Historic Automobile

Disputes arise from buying, selling, restoring and racing vintage, classic and sports cars. After a lifetime immersed in the world of vintage cars, Oliver recognises the issues that can arise:

• The title or provenance of a car.
• The sale and purchase of a car – the failure by a buyer or seller to do what they promised.
• Repairs and restoration work – issues over the quality of work or the price payable.
• Misrepresentation – a car transpires not to be what a seller told a buyer.
• Replica cars passing off as original.
• Disputes over age-related or personalised registration plates.
• Personal injuries and property damage as a result of accidents whether on the road or at sporting events.
• “You bend it, you mend it” gentlemen’s racing agreements.
• Disputes with agents acting for a buyer or a seller or both.
• Age and registration eligibility disputes.
