I bought a 2nd and car from a well established garage in London. I then had the police seize the vehicle from me when I returned home, as it had a stolen engine, gearbox and wheels!

The guy who part exchanged the vehicle had stolen another car and fitted these to it, he is currently in custody and has a court case at the end of Aug. So it wasnt the garage that did this.

I have told the police I want nothing to do with the car, but now need to go down the route of getting my money back from the garage. I have been told by the police not to contact them, this was 2 weeks ago.

I need to start the process to see if i can get my money back, but dont want to get in trouble with the law, any advice on what I can do? I've tried contacting the police everyday and never get any calls back, so they arent really helping that much!

Thanks
