Cancellation Under the Distance Selling Regulations

Ordinarily we do not run an organised distance selling scheme.

However, due to the Coronavirus outbreak we need to support our valued customers by delivering your vehicle to your home.

If you have ordered and taken delivery of your vehicle without visiting our showroom and you are not buying the car in the course of your trade or business, the following cancellation clause applies:
You have 7 days to get to know your new vehicle and to make sure it suits you. If you change your mind just let us know in writing by post to: Junction 17 Group, 1 Kestrel Way, Eagle Business Park, Yaxley, Peterborough PE7 3GQ or in an email to enquiries@junction17cars.co.uk Your cancellation request must reach us by 5pm on the 14th day following delivery and we will come and collect the vehicle for a refund. We cannot accept a return of the car if it has been damaged, modified or altered from the condition it was delivered in. An excess mileage charge of £1 per mile for any mileage over 100 miles in those 14 days will apply. If you do change your mind you cannot use the car once you have notified us - but you must still tax and insure the vehicle until it is collected.



Your Cancellation Rights: Where you have paid for the car

1 You can cancel Your Order with us at any point before the Car is delivered or collected by contacting Junction 17 Cars Customer Support enquiries@junction17cars.co.uk or 01733 247 222.

2 Where You have paid for the Car on the Site Yourself, You have the cancellation rights set out in this section. Where You have entered into a third-party finance agreement through the Site, Your rights are slightly different because we are no longer supplying the Car to You and instead the Car is being provided to You by the finance provider. Your rights in this situation are explained in section 11 below.

3 After Delivery or Collection of the Car, under the Consumer Contract (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 You have the right to cancel Your Contract within 14 days after Delivery or Collection without giving any reason.

4 If You cancel Your Contract within the 14-day cancellation period, we will refund all payments received for the Car (including any amount You paid for Delivery). However, we are permitted by law to reduce Your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of the Car, for example, costs associated with mileage You have incurred on the Car and the costs to repair any damage that may have occurred during the period in which You were responsible for the Car.

5 You have a legal obligation to handle and take reasonable care of the Car while it is in Your possession. If You fail to comply with this obligation, we may have a right of action against You for compensation. If the value of the Car is diminished as a result of Your use, we may recover such diminished value from You either directly or by reducing the value of any refund due by that amount.

6 To cancel Your Contract under this section, You must inform us of Your decision to cancel by 5pm on the 14th day after Delivery or Collection of Your Car was accepted by You. This must be done by telephone by calling Junction 17 Cars Customer Support on 01733 247 222.

7 You will need to provide us with Your name, postal address, and where available, Your telephone number and email address.

8 Your cancellation will be effective from the point at which we pick up the Car.

9 We will aim to contact You within two days of receiving Your cancellation request, including to arrange pickup of Your Car. If You have not heard from us within this time, please contact Junction 17 Cars Customer Support on 01733 247 222 or enquiries@junction17cars.co.uk. You will be charged £250 for the pickup of Your Car unless You qualify for the 7-Day Money Back Guarantee.

10 If You will not be present at the address for pickup, You must contact Junction 17 Cars Customer Support by telephone on 01733 247 222 at least 24 hours prior to pickup to rearrange Your time at no additional cost.

11 If You need to rearrange pickup less than 24 hours prior to any scheduled pickup time, You will incur a further charge of £100.

12 Upon cancellation, the Car must:

- 12.1 be free of all financial charges other than the one created by this Contract;

- 12.2 be in the same condition You received it except for reasonable wear and tear or any mechanical problem that becomes evident after Delivery or Collection that was not caused by You;

- 12.3 be without damage or having been in an accident (otherwise we will be entitled to recover from You any loss in value of the Car as set out in sections 3 and 4 above); and

- 12.4 not have incurred more than 250 miles since Delivery or Collection otherwise we will charge You an excess mileage charge of £1.00 per mile for each mile above the 250 mile limit.

If You exercise Your legal right to cancel, You must promptly return the Car’s V5 log book to us and we will issue the refund as soon as possible once we receive the V5 log book but in any event within 14 days of us receiving the V5 log book.

13 We will issue Your refund, in accordance with section 9 above or this section 10, using the payment method which You used to pay for the Car save that any refunds for Part Exchange Cars (defined in section 13.7 below) will be undertaken via bank transfer. In the event that Your payment is refunded but we subsequently discover a defect sustained during Your period of ownership we reserve the right to debit a compensatory amount from Your credit or debit card

Please note that this section is not intended to be a full description of all Your legal rights. Full details of Your rights can be obtained, in the UK, from Your local Citizens’ Advice Bureau or Your Local Authority’s Trading Standards Office.



Your Right of Withdrawal: Where you have entered into a finance agreement to pay for the car

1 If You have entered into a finance agreement to pay for the Car You will be given a right to change Your mind and withdraw from the finance agreement under s66A of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 without giving any reason. The exact terms of the right to withdraw will be set out in the finance agreement itself. If You exercise the right, it will bring the finance agreement with the finance provider to an end. It does not automatically mean that You can pull out of buying the Vehicle but Junction 17 Cars will allow You to exercise the 7-Day Money Back Guarantee on the terms set out in the 7 Day Money Back Guarantee above.

2 If You wish to exercise the 7-Day Money Back Guarantee You must at the same time tell Your finance provider that You wish to withdraw from the finance agreement by calling them or writing to them on the contact details provided in the finance agreement.

If You wish to exercise these rights You must do so within 14 days after Delivery or Pickup. On pickup of the Car we will repay to the finance provider the Finance Amount. However, as set out in the section above, we will charge You for picking up the Car and an amount to reflect any reduction in the value of the Car, for example, costs associated with mileage You have incurred on the Car and the costs to repair any damage that may have occurred during the period in which You were responsible for the Car.
