                Very sad state of affairs. I'm afraid the rule on buying 30 year old cars is to trust no-one but yourself. Best of luck.

                If you are really thinking of going legal, I would DEFINITELY refrain from naming, shaming and insulting on an open public Internet forum as that may backfire badly.

                  Yes, I agree..........

                  Leave the name and shame game alone.

                  You can always play catch-up if it all goes pear shaped.

                  If you get to a stage were nothings doing with the Garage and you need spares to put right just ask the chaps on here if they can help out.

                  I'm sure we can rally around.

                  Best of Luck.

                    Thanks guy's,

                    No word from him affraid, have spoken to Citizens advice people they think I should be able to do him for several things including breach of contract (said he would tax the car but didnt), sale of goods act (must match its description, be fit for purpose & be of satisfactory quality) related to price paid etc.
                    Misrepresentation & possibly comitted a criminal offence (selling a unroadworthy vehicle without stating the vehicle required work)

                    Will contact trading standard to see what they say.

                    Have asked a couple of garages & Charlie Chisolm (thanks Paul) to give me quotes on repair costs so can present this to him/legal team.

                    Really annoying not being able to do anything to the car.

                      Just a thought,
                      Are there any proffessionals in the N/East that could inspect the car to give a written description to help if does go to court?

                      CheeRS,

                          take it step by step. DON'T make any more 'phone calls. If you send letters, send them as registered post. If you've made 'phone calls, write the date & time and content down NOW before you forget. See if your 'phone bill can contain the numbers dialled (if it doesn't already).

                          Start preparing a WRITTEN dossier of all events.

                          Personally, I wouldn't recommend letting the car into the hands of other Experts at the moment.

                          It could be a good idea now to put everything into a letter and send it to him. Be VERY cool - no accusations, just facts. Demand a reply within a "reasonable" time (say 5 working days).

                          Follow up all advice of CAB etc (but don't expect TOO much from them) Are you in a motoring club like AA or RAC who may offer legal advice?

                            Him being a trader has to supply road worthy goods and this is clearly not. You have a legal right to get your full money back or get compensation for a car that was not properly described. As said, keep all correspondence/adverts etc and seek legal advice,tbh he has not got a leg to stand on,can't believe he's ignoring your calls,fkn muppet

                              'tis very unfortunate, but "being in the right" and "getting your rights" are often poles apart.

                              Stay polite and factual. That way, if the "legal" way doesn't work out, you may still be able to barter some solution face-to-face with him. If you get nasty, threatening and insulting right at the start, then you've immediately lost the back up solution, however improbable it may be.

                              A solicitor's letter which may even offer a possible financial solution could be the right approach. Don't expect the legal system to spend time in helping you get back 500 quid - it's too tied up with wading through invented excuses by speeders who want to get out of paying a fine which they fairly and squarely deserved!!
