My wife has agreed to buy a Skoda Citigo Elegance ex-demo and has paid a deposit of £500. The car was advertised on an official Volkswagen / Skoda site as available on 11 October, but the dealer says this was an error and he should not be selling the car until 5 December. We have agreed delivery on 26 October, but the Skoda dealer says he cannot release the V5C to us until 5 December. On reflection we think we would be unwise to accept this arrangement, and that we should have the log book when paying the purchase money - or cancel the deal and ask for the refund of the deposit as we are not willing to wait until 5 December.
