3. OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU
3.1 How we will accept your order for servicing and repair work together with parts. Our acceptance of your order for servicing and repair work together with parts will take place when we have prepared a written description or specification for the servicing and repair work to be performed by us under your order (hereafter a “Job Card”) which you sign, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us.
3.2 How we will accept your order for parts only. Our acceptance of your order for parts only will take place when we issue an invoice for the part and you pay to us (in cash or cleared funds) in full the sum due in advance, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us.
3.3 If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and will not charge you for the servicing and repair work and/or parts. This might be because the part is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the servicing and repair work and/or part or because we are unable to meet a supply deadline you have specified.
3.4 We only sell to the UK. Our brochure and website are solely for the promotion of our parts in the UK. Unfortunately, we do not accept orders from or deliver to addresses outside the UK.
4. PARTS
4.1 Parts may vary slightly from their pictures. The images of the parts in our catalogue, brochure or on our website are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that a device's display of the colours or the printed pictures in our brochure accurately reflects the colour of the parts. Your part may vary slightly from those images. Although we have made every effort to be as accurate as possible, because our parts are made by manufacturers, all sizes, weights, capacities, dimensions and measurements indicated on our website or in our catalogue or brochure may vary where this has been altered by the manufacturer.
4.2 Part packaging may vary. The packaging of the part may vary from that shown on images on our website or in our catalogue or brochure.
4.3 Making sure your measurements and specifications are accurate.

