What are the purchaser's rights when purchasing a second hand car and finding a significant fault within the first few weeks?
It depends whether you bought it from a trade seller or just an ordinary member of the public. If you purchased from a trade seller you can refer to the sale Of Goods Act and claim damages or even reject the car and claim your money back based on the Sale of Goods Act.
If you bought from a non-trade seller we are afraid that there is nothing you can do.
