Garage is refusing to refund me for a faulty car - whats steps should I take?
I bought a car from a garage, which I later discovered was faulty. I left the car with the garage for agreed repairs. No repair was done, so after 10 weeks asked for money back - to which they refused. I transferred the registration to garage through DVLA and cancelled insurance. Have a court judgement stating he owes me the money. What steps can I take to find out if they have sold the car as I assume it still belongs to me?

On gaining the CCJ what you should do is apply for a High Court Sheriff's order which costs about £70. That is much more effective than bailiffs because then the debtor cannot make a further application to court. When they visit him he either has to pay up or get his property seized.
