Not that you are allowed to drive it with a failed MOT as the car is now deemed unroadworthy, it's just interesting to see if that's why he's worded it like that.

mr_mg 0 Posted June 26, 2017 It expired at the start of June and would have been canceled by the fail at the end of May as I understand it anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andymc1973 199 Posted June 26, 2017 i would guess his originall plan was to put a years test on it, its had no interest so he's sold it as it is, your saving grace is the advert states a years mot, he will either have to test it or refund you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trade vet 703 Posted June 26, 2017 High Mr MG. - The seller is a dickhead,he thought he was being clever.You certainly can't advertise a lovely car etc,then sell it for spares or repair only (even if it was for £100).Firstly,ask the dealer for an explanation,then request a full refund,plus your expenses and tell them to collect it.
