Hey guys, me again.
Just was told about a situation and wanted to get some opinions on the matter.
So the situation is that a very close friend of mine was selling a car which he bought only a few months ago from a guy who I have been told was a "shady character". Why he bought the car in the first place is anybodies guess.
Anyways so he had the car for sale and somebody came and put down a deposit and was all set to buy the car, my friend pointed out all the problems and was happy for the guy to inspect the car for as long as he wanted and he even apparently took it for a test drive. My point is that the guy seemed happy with it for the price.
So today, the guy called him saying that he found out the car had been previously written off as a repairable W/O and repaired then re-registered.
He asked me if he was obliged to let the guy cancel the deal or if he is within is rights to tell him the deal stays on as agreed. I'm no expert so yeah, fire away.
Looking forward to reading the comments
Yes but your friend can keep the deposit. The buyer didnt do his homework before the deposit
