Call it the Sale of Goods Act & the dealer will know immediately that you are not up to date! Its The Consumer Rights Act 2015 that you need to refer to.

With respect thats potatoes and patatoes. Its about showing that you know your rights and consumer protection (pre the B word) has only ever strengthened over time.
I am sure i misquoted the misrepresentation law with a recent minor issue with Morgan Sales but the guy quickly understood what was required.


As you wish to be 100% accurate, you may wish to revisit your statement and i quote " 6 months statutory warranty provided on any 2nd hand car bought from a dealer" unquote. There is no legislation that requires a trader to offer any warranty of any period and neither the sale of goods or consumer protection acts imply or infer any such warranty. The acts simply apply the burden of proof upon the trader (6 months) to prove that the fault did not exist prior to delivery. Very different than a warranty.