5. YOUR RIGHTS TO MAKE CHANGES
If you wish to make a change to the parts and/or servicing and repair work you have ordered please contact us. We will let you know if the change is possible. If it is possible we will let you know about any changes to the price of the parts and/or servicing and repair work, the timing of supply or anything else which would be necessary as a result of your requested change and ask you to confirm whether you wish to go ahead with the change.
6. OUR RIGHTS TO MAKE CHANGES
6.1 Minor changes to the parts and/or servicing and repair work. We may change the part and/or servicing and repair work:
(a) to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements; and
(b) to implement minor technical adjustments and improvements, for example to address a safety issue.
These changes will not affect your use of the part.
6.2 More significant changes to the part. In addition, as we informed you in the description of the part in our catalogue, brochure or on our website, we may make the following changes to the part, but if we do so we will notify you and you may then contact us to end the contract and receive a full refund before the changes take effect:
(a) changes to the design or technical specification of a part where the manufacturer of that part has made such a change. These changes will not affect your use of the part.
6.3 More significant changes to the servicing and repair work and these terms. In addition to clause 6.2, we may make other changes to the servicing and repair work, or these terms, but if we do so we will notify you and you may then contact us to end the contract and receive a full refund for any servicing and repair work paid before the changes take effect.
7. PROVIDING THE PARTS AND/OR SERVICING AND REPAIR WORK
7.1 When we will provide the parts and/or servicing and repair work.
(a) If you are ordering parts. If you are ordering parts, we will let you know the estimated delivery date during the ordering process.
(b) If you are ordering one-off servicing and repair work. We will begin the servicing and repair work on the date set out in the Job Card. The estimated completion date for the servicing and repair work is as set out in the Job Card.
7.2 We are not responsible for delays outside our control. If our supply of the parts and/or performance of the servicing and repair work is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the contract in accordance with clause 8 and receive a refund for any parts you have paid for but not received.
7.3 Collection by you. If you have asked to collect the parts, and /or repaired or serviced vehicle from our premises, you can collect them from us at any time during our working hours of 8am to 6pm on weekdays (excluding public holidays) and 8am to 1pm on Saturdays.
7.4 If you do not re-arrange collection. If you do not collect the parts and/ or repaired or serviced vehicle from us as arranged, we will contact you for further instructions and may charge you for storage costs. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or re-arrange collection we may end the contract and clause 9.2 will apply.
7.5 Your legal rights if we supply the parts and/or perform the servicing and repair works late. You have legal rights if we supply any parts and/or perform the servicing and repair works late. If we miss the supply deadline for any parts and/or performance of the servicing and repair works then you may treat the contract as at an end straight away if any of the following apply:
(a) we have refused to supply the parts and/or perform the servicing and repair works;
(b) collection by you within the supply deadline was essential (taking into account all the relevant circumstances); or
(c) you told us before we accepted your order that collection by you within the supply deadline was essential.
7.6 Setting a new deadline for supply. If you do not wish to treat the contract as at an end straight away, or do not have the right to do so under clause 7.5, you can give us a new deadline for supply, which must be reasonable, and you can treat the contract as at an end if we do not meet the new deadline.
7.7 Ending the contract for late supply. If you do choose to treat the contract as at an end for late supply under clause 7.5 or clause 7.6, you can cancel your order for any of the parts and/or servicing and repair works. If you wish, you can reject or cancel the order for some of those parts and/or servicing and repair works (not all of them), unless in the case of parts, splitting them up would significantly reduce their value. After that we will refund any sums you have paid to us for the cancelled parts and/or servicing and repair works. If the parts have been collected you, you will have to return them to us.
7.8 When you become responsible for the part and/or serviced and repaired vehicle. The part and/or serviced and repaired vehicle will be your responsibility from the time you collect the part from us, or a carrier organised by you collects it from us.
7.9 When you own goods. You own a part or material supplied in the course of servicing and repair works once we have received payment in full.
7.10 What will happen if you do not give required information to us. We may need certain information from you so that we can supply the parts and/or servicing and repair work to you, for example, vehicle mileage, registration and/or complete chassis number. We will ask you for this information during the ordering process. If you do not give us this information within a reasonable time of us asking for it, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, we may either end the contract (see clause 9.1) or make an additional charge of a reasonable sum to compensate us for any extra work that is required as a result. We will not be responsible for supplying the parts late or not supplying any part of them if this is caused by you not giving us the information we need within a reasonable time of us asking for it. We will not be responsible for supplying an incorrect part if this is caused by you giving us incomplete or incorrect information.
7.11 Reasons we may suspend the supply of parts and/or performance of servicing and repair work to you. We may have to suspend the supply of a part or performance of a service and repair work to:
(a) deal with technical problems or make minor technical changes;
(b) update the part and/or service and repair work to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements;
(c) comply with any recall on vehicles, parts or parts required by a manufacturer;
(d) make changes to the part and/or service and repair work as requested by you or notified by us to you (see clause 6).
7.12 Your rights if we suspend the supply of parts and/or performance of servicing and repair work. We will contact you in advance to tell you we will be suspending supply of the part or performance of a service and repair work, unless the problem is urgent or an emergency. If we have to suspend the part or service and repair work for longer than 30 days, we will adjust the price so that you do not pay for parts or servicing and repair work while they are suspended. You may contact us to end the contract for a part or service and repair work if we suspend it, or tell you we are going to suspend it, in each case for a period of more than 30 and we will refund any sums you have paid in advance for the part in respect of the period after you end the contract.
