akki will resolve the problem dont worry
i find it very unfair how you can name a town bad just because of somthing that hapened init
bradford does have a bad name for car sales because of places like keighly trade centre etc ...
but surely if u was buying a car and it had been crash damaged you would realise when looking at it i no i would ?

If someone buys cars and sells them for a profit they are a trader and have responsibilities. If you get any problems speak to your local trading standards office.
Your rights when buying from a dealer
When buying from a dealer, the law says a car must be:
Of satisfactory quality. It must meet the standard a reasonable person would regard as acceptable, bearing in mind the way it was described, how much it cost, the age and the mileage on the vehicle. Amongst other things, this covers the appearance and finish of the car, its safety and its durability. The car must be free from defects, except when they were pointed out to you by the seller.
As described. If the advert states “air conditioning and CD player” then the car should come with these features and they should be working.
Reasonably fit for any normal purpose. It should get you from A to B.
Reasonably fit for any other purpose you specify to the seller. For example, towing a caravan.
These rights are not affected by any mechanical breakdown insurance (which is often sold by dealers if the manufacturer's warranty has run out), guarantee or warranty giving additional protection. Once a trader gives a warranty it becomes an agreement on its own, but it is not your legal right to demand a warranty from the trader.
If you inspect the car, or someone does so for you, the dealer may not be liable for any faults which should have been uncovered by the inspection. It's a good idea to get a description of the vehicle's condition from the dealer: ask whether there is a pre-sale inspection checklist.
