Hi All
I bought a new Audi A5 under a HP agreement in 2012, the final lumps sum payment is due in March 2016.
I have just discovered my engine IS affected by the VW emissions cheat device.
As I understand it, the finance company is liable as well as VW, will be quicker and easier to deal with the finance company than join a class action against VW
Under the CCA 1974, can I claim against my HP finance company on the grounds that:
1. The vehicle was not as described (i.e. emissions etc. not as quoted)
2. the vehicle is not fit for purpose (emissions cheat device fitted (knowingly) and Mileage, emissions, fuel consumption not as quoted)
Is there any template for this type of letter?
Any advice would be most welcome as a £10K final payment is due soon,
thanks
John