7.13 We may also suspend supply of the parts and/or performance of servicing and repair work if you do not pay. If you do not pay us for the parts and/or servicing and repair work when you are supposed to (see clause 12.4) and you still do not make payment within 7 days of us reminding you that payment is due, we may suspend supply of the parts or performance of the servicing and repair work until you have paid us the outstanding amounts. We will contact you to tell you we are suspending supply of the parts or performance of the servicing and repair work. We will not suspend the parts and/or servicing and repair work where you dispute the unpaid invoice (see clause 12.6). We will not charge you for the parts and/or servicing and repair work during the period for which they are suspended. As well as suspending the parts and/or servicing and repair work we can also charge you interest on your overdue payments (see clause 12.5) and exercise a lien over any motor vehicle at our premises (see clause 9.5).
7.14 Removed parts. All parts removed by us from a vehicle in the course of repair and servicing Work shall, unless prior written notice to the contrary has been given by you, be deemed to be wholly abandoned to us with immediate effect and become our absolute property.
8. YOUR RIGHTS TO END THE CONTRACT
8.1 You can always end the contract (a) for the supply of a part before it has been completed; or (b) before the servicing and repair work has been performed. You may contact us to end your contract for (a) a part at any time before we have completed supplying it and you have paid for it; or (b) a service and repair work before they have been performed, but in some circumstances, we may charge you for doing so, as described below. Of course, you always have rights where a part is faulty or mis-described (see clause 10, "If there is a problem with the parts").
8.2 What happens if you have a good reason for ending the contract. If you are ending a contract for a reason set out at (a) to (e) below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any parts and/or servicing and repair work which have not been provided or performed or have not been provided or performed properly and you may also be entitled to further compensation. The reasons are:
(a) we have told you about an upcoming change to the part and/or service and repair work or these terms which you do not agree to (see clause 6.2);
(b) we have told you about an error in the price or description of the part and/or service and repair work you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;
(c) there is a risk that supply of the parts or performance of servicing and repair work may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control;
(d) we have suspended supply of the parts and/or servicing and repair work for technical reasons, or notify you we are going to suspend them for technical reasons, in each case for a period of more than 30 days; or
(e) you have a legal right to end the contract because of something we have done wrong (but see clause 7.5 in relation to your rights to on end the contract if we supply late.
8.3 What happens if you end the contract without a good reason. Unless you have a right to end the contract immediately (see clause 8.2), the contract will not end until 30 days after the day on which you contact us. We will refund any advance payment you have made for parts and/or servicing and repair work, which will not be provided to you. For example, if you tell us you want to end the contract on 4 February we will continue to supply the parts and/or servicing and repair work until 3 March. We will only charge you for supplying the parts and/or servicing and repair work up to 3 March and will refund any sums you have paid in advance for the supply of the part after 3 March.
8.4 Returning parts held in stock after ending the contract. In the case of parts we hold in stock, if you end the contract after parts have been collected by you, you must return them to us. If you are ending the contract because we have told you of an upcoming change to the part or these terms, an error in pricing or description, a delay in delivery due to events outside our control or because you are exercising your legal rights to end the contract because of something we have done wrong then we will pay the costs of return. In all other circumstances you must pay the costs of return.
8.5 Returning parts not held in stock after ending the contract. In the case of parts we do not hold in stock and must order directly from a manufacturer or supplier, if you end the contract without a good reason after the parts have been shipped or sent to us by the manufacturer or supplier, we cannot accept return of the parts and will not refund any payment you have made for the parts. This is because such items cannot be re-sold by us and the manufacturer will not accept return of the parts from us once they have been shipped or sent.
9. OUR RIGHTS TO END THE CONTRACT
9.1 We may end the contract if you break it. We may end the contract for a part and/or service and repair work at any time by writing to you if:
(a) you do not make any payment to us when it is due and you still do not make payment within 7 days of us reminding you that payment is due;
(b) you do not, within a reasonable time of us asking for it, provide us with information that is necessary for us to provide the parts, for example, vehicle mileage, registration and/or complete chassis number;
(c) you do not, within a reasonable time, collect the parts from us; or
(d) you do not, within a reasonable time, allow us access to your vehicle to supply the servicing and repair work; or
(e) you fail to return a courtesy vehicle we have supplied to you, or you incur parking fines or other motoring charges, fines or penalties in respect of a courtesy vehicle which you fail or refuse to pay within 7 days of us notifying you of such charges, fines or penalties;
(f) you are abusive, threatening or violent to our employees, staff or agents.
9.2 You must compensate us if you break the contract. If we end the contract in the situations set out in clause 9.1 we will refund any money you have paid in advance for parts and/or servicing and repair work we have not provided but we may deduct or charge you reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of your breaking the contract.
9.3 We may withdraw the part. We may write to you to let you know that we are going to stop providing the part. We will let you know at least 1 day in advance of our stopping the supply of the part and will refund any sums you have paid in advance for parts which will not be provided.
9.4 We may stop providing the servicing and repair work. We may write to you to let you know that we are going to stop providing the servicing and repair work. We will let you know at least 1 day in advance of our stopping the servicing and repair work and will refund any sums you have paid in advance for servicing and repair work which will not be provided.
9.5 Our lien (retaining possession) over your vehicle. We may exercise a lien over a vehicle (meaning that we will retain possession of your vehicle) which is on our premises if you do not pay us, or you fail or refuse to collect the vehicle and may charge you for storage costs at our usual garaging rate of £14.00 plus VAT per day. We will contact you to notify you that payment and/or collection of the vehicle is required. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or arrange collection within 14 days, we may end the contract and:
