This is my tale - My girlfriend purchased a used Daewoo Matiz from a private seller on Saturday 17th April 2010, he told us that the car was given to him for some IT work that he had carried out at a local garage ( Who were unable to pay him the full amount!! ) He saw my girlfriends 'Car wanted' advert & telephoned, we travelled there, he took her for a drive around, she was happy & handed over her money, anywho yesterday she found a small ( Saucer sized ) spot of oil on the road below the engine & booked the car into our local garage to get their verdict. The car went in today & they found that the sump has a small hole in it where it has rusted through but, they also found that the Catalytic converter has recently been 'bandaged' up & will require a new one, total estimated cost of between £300-£500. The question is do i have any grounds to get in contact with the seller & either return the car or get him to pay for the repairs? or do we not really have a leg to stand on, your thoughts please.

Sorry about the late reply mangle. Unfortunately not in this case. Basically you only have comeback on a private seller is the car is dangerous or grossly misdescribed.

 

Check with a breakers yard for a cat.
