Can I reject my car?

Then we test drove the car the AC was not working, the condition of sale is the AC to be working, thed did this by refilling the gas.

It has now sprung a leak, which he said is covered.

Now because I have had the car over 30 days and say it still does not cure the fault can it be rejected, because a new compressor is £600+ (if it is that)

I dont want to reject the car as its in good condition, but the AC is not covered, except for electrical or a leak, I just want it working, so for me I want to force his hand that to really reject it.

does the car not have to be unfit for purpose for rejection?

Not a question of fit for purpose, question of whether it was sold on the understanding that the a/c would work and if so, whether the seller is going to repair it or try to wiggle out of it.

In any case, it's not up to the seller alone to decide whether a faulty car is fit for purpose or not.