(a) exercise a lien over the vehicle and any property left in the vehicle until payment of our outstanding invoices has been made to us in full; or
(b) serve you with a notice under the Torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1977, requiring you to collect the vehicle and alerting you to the fact that if you fail to do so the vehicle (and any property left in the vehicle) will be sold and we shall be entitled to retain sums due to us (including storage costs at our garaging rate) from the sale proceeds.
10. IF THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE PART
10.1 How to tell us about problems. If you have any questions or complaints about the part, please contact us. You can telephone our customer service and repair work team at 01702 563 030 write to us at enquiries@toomey.uk.com. Alternatively, please speak to one of our staff in-store.
10.2 Summary of your legal rights. We are under a legal duty to supply parts and/or perform servicing and repair work that are in conformity with this contract. See the box below for a summary of your key legal rights in relation to the part and/or servicing and repair work. Nothing in these terms will affect your legal rights.
This is a summary of your key legal rights. These are subject to certain exceptions. For detailed information please visit the Citizens Advice website www.adviceguide.org.uk or call 03454 04 05 06.
If your product is goods, for example new parts or accessories for your vehicle, the Consumer Rights Act 2015 says goods must be as described, fit for purpose and of satisfactory quality. During the expected lifespan of your part your legal rights entitle you to the following:
• up to 30 days: if your goods are faulty, then you can get an immediate refund.
• up to six months: if your goods can't be repaired or replaced, then you're entitled to a full refund, in most cases.
• up to six years: if your goods do not last a reasonable length of time you may be entitled to some money back.
If your product is services, for example labour for fitting new parts to your vehicle, the Consumer Rights Act 2015 says:
• you can ask us to repeat or fix a service and repair work if it's not carried out with reasonable care and skill, or get some money back if we can't fix it.
• if you haven't agreed a price beforehand, what you're asked to pay must be reasonable.
• if you haven't agreed a time beforehand, it must be carried out within a reasonable time.
10.3 Your obligation to return rejected parts. If you wish to exercise your legal rights to reject parts you must either return them in person to where you bought them or post them back to us (if they are suitable for posting).
10.4 You are a consumer. As you are a consumer, any parts and/or servicing and repair works are provided to you strictly as a consumer and for domestic and private use. As such if you look to use these parts and/or serviced and repaired vehicles for any commercial or business purpose, we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.
11. WARRANTIES AND LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY
You shall be entitled (as far as we, Toomey Motor Group Limited, can secure) to the benefit of any warranty to which we are entitled as against the manufacturer of parts and/or servicing and repair work supplied.
12. PRICE AND PAYMENT
12.1 Where to find the price for the servicing and repair work and/or part. The price of the part (which includes VAT) will be the price set out in our price list in force at the date of your order unless we have agreed another price in writing on the Job Card or invoice if the order is for parts only. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of part advised to you is correct. However please see clause 12.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the part you order.
12.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the part, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the part in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
12.3 What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the parts and/or servicing and repair work we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the part's or service and repair work’s correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the part's or service and repair work’s correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated in our price list or Job Card, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract and refund you any sums you have paid.
12.4 When you must pay and how you must pay. We accept payment with all major debit and credit cards, save for American Express. When you must pay depends on what part you are buying:
(a) For goods, you must pay for the parts in advance and before you collect them.
(b) For servicing and repair work, you must make an advance payment of the full price of the servicing and repair work, before we start providing them.
12.5 We can charge interest if you pay late. If you do not make any payment to us by the due date we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 4% a year above the base lending rate of Barclays Bank Plc from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
12.6 What to do if you think an invoice is wrong. If you think an invoice is wrong, please contact us promptly to let us know. You will not have to pay any interest until the dispute is resolved. Once the dispute is resolved we will charge you interest on correctly invoiced sums from the original due date.
13. SUB- CONTRACTORS
We shall be entitled at our sole discretion to employ or make use of sub-contractors for all or part any part of the servicing and repair works, subject to exercising reasonable skill and care in the selection of sub-contractors, and us accepting liability for the servicing and repair work carried out, and materials and parts supplied by such sub- contractors.
14. AUTHORITY TO DRIVE VEHICLES
By engaging us for the supply of parts and/ or servicing and repair works on these terms, you hereby authorise us, along with our employees, agents and sub- contractors to drive your vehicle for the purposes of inspection, testing and repair on the public highway and elsewhere.
15. OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED BY YOU
15.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
15.2 We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the parts and/or servicing and repair work as summarised at clause 10.2.
15.3 When we are liable for damage to your property. If we are providing servicing and repair work and/or installing parts to your motor vehicle, we will make good any damage to your motor vehicle caused by us while doing so. However, we are not responsible for the cost of repairing any pre-existing faults or damage to your vehicle that we discover while providing the servicing and repair work.
15.4 We are not liable for loss of property or belongings left in a vehicle. Please ensure that you do not leave any property, items or belongings in a vehicle which is given to us for servicing or repairs. We are not responsible for loss or damage to property, items or belongings which you leave in a vehicle.
15.5 We are not liable for business losses. We only supply the parts and/or perform the servicing and repair work for domestic and private use.

