We shall not pass Your information to third party organisations. Your subscription preferences can be updated at any time.

5.      Basis of Sale

5.1     The description of the Goods and/or Services on the Website and in our catalogues, brochures or other form of advertisement does not constitute a contractual offer to sell the Goods and/or Services. When an Order has been submitted by You, We can reject it for any reason, although We will try to tell You the reason without delay. Reasons include but are not limited to: Goods being out of stock, unexpected resource limitations, identification of an error in the price or description of a product or because We are unable to meet a delivery deadline You have specified.

5.2     The Order process is set out on the Website. Each step allows You to check and amend any errors before submitting the Order. It is Your responsibility to check that You have used the ordering process correctly.

5.3     A Contract will be formed for the sale of Goods and/or Services ordered only when You receive an email from Us confirming the Order (the “Order Confirmation”). You must ensure that the Order Confirmation is complete and accurate and inform Us immediately of any errors. We are not responsible for any inaccuracies in the Order placed by You. By placing an Order, You agree to Us giving You confirmation of the Contract by means of an email with all information in it. You will receive the Order Confirmation within a reasonable time after making the Contract, but in any event not later than the delivery of any Goods supplied under the Contract.

6.2     The price of the Goods and/or Services (which, unless otherwise stated, excludes VAT) will be the price quoted to You or stated on the Website.

6.3     It is possible Goods and/or Services we sell may be incorrectly priced. We typically check prices before accepting Your Order so that, where the correct price of the Goods and/or Services at Your Order date is less than Our stated price at Your Order date, We will charge the lower amount. If the Goods’ or Services’ correct price at Your Order date is higher than the price stated to You, We will contact You for Your instructions before We accept Your order. If We accept and process Your Order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could reasonably have been recognized by You as a mistake, We may end the Contract, refund You any sums You have paid and require the return of any Goods provided to You.

6.4     We accept payment by all major debit and credit cards (including Visa, Mastercard and American Express), Amazon Pay and PayPal. Unless We agree credit terms with You in writing, You must pay for the Goods and/or Services before We dispatch them to You.

6.5.1    30 days end of month; 

6.5.2     in full and in cleared funds to a bank account nominated in writing by Us, and time for payment shall be of the essence of the contract; and

6.5.3    if You do not make any payment to Us by the due date We may charge interest to You on the overdue amount. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay Us interest together with any overdue amount.

6.6     If You believe there to be an error in an invoice please contact Us promptly to advise Us. You will not have to pay any interest until the dispute is resolved. Once the dispute is resolved We will, if applicable, charge You interest on correctly invoiced sums from the original due date.

6.7     Please be aware that import duties and taxes may apply in countries outside of the United Kingdom. All duties and taxes are set by the Customs Authority of the destination country. Please note that it will be the responsibility of the customer to communicate promptly with the importing agent and pay all import duties and taxes immediately on request. Failure to do so may result in delay and/or return of the goods.

7.      Surcharges

7.1     Where We supply You with Goods with an exchange-part surcharge applied, we will refund the surcharge amount to You provided that We receive from you within 28 days of the date of delivery of the relevant Goods a corresponding like-for-like part (“Exchange Part”) in a reasonable and serviceable condition and in accordance with our requirements including any relevant surcharge policy made known to You (“Surcharge Conditions”).

7.2     We calculate Our exchange-part surcharges on the basis that We will receive an Exchange Part from You which fulfils Our Surcharge Conditions. Accordingly, if in Our sole discretion and acting reasonably, We determine that the Exchange Part provided by You does not meet Our Surcharge Conditions then We may not refund the surcharge or may reduce it accordingly in which case We will notify You and You will have the opportunity to collect or arrange collection of the Exchange Part You provided to Us.

7.3     Any surcharge due to You will be refunded within 30 days of Us receiving the corresponding part from You and made by the same method You used to pay.

8.      Delivery

8.1     The costs of delivery will be as advised to You before You place Your Order.

8.2     We will deliver the Goods, to the Delivery Location by the time or within the agreed period or, failing any agreement, without undue delay and, in any event, not more than 30 days after the day on which the Contract is entered into.

8.3     In any case, regardless of events beyond our control, if We do not deliver the Goods on time, You can (in addition to any other remedies) treat the Contract at an end if:

8.3.1    We have refused to deliver the Goods, or if delivery on time is essential taking into account all the relevant circumstances at the time the Contract was made, or You said to Us before the Contract was made that delivery on time was essential; or

8.3.2    after We have failed to deliver on time, You have specified a later period which is appropriate to the circumstances and We have not delivered within that period.

8.4     If You treat the Contract at an end, We will return all payments made under the Contract.

8.5     If You are entitled to treat the Contract at an end, but do not do so, You are not prevented from cancelling the Order for any Goods or rejecting Goods that have been delivered and, if you do this, We will return all payments made under the Contract for any such cancelled or rejected Goods. If the Goods have been delivered, You must return them to Us or allow Us to collect them from You and We will pay the costs of this.

8.6     If You have requested to collect the Goods from Our premises (“Customer Collection”), You can collect them from Us at any time during Our working hours after We have notified You that the Goods are ready for collection.

8.7     If no one is available at Your address to take delivery and the Goods cannot be posted through Your letterbox, the relevant courier will leave You a note informing You of how to rearrange delivery or collect the Goods.

