Hello guys,

i bought a 2012 fiat 500 in October 2019 from a dealer in London.

now i am looking to sell the car and found out that the car was recorded as stolen and recovered with a minor damage (now repaired, the info is from Vcheck) in August 2019 that is just before i purchased.

and the dealer is insisting that he had no idea as the HPI provided by AutoTrader is clear (i dont know why) and AutoTrader is now blocking me to write any reviews.

but he had sent me this service note that is dated in July 2019 billed to the dealer which clearly proves his ownership - so i assume he should not have known unless he faked the service note.

He has agreed to buy this car back from me for £4500, (i bought it for £6300) but he seems that he decided not to as he is not answering my email since yesterday.

i will wait for him until end of this week, but if he doesn't get back to me, what can i do from here?

i am thinking of reporting to the police, finance ombudsman, and trading standards. anything else?

also do i have to let my insurance company?

please advise. many thanks.
