Hello
I know this is probably a long shot.
I bought a car from ebay but being the highest bidder, it wasn't expensive £322 but cost alot for me. I asked before bidding if the car had any problems loosing water or oil and was told it didn't.
2 days after winning the car, the head gasket has gone, the thermostat housing and piping is corroded and the starter motor is sticking.
I have since found out that the car was sold by the ebay account holders ex wife no the ebay account holder and that before i collected the car both oil and water were low and had to be topped up.
I feel I was lied to and obviously that I have been sold a lemon with the owner having full knowledge of the problems with the car.
Do I have any legal rights at all?
Thanks
Carol