17. OTHER IMPORTANT TERMS
17.1 We may transfer this agreement to someone else. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation. We will contact you to let you know if we plan to do this.

17.2 You need our consent to transfer your rights to someone else. You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these terms to another person if we agree to this in writing. However, you do not need our agreement to transfer the benefit of the manufacturer’s warranty (where applicable).

No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms, except as explained in clause 17.2 in respect of the manufacturer’s warranty (where applicable). Neither of us will need to get the agreement of any other person in order to end the contract or make any changes to these terms.
17.4 If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
17.5 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the parts, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
17.6 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the parts in the English courts. If you live in Scotland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the parts in either the Scottish or the English courts. If you live in Northern Ireland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the parts in either the Northern Irish or the English courts.
17.7 Alternative dispute resolution. Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court. If you are not happy with how we have handled any complaint, you may want to contact the alternative dispute resolution provider we use. You can submit a complaint to the Motor Ombudsman via their website at https://www.themotorombudsman.org/ . The Motor Ombudsman will not charge you for making a complaint and if you are not satisfied with the outcome you can still bring legal proceedings -

3.2 If we cannot accept your order. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and will not charge you for the vehicle.

Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that a device's display of the colours or the printed pictures in our brochure accurately reflects the colour of the vehicle. The vehicle may vary slightly from those images. Although we have made every effort to be as accurate as possible, sizes, weights, capacities, dimensions and measurements indicated on our website or in our catalogue or brochure may vary slightly where they have been altered by the manufacturer.

6.1 Minor changes to the vehicle. We may change the vehicle:
(a) to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements; and

6.2 More significant changes to the vehicle and these terms. In addition, as we informed you in the description of the vehicle in our brochure, catalogue or on our website, we may make the following changes to the vehicle, but if we do so we will notify you and you may then contact us to end the contract and receive a full refund before the changes take effect:
(a) In certain circumstances, we may advertise a vehicle for sale which is not in our ownership but is being sold by a manufacturer. We will inform you before you enter into a contract with us if this is the case. On rare occasions, when we attempt to purchase the vehicle from the manufacturer, it may no longer be available.

(a) we have refused to supply the vehicle;
(b) supply of the vehicle within the supply deadline was essential (taking into account all the relevant circumstances).
7.7 Setting a new deadline for supply. If you do not wish to treat the contract as at an end straight away, or do not have the right to do so under clause 7.6, you can give us a new deadline for supply, which must be reasonable, and you can treat the contract as at an end if we do not meet the new deadline.
7.8 Ending the contract for late supply. If you do choose to treat the contract as at an end for late supply under clause 7.6 or clause 7.7, you can cancel your order for any of the vehicle or reject the vehicle that has been delivered. After that we will refund any sums you have paid to us for the cancelled vehicle and its supply. If the vehicle has been delivered to you, you will have to return it to us or allow us to collect it, and we will pay the costs of this.

We may need certain information from you so that we can supply the vehicle to you, for example, specifications or modifications for the vehicle. We will contact you to ask for this information. If you do not give us this information within a reasonable time of us asking for it, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, we may either end the contract (see clause 9.1) or make an additional charge of a reasonable sum to compensate us for any extra work that is required as a result. We will not be responsible for supplying the vehicle late or not supplying any part of it if this is caused by you not giving us the information we need within a reasonable time of us asking for it.
7.12 Reasons we may suspend the supply of the vehicle to you. We may have to suspend the supply of the vehicle to:
(a) deal with technical problems or make minor technical changes;
(b) update the vehicle to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements;
(c) comply with any recall on vehicle, its parts or accessories required by a manufacturer;
(d) make changes to the vehicle as requested by you or notified by us to you (see clause 6).
7.13 Your rights if we suspend the supply of the vehicle. We will contact you in advance to tell you we will be suspending supply of the vehicle, unless the problem is urgent or an emergency. If we have to suspend the vehicle for longer than 30 days we will adjust the price so that you do not pay for the vehicle while it is suspended. You may contact us to end the contract for the vehicle if we suspend it, or tell you we are going to suspend it, in each case for a period of more than 30 days and we will refund any sums you have paid in advance for the vehicle in respect of the period after you end the contract.

