Car purchased on Contract Hire - Help

[Sonea1]

Hi,

 

I am new to this forum, I purchased a car from Renault in October 2010 on a 2 year contract hire. At the time I was 8 months pregnant and travelled to Chester in order to complete all of the paperwork. After being there all day and the Renault sales team having made a few mistakes, the car agreement was never signed. They then delivered the car to me whilst I was at hospital and the agreement was signed at the hospital. I have since been told that a Renault agreement signed off Renault premises is not valid.

 

Could anyone shed some light on this, as I am due to give it back In October and if there is anything I can do, any information would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks

So what exactly is the problem?

Is it a legal agreement if signed off Renault premises? Can I do anything to keep the car?

So you are trying to subvert, get out of the agreement you have entered into!!!

if a dealer tried to do this we would come down on them like a ton of bricks!!!

IMO the Contract would stand if tested in court, I do not think a judge would have much sympathy with you.

Any contract involving CCA signed off premises, gives you 14 days to cancel the agreement ( and yes they should of told you that at the time ).

Good luck with that.

If there's a balloon payment option at the end of the contract and you pay it, I would say yes.

 

To be honest you are asking a question which is going to generate different answers and without going through the contact with a fine tooth comb, I very much doubt you will get the correct answer here. You would need to speak to a solicitor in my opinion and let him see your paper work.

If it was "Contract hire" it would be a business agreement and could be signed anywhere.

Do you want to keep the car without paying for it?? Do not really understand what you want to do!
