Legal Implications regarding buying car.

I'm not so sure about that Ian

that is law everywhere, some of these call centres in Germany are so crass that if you're cold called and agree to have info sent to you about a product then that is considered a "legal contract", so Yes a verbal contract is BINDING

That may be the case on the phone, where you are tape recorded.

I'm just asking, where there is no evidence of the conversation then surely to god it couldn't.

eg....someone comes to see my car at home where I may have it for sale....... 2 days later, they come with a stupid amount of money and say I said I'd sell it to them !!!!

I don't think so. Evidence is required. (unless I have missed the point somewhere?)

Nope, these phone calls aren't recorded and there is no evidence, it's not on IMO but it's legal. It used to be called a gentleman's agreement and it is binding.

I'll have to go and visit Worthers and a week later go to the court and tell the Magistrates that Ian agreed to sell it to me for £12,000.

Fingers crossed, they would believe me......

Ian, when are you available this week?

There have been a number of TV programmes on it here, believe me, you can get out of these contracts most of the time, but by the time you realise that you've agreed to a 2 year contract (for example) it's often too late.

I always understood (and was told as much) that in the UK that a verbal contract is just that a contract, ask your lawyer.
