Hi there, I bought a car last Tuesday it is a N Reg honda prelude, there was 2 ads on the internet and both ads said this car had a V-Tech engine. I went to look at the car which wasa good 70 miles away from my house. I liked the car and was happy with the condition of it so i purchased it for £700 and drove it home. On friday i took it to my frined who is a mechanic to make sure it was all save and road worthy and he told me that the engine was not a v-tech engine at all, and is just a 2.2i. If i had known this i would not of even gone to see the car.

I contacted the Man i bought the car off saying I owuld like to bring the car back as It is not the car i thought i was buying and he is just putting me off. Can i take him to a small claims court to get my money back. I do not want the car as it is not the car I had saved my hard earned cash for. I feel totally ripped off i have since found a seller that has the exact car I want which i thought I was buying with this car. But can not purchase it till I get my money back.

Do I legally have a leg to stand on. I have both adverts that states it is a 2.2i V-Tech.

Thanks

Emma