8.4 Returning the vehicle after ending the contract. If you end the contract after the vehicle has been collected by, or delivered to, you, you must return it to us. If you are ending the contract because we have told you of an upcoming change to the vehicle or these terms, an error in pricing or description, a delay in supply due to events outside our control or because you are exercising your legal rights to end the contract because of something we have done wrong then we will pay the costs of return. In all other circumstances you must pay the costs of return.

Summary of your key legal rights
This is a summary of your key legal rights. These are subject to certain exceptions. For detailed information please visit the Citizens Advice website www.adviceguide.org.uk or call 03454 04 05 06.
The Consumer Rights Act 2015 says goods must be as described, fit for purpose and of satisfactory quality. During the expected lifespan of your the vehicle your legal rights entitle you to the following:
up to 30 days: if your goods are faulty, then you can get an immediate refund.
up to six months: if your goods can't be repaired or replaced, then you're entitled to a full refund, in most cases.
up to six years: if your goods do not last a reasonable length of time you may be entitled to some money back.
10.3 Your obligation to return rejected the vehicle. If you wish to exercise your legal rights to reject the vehicle you must return it in person to where you bought it.

11. PRICE AND PAYMENT
11.1 Where to find the price for the vehicle. The price of the vehicle (which includes VAT) will be the price set out in our price list in force at the date of your order unless we have agreed another price in writing. We use our best efforts to ensure that the price of the vehicle advised to you is correct. However please see clause 11.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the vehicle you order.
11.2 We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the vehicle, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the vehicle (including supply costs) in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
11.3 What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts the vehicle we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the vehicle's correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the vehicle's correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may terminate the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require you to return the vehicle at our expense.
11.4 When you must pay and how you must pay. We accept payment with all major debit and credit cards, except for American Express. You must pay:
(a) a deposit minimum of £250 for the vehicle when you place your order; and
(b) There is a maximum payment limit of £1,000 when paying with a credit card, personal and or business. This will include a business debit or credit card.
(c) the balance of the invoice total upon collection of the vehicle.
(d) Final balance can also be paid via bank transfer and BACS.
(e) We are apologised to inform the police of any payments over £10,000 in cash
11.5 We can charge interest if you pay late. If you do not make any payment to us by the due date we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 4% a year above the base lending rate of Barclays Bank Plc from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
11.6 What to do if you think an invoice is wrong. If you think an invoice is wrong please contact us promptly to let us know. You will not have to pay any interest until the dispute is resolved. Once the dispute is resolved we will charge you interest on correctly invoiced sums from the original due date.

13.1 We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but, except as set out in clause 13.2we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.

15.5 If you decide to cancel in accordance with this clause 14, you should return the vehicle to us at one of our dealerships at your own cost within 14 days of such cancellation and we will reimburse to you (by the method used to pay for the original transaction) the amount in relation to vehicles to which cancellation rights apply. Alternatively, if you wish us to collect the vehicle, we will do so subject to payment of an agreed collection fee. We will reimburse delivery charges made (if any).

Refunds will be made by cheque or direct bank transfer to the same account as the purchase price was paid from. Refunds will not be paid in cash. If you direct us to settle your finance (if applicable) on the vehicle, we will refund the required sum (providing the refund is sufficient for this purpose) and return to you any surplus funds.
15.7 If you exercise your right to cancel the vehicle within the 14 day period and have sold a used vehicle to us as part exchange for the vehicle, we may at our discretion either refund the sum attributed to the part exchange vehicle at the time the agreement was entered into, or return the part exchange vehicle to you, if it remains available.

No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms, except in respect of the manufacturer’s warranty (where applicable). Neither of us will need to get the agreement of any other person in order to end the contract or make any changes to these terms.

