Cancellation Policy
BS Marson & Sons Ltd
At BS Marson & Sons Ltd, we aim to provide complete transparency and confidence when purchasing a vehicle. This Cancellation Policy explains your rights, our obligations, and the procedures for cancelling an order or returning a vehicle.
1. Cancellation of Vehicle Orders (In-Person Purchases)
When you place an order in person at our dealership, a binding contract is formed.
- Deposits: All deposits are non-refundable unless otherwise agreed in writing.
- Order Cancellations: If you choose to cancel your order after it has been placed, BS Marson & Sons Ltd reserves the right to retain your deposit and recover any reasonable costs incurred as a result of the cancellation.
- Special Orders: Vehicles ordered to specific customer requirements (e.g., factory builds or customised specifications) cannot be cancelled once the order has been submitted to the manufacturer.
2. Online & Distance Purchases – Deposits
For vehicles ordered online or at a distance, any deposit paid is fully refundable if you choose to cancel your order within the applicable 14-day cancellation period under the Consumer Contracts Regulations.
-
If you cancel before collection or delivery, your deposit will be refunded in full.
-
If you cancel after receiving the vehicle (but within 14 days), the deposit will be refunded as part of the total amount returned to you, minus any allowable deductions for usage or damage.
-
Refunds will be issued within 14 days of confirming cancellation (or after the vehicle is returned, if applicable).
This amendment applies only to online/distance-selling deposits. Deposits taken in person at the dealership remain non-refundable unless otherwise agreed in writing.
14-Day Right to Cancel
You may cancel your purchase within 14 days of receiving the vehicle, without giving any reason.
To exercise this right, you must notify us in writing using the contact details at the bottom of this page.
Conditions of Return
-
The vehicle must be returned in the same condition it was supplied, subject to fair usage.
-
You are responsible for any diminished value caused by handling the vehicle beyond what is necessary to establish its nature, characteristics, and functioning.
-
Any additional mileage driven during the 14-day period may be subject to a reasonable charge per mile.
-
You are responsible for the costs of returning the vehicle to our dealership unless otherwise agreed.
Refunds
Once the vehicle is returned and inspected, we will issue a refund within 14 days, minus any permitted deductions for usage or damage.
3. Cancellation of Finance Agreements
If your vehicle purchase includes a finance agreement:
-
You may have a separate right to withdraw from the finance contract within 14 days, as outlined by your lender.
-
Withdrawing from the finance agreement does not cancel your vehicle purchase. You will be required to pay the outstanding balance directly to BS Marson & Sons Ltd.
4. Collection and Delivery Charges
If your order involved delivery:
-
Delivery charges may be non-refundable if cancellation occurs after delivery has taken place.
-
If the vehicle is returned under the 14-day cancellation period, you are responsible for arranging and paying for its return, unless otherwise agreed.
