>>provided you have not misrepresented any aspect of the vehicle there is no comeback for the purchaser.
Also provided the vehicle is roadworthy.

If the vehicle is unroadworthy, then you can have your money back.

I was under the impression that the law had recently changed to cover private car sales and that you now have to give some sort of gaurantee whether you like or not.Pretty difficult to enforce though I would have thought.

Private sale - no comeback unless you lied.
Words are "Sold as Seen" surely?

No. Read the unroadworthy vehicles link. They are insistent that if your 'sold as seen for spares/repairs' is to have any value then you are required to make sure that the purchaser trailers his new car away.

But not unroadworthy.
If I sell a car with a valid and recent MoT certificate, it is presumably roadworthy. If I am asked a question such as "....are there any major problems I should be aware of?" and I answer no, then it is fraud, if I know that that there is. But, if I am not aware, then surely, no problem with saying 'sold as seen'?

The Latin means "Buyer Beware".