16.5 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the parts, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
16.6 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the parts in the English courts. If you live in Scotland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the parts in either the Scottish or the English courts.

(g) the Parts differ from the Parts Specification as a result of changes made to ensure they comply with applicable statutory or regulatory standards.
5.4 Except as provided in this clause 5, Toomey shall have no liability to the Customer in respect of the Parts' failure to comply with the warranty set out in clause 5.1.
5.5 The terms of these Conditions shall apply to any repaired or replacement Parts supplied by Toomey.
6. TITLE AND RISK
6.1 The risk in the Parts and/ or material supplied in the course of the Repair and Servicing Works shall pass to the Customer:

(b) in the case of material supplied in the course of the Repair and Servicing Works, when collected by the Customer.
6.2 Title to the Parts and/ or material supplied in the course of the Repair and Servicing Works shall not pass to the Customer until the earlier of:
(a) Toomey receives payment in full (in cash or cleared funds) for the Parts and any other Parts that Toomey has supplied to the Customer in respect of which payment has become due, in which case title to the Parts and/ or material supplied in the course of the Repair and Servicing Works shall pass at the time of payment of all such sums; and
(b) the Customer resells the Parts, and/ or material supplied in the course of the Repair and Servicing Works in which case title to the Parts shall pass to the Customer at the time specified in clause 6.4.
6.3 Until title to the Parts and/ or material supplied in the course of the Repair and Servicing Works has passed to the Customer, the Customer shall:
(a) store the Parts and/ or material supplied in the course of the Repair and Servicing Works separately from all other parts held by the Customer so that they remain readily identifiable as Toomey's property;
(b) not remove, deface or obscure any identifying mark or packaging on or relating to the Parts and/ or material supplied in the course of the Repair and Servicing Works;
(c) maintain the Parts and/ or material supplied in the course of the Repair and Servicing Works in satisfactory condition and keep them insured against all risks for their full price on Toomey's behalf from the date of delivery;

However, if the Customer resells the Parts and/ or material supplied in the course of the Repair and Servicing Works before that time:
(a) it does so as principal and not as Toomey’s agent; and
(b) title to the Parts and/ or material supplied in the course of the Repair and Servicing Works shall pass from Toomey to the Customer immediately before the time at which resale by the Customer occurs.
6.5 If before title to the Parts and/ or material supplied in the course of the Repair and Servicing Works passes to the Customer the Customer becomes subject to any of the events listed in clause 15.1(a) to clause 15.1(c), then, without limiting any other right or remedy Toomey may have:
(a) the Customer's right to resell Parts and/ or material supplied in the course of the Repair and Servicing Works or use them in the ordinary course of its business ceases immediately; and
(b) Toomey may at any time:

(a) without limiting or affecting any other right or remedy available to it, Toomey shall have the right to suspend performance of the Repair and Servicing Work until the Customer remedies the Customer Default, and to rely on the Customer Default to relieve it from the performance of any of its obligations in each case to the extent the Customer Default prevents or delays Toomey's performance of any of its obligations;
(b) Toomey shall not be liable for any costs or losses sustained or incurred by the Customer arising directly or indirectly from Toomey's failure or delay to perform any of its obligations as set out in this clause 9.2; and

10.3 In respect of Parts, Toomey shall invoice the Customer at the time the Order for Parts is placed by the Customer. In respect of Repair and Servicing Work only or Parts and Repair and Servicing Work, Toomey shall invoice the Customer on completion of the Repair and Servicing Work.

10.5 All amounts payable by the Customer under the Contract are exclusive of amounts in respect of value added tax chargeable from time to time (VAT). Where any taxable supply for VAT purposes is made under the Contract by Toomey to the Customer, the Customer shall, on receipt of a valid VAT invoice from Toomey, pay to Toomey such additional amounts in respect of VAT as are chargeable on the supply of the Repair and Servicing Work or Parts at the same time as payment is due for the supply of the Repair and Servicing Work or Parts.

Interest under this clause 10.6 will accrue each day at 4% a year above the Bank of England's base rate from time to time, but at 4% a year for any period when that base rate is below 0%.

