Clearly no use to me personally over in Holland, but nonetheless a very concise and clear explanation of UK law for the majority. Good to know. Thanks, Pete.
Bit different to Norway, reading the 'statutory statements' included in ads for a ZT260 dealer-advertised and now an R75V8 currently for private sale. Apparently under law a dealer in Norway has to give a full guarantee for 5 years, and a private seller 2, on all second hand vehicles. That carries a very broad definition too. You can get a refund " ... if the car is in worse condition than you as the buyer had reason to expect, based on the car's age, mileage and information you have received". No wonder second-hand cars cost an arm and a leg there.
