How can I get my lost deposit back?

Last week I agreed to buy a used Skoda Yeti. I paid a £1000 deposit and signed a form which seems to make the deposit non-refundable. I've now decided that I don't want a Skoda Yeti, but they won't return my deposit. Is there anything I can do?

No. You entered into a contract and paid a deposit. The best thing you can now do is fulfil that contract.
