ADVERTISING TERMS & CONDITIONS

Please read these Conditions carefully as they govern the provision of a digital advertising package by us to you. We may modify these Conditions from time to time and you should therefore ensure that you review these Conditions regularly.

In these Conditions, “we”, “us” or “our” means Fourwheelsshop Limited. When we refer to Four Wheels this includes the website located at www.fourwheelsshop.co.uk (“Fourwheelsshop Website”), and all other Fourwheelsshop platforms including mobile and tablet and the Fourwheelsshop Apps owned and operated by us.

These Conditions apply to any adverts that are placed, renewed and/or amended until that advert expires or is amended or renewed.

1. OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU

  1. These Conditions apply to any advert for the sale of a vehicle that is placed on Fourwheelsshop by a private advertiser and together with all other policies and terms posted on the Fourwheelsshop Website, set out the terms on which we enter into a contract with you to provide you with access to our platforms and services.
  2. By placing an advert with us, you are deemed to have accepted these Conditions.
  3. Each time we accept a request from you to place an advert on Fourwheelsshop, a separate severable contract is formed between you and us which is subject to these Conditions.

2. PLACING AN ADVERT

When you place an advert on Fourwheelsshop, you will be given a username and password which you are responsible for keeping secure. Fourwheelsshop will not be liable to you if you fail to keep your username and password safe. Unless caused by our negligence, we will not be liable for any loss you might suffer if a third party gains unauthorised access to your account. 

You agree that the information supplied with your registration will be truthful, accurate and complete. You also agree that you will not attempt to register in the name of any other individual nor will you adopt any username which is offensive. All personal information supplied by you as part of the registration process will be protected and used in accordance with the terms of our Privacy Policy.

Before you confirm that you would like to submit your advert, we will use details sourced from the Motor Insurance Anti-Fraud and Theft Register (MIAFTR), operated by Insurance Database Services Limited, to carry out a check to see whether the vehicle you wish to advertise has ever been written off (“Write-off Check”).

We do not permit the advertising of CAT A or CAT B vehicles on Fourwheelsshop and will not accept advertisements for vehicles that are determined by the Write-off Check to be in these categories. If the results of a Write-off Check determine that the vehicle is in CAT C or CAT D, the advert may be accepted but will include a statement advising of its write-off status.

Links to information about what CAT C and CAT D means will be provided within the advert. You will be informed of the vehicle’s write-off status before placing the advert. If you no longer wish to proceed with the advert, you should not submit it. You can find more information about CATs A, B, C and D at: Insurance Categories.

Fourwheelsshop has a partnership with Experian Limited which allows a potential buyer to purchase a vehicle history check on the vehicle you are advertising. If a potential buyer wishes to purchase a vehicle history check on the advertised vehicle, there is a link made available on your advert which, when clicked on, transfers the potential buyer to a website hosted by Experian Limited where the vehicle history check can be ordered. 

To facilitate this process, Fourwheelsshop will automatically disclose the vehicle registration number (as provided by you to Fourwheelsshop) to Experian Limited to enable Experian Limited to provide a vehicle history check for the advertised vehicle to any potential buyer who orders one through this process. 

Fourwheelsshop does not directly disclose the vehicle registration number to any potential buyer (except to the extent it features in any material submitted by you as part of the advert). However, if a potential buyer purchases a vehicle history check from Experian Limited having clicked on the link in your advert in accordance with the above, the vehicle registration mark will be made available to such potential buyer by Experian Limited as part of the vehicle history check report. Please do not submit your advert if you do not wish the vehicle registration mark to be used in this way.

If we accept your advert, whilst we cannot give any guarantees regarding timescales, we aim to process and publish adverts supplied online within 24 hours of receipt.

Adverts placed may appear on all Fourwheelsshop platforms, including desktop, mobile and tablet, and all third party social media platforms on which Fourwheelsshop are active, and may also feature on the trade-to-trade Smart Buying platform (operated by Fourwheelsshop) and other third party partner sites. To find out more about our partner sites, visit Sell My Car.

