1.1 The services we provide are for use by UK residents only.
1.2 In these terms and conditions, “we” and “us” refer to the Company and “you” refers to our Client.
2.1 Our Company’s main business activity is to find a car to meet your particular needs. We are completely
independent and have no links to any car dealership or car supermarkets. This allows us to search across the
market and find a vehicle that is appropriate for you.2.2 By appointing us as your Personal Vehicle Shopper we will only ever act on your behalf as an intermediary.
Your legal relationship (and all associated rights and responsibilities) in respect of the purchase of the vehicle
will be with the vendor (whether an individual, partnership or company) and subject to their terms and
conditions, of which they will advise you.2.3 At the initial consultation (for which a fee is payable – see schedule of fees) we shall agree:
i. your specific requirements for the vehicle that we will find for you;
ii. your budget for the car that we find for you. We shall only look for vehicles that are within your budget.
If we find a car which meets your needs but is over your agreed budget, we shall inform you and you may,
at this stage, authorize us to increase your agreed budget; andiii. the timescale within which you would like us to find you a car. Due to the nature of the car market, any
timescale we agree is indicative only and we cannot be held liable for any further time that is needed to find a
car which meets your needs.2.4 Once the above has been agreed, we will provide you with details of up to three vehicles which match your
instructions (whereupon a final fee is payable – see schedule of fees).We can offer further assistance in the
purchase of the vehicle. This will include undertaking of vendors, demonstration drive, agreeing a purchase
price and negotiating any additional requirements. If you decide not to proceed with any of the vehicles found
an additional fee (see schedule of fees) will be payable for further research.
3.1 We charge an initial consultation fee of £50 payable by cash or cheque. This fee is not refundable.
3.2 A final fee of £150 is payable to Car-Ease Angels after all parties have agreed on a purchase price for a
vehicle which we have found for you.3.3 Payment of fees to be made strictly “on the day” of invoice, unless otherwise agreed.
3.4 Additional further research fee for 3 more vehicles (if necessary): £75
4.1 You may cancel our services at any time in writing, but we will retain any fees which you have already
paid to us.
5.1 The final decision to purchase any vehicle is always yours and we will accept no liability in relation to the
vehicle we find for you; its quality, legality, fitness for purpose or otherwise. You are obliged to take all
necessary steps to satisfy yourself that the vehicle you buy is fit for its purpose and conduct the appropriate
legal checks.5.2 The liability of the vendor from whom you eventually purchase the vehicle will be laid out in their terms
and conditions and these will apply to the sale of your vehicle.5.3 We aim to advise you on any issues we are able to in respect of the vehicle but cannot be held liable for
any advice we may give.5.4 We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability:
i. for death or personal injury caused by our negligence;
ii. for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; and
iii. for any matter for which it would be illegal for us to exclude or attempt to exclude our liability.
5.5 We accept no liability for any loss of profits or income, loss of business, loss of anticipated savings, loss of
data, waste of time or for any indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind howsoever arising, whether
caused by tort (including negligence), breach of contract or otherwise.

Insolvency Act 1986 (as amended) and owe any money to us for work carried out, without prejudices to our
rights at common law, we shall retain rights over work for which payment remains outstanding at the date of
any such Order in Bankruptcy or Liquidation.
7.1 All notices given by you to us must be given to Car-Ease Angels. We may give notice to you at either the
e-mail or postal address you provide to us when placing an order. Notice will be deemed received and properly
served immediately when posted on our website, 24 hours after an e-mail is sent, or three days after the date
of posting of any letter. In proving the service of any notice, it will be sufficient to prove, in the case of a letter,
that such letter was properly addressed, stamped and placed in the post and, in the case of an e-mail that
such e-mail was sent to the specified e-mail address of the addressee.

conditions, or if we fail to exercise any of the rights or remedies to which we are entitled under them, this shall
not constitute a waiver of such rights or remedies and shall not relieve you from compliance with such
obligations. A waiver by us of any default shall not constitute a waiver of any subsequent default.9.2 No waiver by us of any of these terms and conditions shall be effective unless it is expressly stated to be a
waiver and is communicated to you in writing in accordance with clause 8 above.
