Take the matter to the small claims track of the county court then. It is actually now a Criminal Offence for him not to have made you aware of these faults under The Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 (CPRs). See: www.honestjohn.co.uk/faq/consumer-rights/ Once he is aware that you are aware the salesman will have to back dow.
Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.