As soon as your advert has been accepted for publication, a confirmation email will be sent to you explaining that the advert has gone live on Fourwheelsshop and you will be given a unique identification number in respect of your advert. In the event that an advert has been rejected for publication, we will attempt to contact you to explain why your advert has been rejected. 

In the event that we reject the advert prior to publishing, no charge will be incurred by you. Please note that no contract will be deemed to exist between you and us until we have sent you a confirmation email.

 If you purchase an ‘Advertised until sold’ package, your advert will be published for a ten-week period. At the end of each ten-week period, you will be entitled to continuously re-book your advert for further ten-week periods for free, and you can do this as many times as you like, until your vehicle is sold (provided that there is no break in advertising). 

During each ten-week period, we will contact you by email after eight weeks to check whether your vehicle has been sold. If you notify us that your vehicle has not been sold, we will re-book your advert for free for a further ten-week period (commencing immediately after the current ten-week period). If you notify us that your vehicle has been sold, we will delete your advert. 

If we do not hear back from you, we will attempt to contact you again, by email, at the end of the current ten-week period. If we do not hear back from you within six weeks of us sending our second email, we will assume that you do not wish to re-book and delete your advert. 

If we delete your advert as set out in this clause, there will be a break in advertising and you will lose the ability to rebook the advert for free under the ‘Advertised until sold’ package. If you wish to rebook the advert, after it has been deleted, you will be charged to do so.

3. ADVERT CONTENT GUIDELINES

4. OUR RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS

We shall provide the advertising service with reasonable care and skill in a professional and timely manner. However, you acknowledge and accept that it is technically impossible to guarantee that Fourwheelsshop will be continuously available online or to guarantee the corruption free or error free transfer of an advert to Fourwheelsshop.

From time to time, we will need to carry out maintenance on our equipment and systems, and we shall use our reasonable endeavours to ensure that, in so doing, minimum disruption to any adverts is caused.

We will use reasonable endeavours to remedy faults or errors on Fourwheelsshop as soon as possible. [You acknowledge and accept that once a fault or error has been reported to us, it may take up to 48 hours for us to investigate and rectify the problem].

We do not monitor or control and shall not be responsible for the content of your advert which you agree is your sole responsibility. Accordingly, you shall be responsible for any losses, expenses or other costs incurred by us caused by an untrue statement or inaccurate or unlawful content.

We reserve the right to refuse to publish any advert without reason and to classify, edit and delete an advert at our sole discretion so as to: comply with legal or moral obligations placed on you or us; avoid infringing third party rights, the British Code of Advertising Practice and all other codes under the general supervision of the Advertising Standards Authority and/ or any relevant legislation; respond to any complaints; correct typographical errors or technical inaccuracies that may appear from time to time; and for any other technical and/ or quality reasons. Where possible, we will attempt to contact you to inform you of these changes prior to publication and/or edit.

We may at any time remove any or all of the materials from the advert which in our opinion are unlawful or are in breach of these Conditions.

We may at any time vary the technical specifications of Fourwheelsshop (or any parts of them) for operational reasons.

5. CHARGES AND PAYMENT

The cost of placing an advert on Fourwheelsshop depends on the advertising package you select and all prices are quoted on Fourwheelsshop. All prices are inclusive of VAT.

We have the right to change our advertising rates at any time and for any reason but any revised rates shall not apply to any adverts placed with us before publication of the revised rates.

All adverts must be pre-paid prior to publication.

Where payment is taken through Fourwheelsshop, we will refer you to a dedicated commerce provider who will take payment via a secure sever (SSL) connection to ensure the safety of your payment online. Payment can be made using Visa, MasterCard or Maestro. Any cards used for payment must be registered in the UK to be accepted. Whilst every effort is made to ensure the safety of your credit card transaction, we cannot and do not accept liability for any loss or damage incurred as a result of using the secure payment mechanism.

6. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

In respect of any materials which you supply to us (“Materials”), you grant us a non-exclusive, irrevocable, perpetual and royalty free licence to use such Materials for any purpose. You confirm that neither you nor any other person will assert any moral rights in or relating to the Materials referred to above against us or any third party.

You agree that all intellectual property rights (including, without limitation, copyright, trademarks, database rights and design rights (whether registered or not)) in any copy, text, artwork, photographs, videos or other materials which we have created and/or in any way altered for you in connection with the advert shall belong to us absolutely.

7. OUR RIGHT TO TERMINATE THE CONTRACT

We shall be entitled to terminate the contract with you and remove an advert at any time. We will provide you with notice of the removal of your advert. In such circumstances we shall provide a refund to you for the unexpired part of the advertising term unless we have terminated the contract pursuant to Condition 7.2 below.

We may immediately suspend or terminate the contract and remove an advert where:

  1.  you breach a term of these Conditions;
  2. you breach any of the provisions of Condition 3.8;
  3. we reasonably suspect that you are not complying with the provisions of Condition 3.8;
  4. you place an advert at our bargain rate but then price your vehicle above the vehicle price limit to which the bargain rate applies;
  5. You place an advert for one vehicle and then modify adverts details to sell multiple vehicles;
  6. You are a trade seller masquerading as a private seller;
  7. if in our reasonable opinion, we have reason to believe that you have been abusive to our staff or we receive a complaint from a third party regarding your conduct in the sale of an advertised vehicle; and/ or
  8. any competent law enforcement or compliance authority instructs, advises or makes a recommendation to us to take down any of your adverts and/or suspend the delivery of services to you.
  9. If we remove an advert in accordance with Condition 7.2 above, you will not be entitled to any refund for the advert in question.

8. YOUR RIGHT TO CANCEL

Please note that the digital advertising package provided by Fourwheelsshop is a bespoke package, tailored to your requirements and is created instantaneously. By submitting your advert to us for publication, you consent to us publishing your advert within the statutory 14-day cancellation period afforded to consumers, which begins on the day that we notify you that your advert has gone live on Fourwheelsshop.

By submitting your advert for publication, you acknowledge that your right to cancel the contract at no cost to you will be lost.

An advert can be cancelled at any time by you, for example to avoid unwanted responses but no refunds will be given unless you cancel due to our breach of the contract.

9. LIABILITY

Nothing in these Conditions shall exclude or restrict our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraudulent misrepresentation and/or for any other liability which we are not permitted to exclude or limit by law.

If we fail to comply with these Conditions, we are responsible for loss or damage that you suffer as a foreseeable result of our breach of the Conditions or our negligence but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable or for any loss or damage not caused by any breach on our part. Loss or damage would be foreseeable if it were an obvious consequence of our breach or if it were contemplated by you and us at the time the advert was published and the contract was formed.

We will not be liable for any loss or damage caused by a distributed denial of service attack, viruses, malicious or impairing computer programs or other technologically harmful material that may affect Fourwheelsshop, your advert and/ or may infect your computer equipment, computer programs, data or other proprietary material due to your use of Fourwheelsshop or your downloading of any material posted on it or on any website linked to it.

We cannot guarantee that by placing an advert on Fourwheelsshop, you will sell the vehicle in question and we do not commit to finding a buyer for you. Our role is solely to provide a platform on which you can advertise your vehicle for sale.

The Write-off Checks (referred to in Condition 2.2) that are carried out when you place your advert are based on data supplied by an independent third party. The results provided are valid as at the time the advert is placed. We will not be liable for the accuracy of the results of any Write-off Checks that are displayed in an advert. It is your responsibility to check the results of the Write-off Checks before you place your advert and determine whether or not you still want to proceed. We will not be liable for any loss you might suffer arising out of the results of any Write-off Checks.

In order to create your advert, we may use certain third party data, including but not limited to data supplied by Glass’s Information Services Ltd (“Glass’s Data”). We will not be liable for the accuracy of any Glass’s Data that is included in or used to create your advert or for any loss or damage you might suffer as a result of the inclusion or use of Glass’s Data in your advert.

