  • RightCars offers a variety of vehicles, from nearly new to well-used vehicles requiring maintenance, servicing, or repairs ("repair work").
  • Unless explicitly stated in writing, RightCars does not provide guarantees or warranties regarding the condition of the vehicle, nor do we cover repair work, servicing, or roadworthy certification.

2. Liability & Risk

By purchasing a vehicle from Right Cars, you acknowledge and agree to the following:

  • Right Cars is not responsible for registering the vehicle in your name or conducting roadworthy assessments unless specifically stated in the Sales Agreement
  • If the vehicle carries an existing manufacturer's warranty, it is your responsibility to transfer it into your name
  • The vehicle's specifications are suitable for its intended use, and you have been given ample opportunity to inspect it before completing the purchase
  • You have assessed the condition of the vehicle and are satisfied with its current state.
  • Right Cars does not guarantee that the vehicle is in full working order, free of defects, or that its components meet the manufacturer's specifications, unless a mechanical warranty is explicitly included in the Sales Agreement
  • While we strive to provide accurate vehicle descriptions and odometer readings, Right Cars does not accept liability for any inaccuracies. Additionally, we cannot guarantee that the vehicle has not been previously damaged or, if it has, whether it was repaired to the manufacturer's standards
  • The vehicle will only be released from Right Cars' premises once full payment has been received, cleared, and reflected as per the tax invoice
  • As Right Cars is not the manufacturer of the vehicles, it is unreasonable to expect us to identify any hidden defects, failures, or hazards. Therefore, we do not accept liability for any mechanical failure or consequential damages arising from such issues.
  • In the event of a dispute, you agree to first attempt resolution with Right Cars within 10 business days. If the issue remains unresolved, the matter will be referred to the Motor Industry Ombudsman for review and recommendation
  • The terms of the Sales Agreement will be explained to you before signing. By signing, you confirm your understanding and acceptance of these terms
  • In accordance with our Privacy Policy, we may collect and store your personal information, including but not limited to voice recordings, images, identity documents, contact details, and addresses, within our secured databases
