Forgot to say , it was only the next day when we changed our minds and contacted them first thing , they hardly had time to do any paperwork.
Solicitors cost Money and whilst I agree with you it depends on the size of the deposit, for me calling the legal advice (free within my RAC insurance) and a call to citizens advice (free). I constructed my own letter (free) and the dealer acted along with extended warranty of the repaired component the repair was around £2K so with guidance you can start and do this yourself nudging in the dealer in the direction of consumer legislation can be sufficient. If this doesn't work then go to the Solicitor.Go to a solicitor as soon as possible.

If the dealer did not provide T’s and C’s the dealer is at fault not the consumerI’d start by asking the dealer for a copy of the sale T & C’s. Without it you do not know what you signed up for.
At the time of purchase, did you even read them before picking up the pen.

This is an interesting conundrum, a salesman takes a deposit and does not provide terms and conditions, I used the term salesman rather than dealer as the salesman 'should' both verbally and in writing provide terms and conditions which a customer will sign. It sound like the OP has a receipt not an invoice and no contract terms etc.Not sure of that, so I don't know. What I do know, is you should read them and ask for a copy, before picking up the pen. If the OP went to a solicitor with this problem, they certainly would want to read them, which brings me back to my first post, I'd ask the dealer for a copy now.
Why do people come on here as newbies and ask a question only to disappear ? and miss out on some great information, which is what he was after!!
Far too much I've never put down more than £1000 and I've bought 3 new Hymers all factory orders. A deposit has to be an amount you are prepared to lose.When we ordered our PVC (named her Vee Vee.......Virtual Van, as that is all it is at the moment!) we paid £500 deposit. Once we had the order confirmed, by the manufacturer, we paid a further £4000 to the dealer.
I can see no reason to pay that much as a deposit hope it was by credit card its a lot to lose if the dealer goes bust.Far too much I've never put down more than £1000 and I've bought 3 new Hymers all factory orders. A deposit has to be an amount you are prepared to lose.
Exactly, CC won't help, only any good if the total price is under 30k.I can see no reason to pay that much as a deposit hope it was by credit card its a lot to lose if the dealer goes bust.