If, as a result of placing an advert, you are successful in selling your vehicle, Fourwheelsshop will not be connected in any way to that sale and will not be liable or responsible under any contract for the sale of your vehicle which you might enter into with a third party.

You agree that any questions and complaints regarding a vehicle advertised in your advert will be your responsibility only and that we do not have any liability in this regard.

In the event of any error or omission in an advert, we may at our sole discretion either amend the relevant part of the advert or refund or adjust the charges. No refund, amendment or adjustment to the charges will be made where in our sole opinion, the error or omission does not materially detract from the advert or where it arises as a result of incorrect or inadequate information provided by you.

We shall not be liable to you for any delay in performing and/or any failure to perform our obligations to you if the delay or failure is due to any event outside of our reasonable control (including without limitation, any act of God, fire, flood, explosion, storm, epidemic or natural disaster, strike, terrorist attack or threat of terrorist attack, infrastructure failure or power failure, denial of service attack, failure of public or private telecommunications networks).

Nothing in these Conditions affects your legal rights. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens Advice Bureau or Trading Standards.

10. DATA PROTECTION AND SECURITY

We take security very seriously and provide advice on the Fourwheelsshop Website on steps you can take to ensure your safety and security when selling your vehicle. This information can be found under Safety & Security Centre.

By submitting an advert to us, you are requesting that your advert appears on Fourwheelsshop. This means that the advert and all information contained within it can potentially be viewed by all persons with internet access throughout the world. You consent to the publication of your data in this way.

We use Protect My Number and a Customer to Customer messaging service to protect the privacy of our customers.

Protect My Number disguises your telephone number from persons viewing your advert by allowing them to call you without seeing your true number. Protect My Number is automatically applied at the time you place your advert. Removal of this feature is only available by contacting our Customer Service team. Please note that if you opt out of Protect My Number, your telephone number will be visible to everybody viewing your advert. To find out more about Protect My Number, please visit What is Protect My Number?

Customer to Customer messaging disguises your email address from persons viewing your advert by enabling them to contact you through a link on your advert without seeing your true email address. This is not optional. By placing an advert with us, you acknowledge and agree that your communication with persons viewing your advert will be via consent to the use of our Customer to Customer messaging service.

You acknowledge and agree that by placing an advert with us, you will provide us with and we will collect from you certain personal data relating to you (e.g. name, address and contact details). This personal data will be processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy and may be used for a number of purposes (as further detailed in our Privacy Policy) and which may include the prevention and detection of fraud, assisting with police investigations and/or enquiries and/or complying with statutory and regulatory obligations. Our Privacy Policy can be found on our website and we advise you to read it. For the privacy policy, visit Privacy Policy.

11. INFORMATION ABOUT US AND HOW TO CONTACT US

 Fourwheelsshop is the trading name of fourwheelsshop.co.uk

If you wish to contact us in writing, you can do so by:

  1. e-mailing enquiries@fourwheelsshop.co.uk

If you would like to speak to us on the telephone to discuss an advert that you have placed, to make a complaint about your advert or for general enquiries, please call 01162461588. Please check the Fourwheelsshop Website to find our current opening hours.

Please note that if we have to contact you or give you notice in writing, we may do so by e-mail, or by pre-paid post to the address you provide to us at the time you placed the advert.

12. GENERAL

We may transfer our rights and obligations under these Conditions to a third party and we will always notify you in writing if this happens. This will not affect your rights or our obligations under these Conditions.

Each of the paragraphs of these Conditions operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them or any part of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs or parts will remain in full force and effect.

If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Conditions, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive an obligation by you, we will only do so in writing and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.

These Conditions form a contract between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce them.

These Conditions are governed and construed by English law. This means that the contract formed between you and us and any dispute or claim arising out of it will be governed by English law. You and we both agree that the Courts of England and Wales will have non-exclusive jurisdiction. This means that a claim could be brought in England or if you are a resident of Northern Ireland, you may bring a claim in Northern Ireland and if you are a resident of Scotland, you may bring a claim in Scotland. English law will however, apply in all cases.