12. DATA PROTECTION
12.1 Both parties will comply with all applicable requirements of the Data Protection Legislation. This clause 12 is in addition to, and does not relieve, remove or replace, a party's obligations or rights under the Data Protection Legislation. In this clause 12, Applicable Laws means (for so long as and to the extent that they apply to Toomey) the law of the European Union, the law of any member state of the European Union and/or Domestic UK Law; and Domestic UK Law means the UK Data Protection Legislation and any other law that applies in the UK.
12.2 The parties acknowledge that for the purposes of the Data Protection Legislation, the Customer is the controller and Toomey is the processor.
12.3 Without prejudice to the generality of clause 12.1, the Customer will ensure that it has all necessary appropriate consents and notices in place to enable lawful transfer of the personal data to Toomey for the duration and purposes of the Contract.
12.4 Without prejudice to the generality of clause 12.1, Toomey shall, in relation to any personal data processed in connection with the performance by Toomey of its obligations under the Contract:
(a) process that personal data only on the documented written instructions of the Customer unless Toomey is required by Applicable Laws to otherwise process that personal data. Where Toomey is relying on Applicable Laws as the basis for processing personal data, Toomey shall promptly notify the Customer of this before performing the processing required by the Applicable Laws unless those Applicable Laws prohibit Toomey from so notifying the Customer;
(b) ensure that it has in place appropriate technical and organisational measures, reviewed and approved by the Customer, to protect against unauthorised or unlawful processing of personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, personal data, appropriate to the harm that might result from the unauthorised or unlawful processing or accidental loss, destruction or damage and the nature of the data to be protected, having regard to the state of technological development and the cost of implementing any measures (those measures may include, where appropriate, pseudonymising and encrypting personal data, ensuring confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of its systems and Repair and Servicing Work, ensuring that availability of and access to personal data can be restored in a timely manner after an incident, and regularly assessing and evaluating the effectiveness of the technical and organisational measures adopted by it);
(c) ensure that all personnel who have access to and/or process personal data are obliged to keep the personal data confidential; and
(d) not transfer any personal data outside of the European Economic Area unless the prior written consent of the Customer has been obtained and the following conditions are fulfilled:
(i) the Customer or Toomey has provided appropriate safeguards in relation to the transfer;
(ii) the data subject (as defined in the Data Protection Legislation) has enforceable rights and effective legal remedies;
(iii) Toomey complies with its obligations under the Data Protection Legislation by providing an adequate level of protection to any personal data that is transferred; and
(iv) Toomey complies with reasonable instructions notified to it in advance by the Customer with respect to the processing of the personal data;
(e) assist the Customer, at the Customer's cost, in responding to any request from a data subject and in ensuring compliance with its obligations under the Data Protection Legislation with respect to security, breach notifications, impact assessments and consultations with supervisory authorities or regulators;

13.1 Each party undertakes that it shall not at any time disclose to any person any confidential information concerning the business, affairs, customers, clients or suppliers of the other party, except as permitted by clause 13.2.
13.2 Each party may disclose the other party's confidential information:
(a) to its employees, officers, representatives, subcontractors or advisers who need to know such information for the purposes of carrying out the party's obligations under the Contract.

14.6 Unless the Customer notifies Toomey that it intends to make a claim in respect of an event within the notice period, Toomey shall have no liability for that event. The notice period for an event shall start on the day on which the Customer became, or ought reasonably to have become, aware of its having grounds to make a claim in respect of the event and shall expire 6 months from that date. The notice must be in writing and must identify the event and the grounds for the claim in reasonable detail.
14.7 This clause 14 shall survive termination of the Contract.
15. TERMINATION
15.1 Without affecting any other right or remedy available to it, either party may terminate the Contract with immediate effect by giving written notice to the other party if:
(a) the other party takes any step or action in connection with its entering administration, provisional liquidation or any composition or arrangement with its creditors (other than in relation to a solvent restructuring), being wound up (whether voluntarily or by order of the court, unless for the purpose of a solvent restructuring), having a receiver appointed to any of its assets or ceasing to carry on business or, if the step or action is taken in another jurisdiction, in connection with any analogous procedure in the relevant jurisdiction;
(b) the other party suspends, or threatens to suspend, or ceases or threatens to cease to carry on all or a substantial part of its business; or
(c) the other party's financial position deteriorates to such an extent that in the terminating party's opinion the other party's capability to adequately fulfil its obligations under the Contract has been placed in jeopardy.
