Motor Vehicles Lack of legal value of the sales clauses as is or of non-guaranteed mileage

You are interested in buying a second-hand vehicle (car – motorbike – motorhome – truck – plane – boat – etc. …)

But the advertisement or the sales document (contract – invoice) includes a clause stipulating that the vehicle is sold as is or with an unsecured mileage. You wonder about the scope of this clause and you fear that in the event of problems or disorders, or discovery of a mileage not corresponding to that which is registered, you could not ask for the guarantee of your seller.

Do not worry. These clauses have no legal effect.

If your vehicle reveals a disorder not related to age or wear, and which is of such importance that you did not buy it, or offered it for a lower price, you could turn against your seller. Depending on the case, you will ask him to cancel the sale or reduce the price. And if your seller is a professional or if he knew the defect, you will demand all damages resulting from your purchase.