13. TRADE ADVERTISING

These Conditions relate to the advertising of vehicles by PRIVATE SELLERS ONLY. If you are a trader and you would like to advertise vehicles for sale on the Fourwheelsshop Website, please visit the dealer  section of www.fourwheelsshop.co.uk.

If you are a trader acting in the course of your business, you are not permitted to place any advert as a private advert and/or otherwise pass yourself off as a private seller. The Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Practices Regulations 2008 requires all adverts placed by people who seek to sell goods in the course of business to make the fact clear. 

This requirement applies whether the advertiser is acting on his own behalf, or for some other person. Customers should be able to tell whether an advert relates to a sale by a trade or private seller. It is the responsibility of the advertiser to comply with the Regulations. If you are a trader acting in the course of your business, it is an offence, for which you may be prosecuted, not to advertise the fact that you are a trader.

We may, in our sole discretion, remove any advert that has been placed as private which we reasonably believe has been placed by a trader acting in the course of a business. In such circumstances, you will not be entitled to any refund for the advert in question and you may be charged an administration fee by us.

14. INSTANT OFFER VALUATION

18. VEHICLE INSPECTION

Before completing the purchase of the Vehicle or issuing our Final Valuation we will check the Vehicle Documentation and conduct a physical Inspection of the Vehicle in order to confirm and verify the Assumptions and the details you provided to us in the Condition Appraisal Form and any subsequent telephone questionnaire.

The Valuation confirmation email we send you will contain a booking tool in order to arrange a date and time for us to conduct the inspection within 7 days of the date of the Valuation at the address where the Vehicle is located (subject to availability of the Service at the address).

At the scheduled Inspection you must have your bank card showing your account number and sort code, your driving licence, and one other form of ID. If any of these documents are missing we will not be able to continue with the Inspection.

Following the Inspection, we reserve the right to change or withdraw the Valuation only if:

  1. any of the information you provided in the Condition Appraisal Form is untrue, inaccurate or incomplete; or
  2. any of the Assumptions are incorrect.
  3. If we decide to withdraw or change the Valuation as a result of the Inspection, this will be communicated to you by email. You are under no obligation to sell the Vehicle to us following a revised Valuation.
  4. During the Inspection, the Vehicle may undergo mechanical examination and/or test driving. You must ensure that the Vehicle has up-to-date vehicle tax, is Roadworthy and is driveable before we test drive the Vehicle.
  5. We accept no liability for any delay or failure to conduct the Inspection if and to the extent that the delay is due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

19. VEHICLE PURCHASE

Following completion of the Vehicle Inspection we will immediately provide you with an on-site Final Valuation, which, subject to clause 5.4, will be the same as the Valuation. For the avoidance of doubt, the Final Valuation will constitute a conditional offer from us to purchase the Vehicle for the Purchase Price subject to these Conditions and the Contract of Sale.

The Final Valuation will be deemed accepted by you at the point you sign the Contract of Sale.

Once you have signed the Contract of Sale, we will immediately pay you the Purchase Price (subject to the availability of third party banking systems) via a secure online bank transfer confirmation of which will be sent to you by email. Payment will be made using the payment information and bank account details provided by you to us following your acceptance of the Final Valuation. We reserve the right to make payment by any other method when it is reasonable to do so.

Title and risk to the Vehicle passes from you to us on payment. However, until such time as payment has been received by you, you remain the owner of the Vehicle and are responsible for insuring the Vehicle.

We will aim to collect the Vehicle within 5 days of payment. During this time, you agree not to drive the Vehicle. In the event the Vehicle will be an obstruction, please inform our on-site representative who will move it to a suitable temporary location.

You are under no obligation to sell the Vehicle to us following a Final Valuation. If you do not accept the Final Valuation it will be deemed to be immediately withdrawn. If you subsequently change your mind once our representative has left the address where the Inspection took place, we will need to carry out another Inspection before making another Final Valuation to confirm that none of the factors specified in clause 5.4 have changed.

