General Terms & Conditions

1. Introduction

Please read these terms of sale carefully. You will be asked to expressly agree to these terms of sale before you place an order for products from our website.

2. Interpretation

In these terms of sale, "we" means anycolourcar.com, a trading style of anycolourcar Limited (and "us" and "our" will be construed accordingly); and "you" means our customer or potential customer for products (and "your" will be construed accordingly).

3. Order Process

The advertising of products on our website constitutes an "invitation to treat", and your order for products constitutes a contractual offer. No contract will come into force between you and us until we accept your order in accordance with the procedure detailed below.

To enter into a contract to purchase products from us, you will need to take the following steps:

• You must contact us by telephone, email, or our online enquiry form with the details of the vehicle you wish to purchase.

• We will confirm the vehicle details with you and take a deposit by debit or credit card to reserve that vehicle.

• We will send you an initial acknowledgement.

• Once we have checked whether we are able to meet your order, we will either send you an order confirmation (at which point your order becomes a binding contract) or confirm by email that we are unable to meet your order.

We will not file a copy of these terms of sale specifically for your order. We may update the version of these terms of sale on the website from time to time, and we recommend that you download, print, and retain a copy for your records.

The only language in which we provide these terms of sale is English.

4. The Products

The products we sell are used vehicles as advertised on our website. While we make every effort to ensure that all details provided are accurate, errors or omissions in the description or specifications may occur. It is the responsibility of the customer to verify all critical information regarding the vehicle with us prior to purchase.

5. Price and Payment

Prices for products are quoted on our website. Due to the large number of products on the site, it is possible that some prices may be incorrect. We will verify prices as part of our sale procedures, and the correct price will be confirmed when you place an order. Should a pricing error occur, we will ask if you wish to proceed at the correct price or cancel your order and receive a refund.

In addition to the product price, you may have to pay a delivery charge, which will be confirmed at the time of order.

Payment must be made in full before the release of the product to you. We may withhold products or cancel the contract if the payment is not received in full and in cleared funds.

Prices on the website include all value-added taxes (where applicable).

Payment for all products must be made by cleared funds via bank transfer, debit card, or using our approved finance providers. Payments made by credit card are limited to £500 per transaction.

If you dispute any payment made to us, you must contact us immediately. Submitting an unjustified charge-back may result in you being liable for costs, including an administration fee of £50, third-party expenses, and reasonable recovery costs (including legal fees).

6. Your Warranties

You warrant to us that:

• You are legally capable of entering into binding contracts and have full authority, power, and capacity to agree to these terms of sale.

• The information provided in your order is accurate and complete.

• You will be able to accept delivery of the products.

• You are a resident in the United Kingdom.

• You are at least 18 years of age.

7. Delivery Policy

We will arrange for products to be delivered to the address you provide. We will use reasonable endeavours to deliver on or before the date set out in the order confirmation or, if no date is set out, within 14 days of confirmation. However, we cannot guarantee delivery by the relevant date. Unless there are exceptional circumstances, all deliveries will be dispatched within 30 days of the later of receipt of payment and order confirmation.

Delivery charges will be communicated during the order process. If you cancel the contract within the cooling-off period, you are responsible for the cost of returning the product.

d. Effects of Cancellation

If you cancel this contract, we will refund any payments received from you for the purchase of the vehicle only. We will not refund any additional services or modifications, such as:

Paint protection.

Alloy wheel colour changes.

Vehicle modifications or added-value products (e.g., extended warranties, service plans, or interior treatments).

The following conditions and deductions apply to the refund of the vehicle purchase price:

Usage Deduction:
We will deduct £0.50 per mile driven beyond the first 20 miles. Anything beyond what is considered a standard test drive is regarded as excessive handling and will reduce the vehicle's value.

Damage and Wear:
We may also deduct from the refund to reflect any damage, modifications, or excessive wear caused while the vehicle was in your possession.

Refund Timing:
We will issue the refund without undue delay and within 14 days of receiving both the vehicle and any associated documents (e.g., V5 logbook, service history, etc.). We reserve the right to delay the vehicle's registration with the DVLA until the cancellation period has passed.

Part-Exchange Vehicles:
If you have part-exchanged a vehicle as part of the purchase, we may return the part-exchange vehicle to you, provided it is still available. If not, we may adjust the refund to reflect the agreed part-exchange value.