8.8     If You do not collect the Goods from Us as arranged or if, after a failed delivery to You, You do not re-arrange delivery or collect them from the relevant courier and the Goods are returned to Us, We will contact You for further instructions and may charge you for storage costs and any further delivery costs. If despite Our efforts We are unable to contact You or re-arrange delivery or collection then We may end the Contract and charge You reasonable compensation for Our costs and/or losses.

8.9     You agree We may deliver the Goods in instalments if We suffer a shortage of stock or other genuine and fair reason, subject to the above provisions and provided You are not liable for extra charges.

8.10   If You or Your nominee fail, through no fault of Ours, to take delivery of the Goods at the Delivery Location, We may charge the reasonable costs of storing and redelivering them.

8.11   The Goods will become Your responsibility from the completion of delivery or Customer Collection. You must, if reasonably practicable, examine the Goods before accepting them.

9.      Risk and Title

9.1     Risk of damage to, or loss of, any Goods will pass to You when the Goods are delivered to You.

9.2     You do not own the Goods until We have received payment in full. If full payment is overdue or a step occurs towards your bankruptcy/insolvency, We can choose, by notice to cancel any delivery and end any right You may have to Goods still owned by Us.

10.    Withdrawal, Returns and Cancellation

10.1   You can withdraw the Order by telling us before the Contract is made, if you simply wish to change your mind and without giving us a reason, and without incurring any liability.

10.2   This is a Distance Contract (as defined below) which has the cancellation rights (“Cancellation Rights”) set out below. These Cancellation Rights, however, do not apply to a contract for the following goods (with no others) in the following circumstances:

10.2.1  goods that are made to your specifications or are clearly personalized;

10.2.2  goods which are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly.

10.3   Also, the Cancellation Rights for a Contract cease to be available in the following circumstances: in the case of any Sales Contract, if the goods become mixed inseparably (according to their nature) with other items after delivery.

11.    Consumer’s right to cancel

11.1   If You are a Consumer You can cancel the Contract within 14 days (“Cancellation Period”) without giving any reason.

11.2   The Cancellation Period will expire after 14 days from the day on which You acquire, or a third party, other than the carrier indicated by You, acquires physical possession of the last of the Goods.

11.3   To exercise the right to cancel, You must inform Us of Your decision to cancel this Contract by a clear statement setting out Your decision (e.g., a letter sent by post or email). You can use the attached model cancellation form, but it is not obligatory. In any event, You must be able to show clear evidence of when the cancellation was made, so You may decide to use the model cancellation form.

11.4   To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for You to send Your communication concerning Your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.

Effects of cancellation in the cancellation period

11.5   Except as set out below, if You cancel this Contract, We will reimburse to You all payments received from You and the original cost of the least expensive standard delivery within the UK, but excluding the costs of other types of delivery (this means that if You have requested a delivery method that is more expensive than the least expensive standard delivery within the UK or it is a delivery outside the UK, then You will only be reimbursed as for the least expensive standard delivery within the UK).

Deduction for Goods supplied

11.6   We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any Goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by You (i.e., handling the Goods beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Goods: e.g., it goes beyond the sort of handling that might be reasonably allowed in a shop). This is because You are liable for that loss and, if that deduction is not made, You must pay Us the amount of that loss.

Timing of reimbursement

11.7   If We have not offered to collect the Goods, We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than:

11.7.1  14 days after the day We receive back from You any Goods supplied, or

11.7.2  (if earlier) 14 days after the day You provide evidence that You have sent back the Goods.

11.8   If We have offered to collect the Goods or if no Goods were supplied, We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which We are informed about Your decision to cancel this Contract.

11.9   We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as You used for the initial transaction, unless You have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, You will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement.

Returning Goods

11.10 If You have received Goods in connection with the Contract which You have cancelled, You must send back the Goods or hand them over to Us at Units C & D The Pavilions,  2 East Road,  London, SW19 1UW without delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which You communicate to Us Your cancellation of this Contract. The deadline is met if You send back the Goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You agree that You will have to bear all the costs of returning the Goods.

11.11 For the purposes of these Cancellation Rights, these words have the following meanings:

11.11.1 “Distance Contract”  means a contract concluded between a trader and a consumer under an organized distance sales or service-provision scheme without the simultaneous physical presence of the trader and the consumer, with the exclusive use of one or more means of distance communication up to and including the time at which the contract is concluded; and

11.11.2 “Sales Contract” means a contract under which a trader transfers or agrees to transfer the ownership of goods to a consumer and the consumer pays or agrees to pay the price, including any contract that has both goods and services as its object.

12.     Our right to cancel

12.1   IntroCar may cancel Your Order at any time with immediate effect by giving You written notice if:

12.1.1  You do not pay Us when you should under clause 6. Cancellation does not affect Our right to charge You interest under clause 6; or

12.1.3  You are subject to an Insolvency Event; or

18.2   If IntroCar fails to insist that You perform any of Your obligations under these Terms and Conditions, or if IntroCar do not enforce Our rights against You, or if IntroCar delays in doing so, that will not mean that IntroCar have waived Our rights against You and will not mean that You do not have to comply with those obligations. If IntroCar do waive a default by You, we will only do so in writing, and that will mean that IntroCar will automatically waive any later default by You.
