    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

I don't know, but wonder if the material in this link is relevant: http://trialandappeal.blogspot.com/2005/11/good-judgesbad-judges.html

Thank you

I'm sure there was a lot more to this perverted judgment than met the eye, but whatever the reasons I'm still left with only one option.

 

I can't tell you what an effect this whole debacle has had on my health lately, the stress of writing an appeal that will be going to the High Court is beyond words. I can't even count the amount of times I've wanted to throw the towel in just so I can have something that faintly resembles a normal life again!

 

I know I'll never forgive myself if I don't see this through now so I'm battling on :razz:

 

It's funny how little gems of wisdom come from the most unlikely places:

BBA PPI Judicial Review Case- "......deals with contraventions of rules by making them actionable as breaches of statutory duty. "Actionable" means giving rise to a cause of action in a court of law."

 

Who'd have ever thought the word 'actionable' was actually a legal term?? :madgrin:

I admire you for your tenacity. There are times in my life where I let myself be trodden on because it was too much effort to do something about it.

 

However, having read through this thread, and followed some other ones, my personal opinion is that there is something seriously wrong with the culture in our legal system. Particularly where litigants in person are concerned. It seems to me that judges will pass down verdicts which make no sense whatsoever, but in looking back over the history of the case, it's almost as if the "other side" know that they don't have to bother creating a proper case as they're just going to win anyhow. In your case, my reading of the matter is that the judge's pronouncements that S92 doesn't apply to hire purchase agreements (if I remember this all correctly) is just insanely wrong. How and why did this judge make this decision?

 

That confusion is why I was googling things when I came up with the link in my previous post.

Tenacity has been waning lately but I'm doing the best I can to muster up enough to get this done!

 

The judge appeared to deliberately 'skim over' S92 when summing up as did t'other side when closing.

It was like this:

T'other side in closing submission, something along the lines of- 'I will draw the court's attention to Sections 90, 92 and 140 and say that the goods were not protected at the time of repossession, the consequences of which are somewhat draconian. When considering a judgment for Unfair Relationship, the court has wide ranging powers and would ask that the court bear that in mind when reaching a decision.'

 

The judge in giving his judgment- "Judgment for the Claimant in the claim of Trespass" and then "The goods were not protected and this was not a Chattel Mortgage therefore no Court Order was needed and so no breach of statutory duty occurred"

 

At no point did anybody pay any attention to what I consider to be the main point of my claim! It's so infuriating :mad2:

Followed up by T'other side's solicitor adding this to their website AFTER the trial:

"What happens if the borrower defaults? Because the loan agreement is regulated by the Consumer Credit Act, the lender can't seize the car without going to Court for an order, if the borrower has paid back more than 1/3 of the loan. Even if less than this has been paid back, the lender can only seize and sell the car if it's parked in a public place such as on the road. If it's on private land (eg in a garage or on a drive) a Court order is needed otherwise the lender risks a claim for common law trespass or breach of statutory duty (although it should be noted that if the trespass is minimal and no damage is done the Court will only award nominal damages)."

 

The bold section is the 'addition' :???:

Damages for breach of statutory duty are measured by loss so I claimed the value of my 'lost' car and my 'lost' expenses at having to replace it as a result of their breach.

With 140 the court has powers to return all sums paid and release from all further liability and that is what I claimed.

It's just so infuriating, they'll never stop doing this. They think they're above the law and the Judges give them more and more reason to carry on :-x

it has been in the papers if a car is untaxed and been sawn off the road they can now take it away and crush it, this is disgusting because times are really hard and people cant afford to tax their cars straight away but save for this and still want the cars its on their own property so whats the problem is not hurting anyone is it its not on the road with out tax,

you need to read the regs again

 

if a vehicle is SORN off road then

 

they cant remove it

If the vehicle has a valid SORN declaration, then it can legally parked on private property with no tax or insurance. However, for tenants, it would be well worth checking your tenancy agreement as many require vehicles parked at the property to be (at least) insured - this particularly applies to apartment blocks with communal car-parks; clearly to try and protect the assets of all the tenants that use the facilities.

Mark!!

You've been sorely missed :sad:

So glad to see you back :madgrin:

 

Yes I can hardly believe it myself, those early days seem such a long time ago now, especially cos I'm off to the High Court today to hand deliver my permission to appeal notice :!: Who'd have thought it would have come to this from such small beginnings!

So to take the car back from you, that is on private land they need a court order? Would this mean they would add the cost of getting that court order to your debt?

Only if they win.

I would imagine that anybody who didn't give their consent to having their car repossessed from their private property would have a good reason for doing so, maybe one that would be best dealt with at a court hearing??

Thanks for the reply, but if i lost what would it cost me? £50 or £500 or worse? I am thinking that a judge is not going to give me a free car.

It would entirely depend on the circumstances, has the creditor done something they shouldn't have or do you have some kind of gripe with them?? A judge would be highly unlikely give you a free car at an ordinary Return of Goods hearing, unfortunately there's so much more to it than I could give you a straightforward answer to.