Method of Refund:
Refunds will be made using the same payment method you used unless otherwise agreed. You will not incur any fees as a result of the refund.

Withholding of Refund:
We reserve the right to withhold the refund until we have received both the vehicle and all relevant documents in good order.

e. Returning the Vehicle

You are responsible for returning the vehicle to us without undue delay and no later than 14 days after informing us of your decision to cancel. You must not drive the vehicle after giving notice of cancellation, except to return it to us.

You are liable for maintaining the vehicle's tax, insurance, and ensuring compliance with the law until the vehicle is safely returned to our premises and accepted by us.

f. Costs of Return

You are responsible for the cost of returning the vehicle to us. If you require, we can arrange for the vehicle to be collected from your address at a charge of £2 per mile, calculated from our premises to your address. The collection cost will be deducted from your refund if applicable.

g. Liabilities for Diminished Value

You are responsible for any diminished value of the vehicle resulting from handling beyond what is necessary to establish the vehicle's nature, characteristics, and functioning (e.g., excessive mileage, damage, or modifications).

h. Exclusions from Cancellation Rights

You are not entitled to cancel the contract or receive a refund in the following cases:

If the vehicle has covered more than 200 miles since delivery or collection.

If the vehicle has been altered, modified, or damaged while in your possession, except for necessary handling to assess its nature or functionality.

i. Non-Refundable Items

The following costs are non-refundable:

Paint protection or any additional services or treatments added to the vehicle.

Alloy wheel colour changes or other custom modifications.

Vehicle modifications or value-added products, such as extended warranties, service plans, or interior/exterior treatments.

Road Fund Licence (Road Tax).

£75 administration fee for processing the cancellation.

£75 re-valet fee for preparing the vehicle for resale.

Key Points for Maximum Protection and Compliance:

Distance Selling Limitations:
The document clearly states that distance selling rights only apply to private individuals purchasing outright. Business customersand purchases made under tri-party finance agreements (HP, PCP) are excluded, ensuring compliance with the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013.

Non-Refundable Costs:
The exclusion of added services like paint protection, alloy wheel changes, and other modifications protects your business from having to refund these extras, which are often custom or non-recoverable costs.

Liabilities for Excessive Use and Damage:
The mileage cap of 20 miles and a £0.50 per mile charge for excess usage, combined with the deductions for any damage or modifications, ensure you are protected from loss in vehicle value if the customer returns a heavily used or damaged vehicle.

Return Process:
Making the customer bear the costs for returning the vehicle (including a £2 per mile collection fee, if applicable) ensures that the financial burden of returns is not placed on your business.

9. Risk and Ownership

The products will be at your risk from the time of delivery. Ownership of the products will only pass to you upon the later of:

• Delivery of the products; and

• Receipt by us of full payment of all sums due (including delivery charges).

We are entitled to recover payment for the products even where ownership has not yet passed to you.

10. "Cooling Off" Period

Under the Consumer Contracts Regulations, you may cancel a distance contract to purchase a product from us within 14 days of receipt of the product. To cancel, you must give us written notice of cancellation.

You must return the product to us in the same condition you received it. You are responsible for the cost of returning the product. If you fail to return the product, we may recover it and charge you for the costs incurred.

If you wish, we can arrange for the vehicle to be collected from your address. In this case, a collection charge of £2 per mile (measured from our location to your address) will apply. This cost will be communicated and agreed with you before collection is arranged.

11. Usage Charge for Returns

If you cancel the contract and return the vehicle, a usage fee of £0.50 per mile driven after the first 20 miles will apply. This fee reflects the depreciation in the vehicle's value from usage and is calculated to be proportionate to the vehicle's condition and market value. You will also be responsible for any reasonable costs to correct changes to the vehicle’s condition that go beyond fair wear and tear (e.g., scratches, dents, or interior damage). These costs will be assessed and communicated to you prior to finalising any deductions.

12. Refunds

If you cancel a contract and are entitled to a refund, we will refund you as soon as possible and in any event within 30 days of receiving your valid notice of cancellation. The refund will include the cost of the product minus any applicable usage charges or costs to correct changes to the vehicle's condition.

