Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
Just bough a new CAR, which is derived from a van. Having been looking at the registration documnet it says Class CAR MPV. And I have confirmed this with the customs website (HM Revenue & Customs: Reclaiming VAT on cars and motoring expenses) as it is a Combination van meeting the criteria stated to be a car.
The vehicle was second-hand but I was charged the window price + VAT is this correct? I did'nt query it at the time as I though being a combi it would be classed as commercial but customs and DVLA seem to think different.
I am bouncing other stuff back to the dealer anyway as I am having problems with them. Should I request the VAT back? Will they still pay the VAT or will it go into thier pocket as profit? if the latter I want it for me.
Any help appreciated, it is a national dealership and now the salesman has blatantly lied to me over other things I'd like to screw them to the wall and this would be ideal. I am a private buyer and not buying it for business and the dealership was fully aware of this. Also I will no be attemting to recliam the VAT (other than from the dealer, possibly)
I look forward to your thoughs and have a merry christmas one and all.
Did you have a printed receipt or a hand written one ?

Printed reciept as it is a major national dealership. With cost and VAT quoted separate.
Vehicle was also bought on HP and I am aware I have recorse to the HP company, another well kown name, and will alos do so once I have a good idea of the legitimacy of the VAT charge.
Just not sure of the way VAT is charged on second hand cars vs second hand commercials when sold by a dealer.
If the dealer is registered for vat and he paid vat on the car then he has
to charge vat on it's sale.
How much he charges is dependent on the system he is registered under.
That could be whole business or just profit, he is not obliged to tell you
which system.
