Main dealer used bike purchase.

[blade7]

3 weeks ago I placed a large deposit on a used bike from a Ducati main dealer. Part of the agreement was the bike would be ready for collection 2 weeks ago. It still isn't ready, and I have since spoken to the previous owner and discovered they were the 3rd owners of the bike. Not the 2nd as I had been advised by the dealer. Am I be entitled cancel the purchase, and to have my credit card deposit returned?

Any lawyers?

Why do you need a lawyer?

For facts, not opinions.

A lot of fair weather bikers (like me) like the idea of a Ducati, but when they actually own one for a bit, they realise it's not for them. Therefore, I personally wouldn't worry about the number of owners unless it was an excessive amount for the age and miles.

It does seem that some people buy a Ducati to look at rather than ride. The dealer has offered to refund my deposit.

Verbal agreement. Confirmed by email. 160 mile round trip. Parts delayed. Constitutes a contract?

I see you actually bought the bike.

That could still change...