Delivery charges paid for the original delivery of the vehicle will only be refunded to the extent of the standard delivery option. Additional or premium delivery services are non-refundable.

Our logistics and preparation teams are forced to act quickly and as such we cannot guarantee to be able to return a part exchange vehicle in the event of a cancellation or unwind.

Non-Refundable Costs: We will not refund the road fund licence (road tax), and a £75 administration fee plus a £75 re-valet fee will be deducted from the refund amount.

13. 7-Day Money-Back Guarantee

We offer a 7-day money-back guarantee for vehicles purchased from our website, in addition to your statutory rights under the Consumer Contracts Regulations.

• Eligibility: The 7-day money-back guarantee applies only to private individuals (i.e., non-business customers) and excludes companies or commercial purchases. This guarantee is not applicable to delivery mileage or new vehicles, nor does it apply to vehicles purchased with added-value products or additional work (e.g., modifications or extras).

• VAT Q Vehicles: If the vehicle purchased is VAT Qualifying (VAT Q), the refund will be net of VAT, meaning only the vehicle price excluding VAT will be refunded.

• Return Process: If you wish to return a vehicle under this guarantee, you must notify us in writing within 7 days of delivery. The vehicle must be returned in the same condition as when you received it, and it will be subject to a mechanical inspection to ensure it meets our return conditions.

• Mileage Limits: A usage charge of £0.50 per mile will apply for any mileage over 20 miles driven during the 7-day period. This fee reflects the depreciation in value due to vehicle usage. Once more than 200 miles have been covered you are not applicable for the 7-Day Money-Back Guarantee.

• Return Costs: You are responsible for returning the vehicle to us. If you wish, we can arrange for the vehicle to be collected from your address at a charge of £2 per mile, calculated from our premises to your address.

• Non-Refundable Costs: We will not refund the road fund licence (road tax), and a £75 administration fee plus a £75 re-valet fee will be deducted from the refund amount.

• Refund: Once we receive the vehicle and verify its condition through mechanical inspection, we will refund the full purchase price, minus any applicable usage fees, admin fees, re-valet fees, and return costs, within 14 days.

• Part Exchange: Our logistics and preparation teams are forced to act quickly and as such we cannot guarantee to be able to return a part exchange vehicle in the event of a cancellation or unwind.

14. Accuracy of Vehicle Information

We make every effort to ensure that the details provided in our advertisements are accurate and correct to the best of our knowledge. However, errors may occur, and information on our website or in our adverts may contain inaccuracies or omissions (e.g., mileage, specifications, or features). We encourage all customers to verify key details, including specifications and history, with our sales team before making a purchase. If an error is identified after a purchase, we will work with you to rectify any issues in line with your statutory rights.

15. MPG and EV Range Figures

Manufacturer-quoted fuel consumption (MPG) and electric vehicle (EV) range figures are based on standardised laboratory tests. These figures are provided for comparative purposes but may not reflect actual driving conditions. Factors such as driving style, vehicle load, road conditions, and weather can significantly affect real-world performance. For more accurate information on a specific vehicle's likely performance, please contact our sales team.

16. Vehicle History and Multi-User Vehicles

Some of our vehicles may have been used for multiple purposes, including business leases, company cars, or taxi use. These vehicles may have had multiple previous owners. We provide information about the vehicle’s history to the best of our ability, and this will be disclosed at the point of sale. If you have specific concerns about a vehicle’s prior use, please ask us for clarification before completing your purchase.

17. Statutory Rights

Nothing in these terms affects your statutory rights, including your right to receive a refund for any defective products.

• Limit any liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.

We will not be liable for losses arising from events beyond our reasonable control or for any business losses, such as loss of profits, revenue, or goodwill.

We will treat your personal information in accordance with our privacy policy. Contracts under these terms may only be varied by written agreement signed by both parties. If any provision of these terms is found invalid or unenforceable by a court, the remaining provisions will continue in effect.

Contracts under these terms are for the benefit of the parties involved and are not intended to benefit, or be enforceable by, any third party.

If we fail to enforce any of these terms, it will not be considered a waiver of any other rights. A waiver of any part of these terms must be made in writing and signed by us.

20. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These terms will be governed by and construed in accordance with English law, and any disputes relating to these terms will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

21. Vehicle Supply
