collection or delivery of the Vehicle shall be completed once you have signed our pro-forma invoice, or other such written confirmation as we may require from time to time, and we have received payment of the Price and any delivery costs (where applicable) in cleared funds, including delivery of any Part-Exchange Vehicle we have agreed to accept as part payment of the Price in accordance with Condition 5, to confirm your acceptance of the Vehicle.
6.3 Subject to any finance agreement that you may have in place, ownership of the Vehicle and the right to collect it, or have it delivered, will pass to you once we have received payment of the Price and any delivery or administrative costs (where applicable) in cleared funds and have accepted delivery of any Part-Exchange Vehicle we have agreed to accept as part payment of the Price. We own the Vehicle until payment of the Price (including any amounts to be paid under a finance agreement) and any delivery costs (where applicable) have been made in full and you take delivery of the Vehicle either at our showroom or at the location set out in the Order Confirmation where we have agreed to deliver to you.
6.4 If you have notified us in writing or we have agreed in the Order Confirmation that you need to collect the Vehicle or require delivery by a specific date and we do not have the Vehicle ready for collection or delivery on that date, you can give us a new deadline to have the Vehicle ready, which must be reasonable, or you can cancel your Order and we will refund you any part of the Price which you have already paid. If you give us a new deadline and we do not meet this, you can cancel your Order and we will refund you any part of the Price which you have already paid.
6.5 If you fail to collect or accept delivery of the Vehicle within 2 days of us notifying you that it is ready for collection or delivery, then we reserve the right to charge you a reasonable fee for the cost of the storage and insurance of the Vehicle and any delivery costs, until you collect it or take delivery. If you have not collected or accepted delivery of the Vehicle within 7 days of us notifying you that it is ready for collection or delivery, then we shall be entitled to terminate our Contract with you in accordance with Condition 12.1 by giving you 5 days' written notice of our intention to do so.

(a) we may reduce your refund of the Price to reflect any reduction in the value of the Vehicle if this has been caused by your use, storage or maintenance of the Vehicle, including but not limited to if the Vehicle has been used in a way which would not be permitted on an ordinary test drive. If we refund you all or part of the Price before we are able to inspect the Vehicle and later discover that it has been used in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount to account for the reduction in value. Please contact us using the contact details at Condition 1.3 if you would like further information about what handling is acceptable and examples; and

16. Events outside of our control

17.2 We may revise these Terms as they apply to your Order from time to time to reflect any changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements.
17.3 If we have to revise these Terms as they apply to your Order, we will contact you to give you reasonable advance notice of the changes and let you know how to cancel the Contract if you are not happy with the changes. If you opt to cancel, we will refund any part of the Price which you have already paid.
18. Other important terms

18.4 This Contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms, whether under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 or otherwise.
18.5 Each of the Conditions of these Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining Conditions will remain in full force and effect.
18.6 If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.
18.7 Please note that these Terms are governed by English law. This means a Contract for the purchase of a Vehicle and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it will be governed by English law. You and we both agree that the courts of England and Wales will have non-exclusive jurisdiction. However, if you are a resident of Northern Ireland you may also bring proceedings in Northern Ireland, and if you are a resident of Scotland, you may also bring proceedings in Scotland.
