Sold As Seen normally covers it.

Also seen, No warranty given or implied.

These days though, Id be very suprised if anyone had grounds for comeback with a private sale, regardless of what is on the receipt.

The sum of £ZZZ for BMW 7nn reg X111XXX.

Sold as seen

If poss, take a copy/scan it.


I think that, assuming it is a private sale, there is no comeback fpr the buyer anyway, but it is just as well to get it in writing

Watch out for Sold as Seen. I remember it being on the Trading Standards web site about an adudication which concluded that Sold as Seen was irrelevant even on a private sale.

You still have grounds for come back. There was a case of a trade sale where the consensus seemed to be that for a car two weeks is sufficient to spot a serious defect in a car. I think this is also on the Trading Standards site. (or was a few years back).

You can put down sold as seen though as most people don't know about it and I don't think its a problem unless of course you are selling it whilst hiding a known defect, which I doubt you are anyhows

If feeling really paranoid, put something along the lines of

Putting the time is a very good idea.

Good idea never thought of that. I once sold a calibra with no tax and the guy was caught bombing around in it later that day. What a hassle that was trying to sort it out. The guy admitted he had bought the car earlier that day but i was still chased for back tax.

Sold for spares or repair? Def no comebacks.