20. VEHICLE HANDOVER

At the time the Contract of Sale is made, you agree to provide us immediately with:

  1. the Vehicle Documentation; and
  2. any accessories that should be present with the Vehicle.
  3. You also agree to remove any personal possessions from the Vehicle and reset any devices on which personal details or information is stored. We will not be responsible for any personal items in the Vehicle once the Vehicle is in our possession.
  4. In the event that you fail to comply with any of the handover requirements set out in clause 7.1 we reserve the right to withdraw the Final Valuation.

21. OUTSTANDING FINANCE

You agree to inform us if the Vehicle is the subject of any Outstanding Finance.

As part of our Final Valuation we may agree to settle any Outstanding Finance sum on the Vehicle where the Outstanding Finance sum is the same as or less than the Purchase Price. However, if the Outstanding Finance sum is more than the Purchase Price we will not purchase the Vehicle and we reserve the right to withdraw any Final Valuation.

If we agree to settle any Outstanding Finance sum we are doing so entirely on your behalf and you will remain fully liable to the lender and/or finance provider (as appropriate) at all times until the Outstanding Finance sum has been paid in full and the credit agreement has been legally brought to an end. We accept no liability whatsoever in relation to any matters relating to Outstanding Finance on any Vehicle.

If we agree to settle any Outstanding Finance sum, you must provide us with a valid settlement letter or grant us authority to discuss your finance with your provider. We shall use reasonable endeavours to settle payment by the due date advised to us (if any).

22. LIABILITY

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we shall have no liability to you for (a) loss of profit (whether direct or indirect and whether or not reasonably foreseeable by the parties), (b) lost opportunity, or (c) special and consequential losses. In any event (subject to clause 9.3) our liability to you shall in no circumstances exceed the Purchase Price of the Vehicle.

Manheim shall have no liability for theft or damage to a Vehicle until risk in the Vehicle has passed to Manheim pursuant to these Conditions (except where the damage is caused by our employees or authorised representative).

Nothing in these Conditions shall limit our liability for (a) death or personal injury arising from our negligence or fraud or (b) for fraudulent misrepresentation.

All other provisions of these Conditions will remain in full force and effect with such modifications as may be necessary to give effect to the remaining Conditions.

ADVERTISING GUIDELINES

Please follow these rules when creating your ads.

Our services allow customers to advertise vehicles for sale. However, we don’t own, buy or sell any of the vehicles shown on our website – and we do not get involved in transactions between buyers and sellers.

When you place an advert on our website, you accept and agree to comply with all our Terms & Conditions, plus any relevant legislative or regulatory requirements.

Please remember, it is your responsibility to ensure your adverts contain correct information.

Adverts that fail to meet these conditions will be removed – no refunds or credits will be given.

Placing your advert

To make sure your advert doesn’t get removed, always:

  1. State the full sale price, and ensure this is consistent throughout the ad
  2. State the full mileage, and ensure this is consistent throughout the ad

Why we remove ads

We may remove your advert if:

Your ad shows inconsistent or incorrect mileage. For instance:

  1. You don’t include any mileage in the advert
  2. You abbreviate the mileage, e.g. 105 when it should be 105,000
  3. You mislead buyers about the vehicle or price. For instance:
  4. You included a finance, lease or hire price as the overall vehicle price.
  5. You advertise a non-existent vehicle – or one that’s been recently sold – in order to attract customers.
  6. You put an artificially low price in the price field, but then show a higher price in the advert’s description.

THE SMALL PRINT

We may terminate any advertising agreement or contract immediately by giving notice to the seller by telephone, fax, email or letter. We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to refuse to publish any advertisement, provide any advertising services, or remove any or all advertisements from the websites, where the seller breaches the terms of the advertising agreement.

Four wheels shop is giving their customers a platform to advertise and sell their cars and automotive in the most nominal cost which is affordable to everyone in UK.
