VIC test

[mwatts_tci]

I sold a car on emaay, old thing, did run, but MOT ran out two days after i sold it, £250 quid kinda thing you know, anyway the guy collected it, paid cash and off he want, pretty cheap, got it off the driveway. That was over a month ago, now i get an email saying that I didnt tell him it was in a crash, and that it was a write off and needs a VIC check so he wants his money back. I have never heard of a VIC test but did some reading up on it, and apprently in order for me to need a VIC test I would have to surrender my V5 to the DVLA, I never did this, and they never asked for it. The car was in a small bump but as it was so old, the work on the car was going to be £1200 quid and the list price was only £1100, so it never got done. DO you think he is trying to pull a fast one as i Never sent the V5 to anyone, so I dont see how it could need a VIC test? I have said that I would pay for the VIC test for him so far, but he hasnt responded. Any ideas? WHat is a VIC test involve?

Sold as seen......


Don't think he's really got any right to ask for the money, far too late and he bought it as seen. End of.

Well thats what i thought, ebay sent me an email saying he had put in a complaint saying that i had witheld information, buyt as it was not serious enough they were not dealing with it. I think il give him the 36 quid for the VIC test and then see what he says, because i really didnt know, and the money il give back to him should just keep him sweet, I dont think he left v.good feedback!
