      2. Our Services depend on and largely comprise the provision of Third Party Information. As a general rule we cannot reasonably verify the correctness of Third Party Information. We therefore exclude any and all liability in relation to or in connection with Third Party Information.

We exclude any and all liability in relation to the Services we provide or fail to provide to you, including the provision of or failure to provide any information to you.
      4.

    7. Specific Disclaimer of Liability in Relation to Dealer Offers
      1. This clause is intended to prevent us from being liable at all in relation to or in connection with the terms of any contract, or any other aspects of any legal relationship, entered into between yourself and any third party, and the performance by any third party of any legal obligations. In particular (without limiting the effect of the preceding words of this subclause) this clause is intended to prevent us from being liable at all in relation to or in connection with the terms on which any dealer may agree to buy your vehicle.
      2. For the purposes of this clause liability “in relation to or in connection with” the terms of any contract between you and a dealer, or the matters stated in clause 7.1 above, is intended to cover all such liability howsoever arising, including but not limited to liability due to error, omission, inaccuracy or illegality.

      1. Without limiting the effect of the preceding clauses of these Terms and Conditions, we wish to bring your attention in particular to the following responsibilities. By using our Services you acknowledge that you are aware of the information in this cla
      2. We cannot vet every dealership in our network so it is your responsibility to make your own checks to your own satisfaction before proceeding with any sale.
      3. It is your responsibility to ensure that you are paid. You should accept only cleared funds from the dealer when accepting payment, including finance settlement. You should check the validity of any banker�s draft before handing over your vehicle and documents.
      4. It is your responsibility to check that your personal number plate is put on retention or transferred.
      5. We obtain prices for your car based on information provided by you and the purchasing dealer. Valuations are provided on a “subject to contract” basis and are not legally binding. You must give us complete and accurate information about your vehicle. We cannot be held responsible for incorrect information or mistakes made by the purchasing dealer.
      6. We firmly believe that we will achieve the best price to sell in the UK but this is not guaranteed. It is your responsibility to check that you are satisfied with the price indicated. You should obtain a comparable quotation.
      7. We cannot guarantee exactly how many dealers will be offered your vehicle or how many will want to bid for it.
      8. We do not provide binding confirmation of any proposed purchase price for your vehicle and a dealer may withdraw its valuation at any time until the purchase is concluded without legal consequence and with no liability to you and we accept no responsibility or liability for any such withdrawal.
      9. Nothing in this clause (clause 8) is intended to create any legal obligation owed by us.
      10. You expressly warrant that all the information supplied by you to us or to any dealer during any on-line valuation process or similar is accurate and true.
      11. You warrant that your vehicle is not subject to undisclosed finance.
      12. You warrant to the best of your knowledge and belief that your vehicle has not been an insurance write-off or involved in any other serious accident that required substantial remedial repairs.
      13. You warrant the mileage reading on your vehicle is true and accurate and that the odometer has not, to the best of your knowledge and belief, been tampered with.
      14. You warrant that there are no undisclosed physical defects with your vehicle that a prudent purchaser would want to be informed about (including cut and shuts, mechanically unsound or inoperable, unroadworthy and/or chassis damage and the like).
      15. You warrant that there are no undisclosed “title defects” with your vehicle that a prudent purchaser would want to be informed about.
      16. You warrant that you are the legal owner of the vehicle, you have the right to transfer the full unencumbered legal title and full ownership of your vehicle.
      17. You warrant that no other person has any claim to your vehicle whether legal, equitable, possessory or otherwise.
      18. It is your responsibility to disclose any existing finance associated with your vehicle.
      19. A dealer may agree to settle off the existing finance in lieu of payment (or part payment) of the vehicle to you at its absolute discretion. We accept no responsibility or liability in relation to any such finance and you will indemnify us in relation to any liability which we may incur.
      20. If the agreed sale price of your vehicle is lower than the settlement figure required to fully settle any related finance, you must pay the dealer the difference between the settlement figure and the agreed sum in advance of the dealer settling off the outstanding balance on the finance. Failure by you to pay such a sum (and put the dealer in cleared funds) within 7 days of an agreement will automatically render the contract between you and the dealer terminated.
      21. You remain liable to the finance company in respect to the related finance at all times until the credit agreement has been legally terminated and neither we nor any dealer accept any liability with respect to the related finance at any time or for any reason and you will indemnify us in relation to any such related finance.
    9. Transfer of your vehicle
      1. Risk and property in your vehicle will pass from you to the dealer at the time that the written contract provided by the dealer is signed by you.
      2. Failure by you to sign the written contract will have the effect of delaying the passing of risk and property. Risk and property in these circumstances will therefore pass on the “issue” of payment by the dealer to you and not on receipt of the same. If a cheque is to be made payable to a third party (such as a finance company) in lieu of payment to you, then risk and property will pass upon the issue of a cheque (or other appropriate means of payment) to the third party.
      3. Your vehicle must be delivered by you to designated premises allocated by the dealer at your expense.
      4. Collection of the vehicle directly by the dealer will only be made in the most exceptional of circumstances and only by prior agreement. An additional charge may be levied in these circumstances.
      5. The vehicle will be inspected by the dealer’s representative prior to completion of the written contract. A revised valuation may be offered where:
        1. the vehicle does not fully comply with the information provided during any online valuation process or similar; and/or
        2. where the condition is such that it has a substantial impact on the value of the vehicle; and/or
        3. other relevant factors not disclosed affect the valuation.
      6. In addition to the on-site valuation, the vehicle must be physically inspected by a qualified mechanic either before or after you have signed the written contract. If the physical inspection by the qualified mechanic is carried out after the written contract has been completed and signed by you, the dealer may rescind the contract for any serious defect subsequently discovered in the vehicle by such inspection.
      7. The physical inspection must however be conducted by the qualified mechanic on behalf of the dealer within 48 hours of the written contract being signed by you. Failure to have the vehicle physically inspected within this strict time period is at the risk of the dealer.
      8. When you deliver your vehicle, you shall provide the dealer with all the necessary documentation relating to the vehicle such as service record and invoices, V5 (log book), road tax disc, spare keys, manuals etc.
    10. No Agency
      1. We do not act as your agents.
      2. We do not act as agents for any third party, including any dealer.
    11. Further Indemnity
      1. You agree to indemnify us for any losses arising out of any misrepresentation that you make to us, including third party losses if we communicate that information to a third party, including any dealer.

      1. These Terms and Conditions shall be governed by English law
    19. Exclusive Jurisdiction
      1. These Terms and Conditions shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
