Buying remotely
Discussion
Anyone still buying cars at the moment?
I've seen a vehicle which I would like to purchase but it's at the opposite end of the country from an indy garage with a 6hr journey each way.
They have given me a video but it's difficult to be able to judge something from one I find, and at £30k, it's a fair old amount to be gambling if it's not right.
Current lockdown rules say has to be paid in full prior to collection and as I'd need to sort finance out, if its not what I'm looking for then I'd end up with the finance separately.
They can deliver for about £300
Risk worth taking?

If you’ve never at any point physically set foot in the dealership before you pay them in full then it counts as a distance sale and you can return the car for a full refund within 14 days, no questions asked.
Would the buyer be responsible for return transportation costs? What about the 'delivery costs' - would these be deductible from the refund?280E said:

which.co.uk says:What should you get back if you cancelled?
“The seller's terms and conditions or returns policy should state who pays the cost of returning an item.
If they don't state this, then the seller has to cover the cost.
In this case, you're entitled to a refund of the total amount you paid, including costs to ship the item to you, and the fee to return the item. No admin or restocking fees should be charged.”
