For the purposes of sellers and buyers concluding sales and purchases via BCA Live Online, BCA Bid Now, BCA Buy Now and BCA e-Auction the Conditions are varied as follows: Condition 10B shall apply only to the extent that it is not inconsistent with the provision by BCA of an online description and/or grading** and for the avoidance of doubt it shall remain a term of the contract of sale that the buyer accepts the tyres, exhaust and battery with all damage and defects (if any) which an inspection of the vehicle ought reasonably to reveal. Condition 18A shall be varied such that it provides as follows: “The property in the vehicle shall not pass to the buyer until the price, the buyer’s fee and the online buyer’s fee has been paid to BCA and any cheque or other instrument tendered in payment has been cleared. Until the property passes the seller reserves the right to dispose of the vehicle.” Condition 20A shall be varied such that it provides as follows: “The price, the buyer’s fee and the online buyer’s fee must be paid by the buyer to BCA”. Condition 25B shall be varied such that sales of vehicles effected by BCA Live Online, BCA Bid Now, BCA Buy Now and BCA e-Auction shall be treated as sales effected by the fall of the hammer in the auction hall and not as private treaty sales. An additional sub-condition shall be added to Condition 26, which shall provide as follows: “All buyers concluding purchases via BCA Live Online, BCA Bid Now, BCA Buy Now and BCA e-Auction will be charged an online buyer’s fee in respect of services provided by BCA to the buyer.” In addition to the variations described in paragraph 2 above, for the purposes of sellers and buyers concluding sales and purchases via BCA Live Online the Conditions are also varied such that the time limits specified in Conditions 11, 15 and 16 shall apply only to the extent that they are not inconsistent with the time limits prescribed by the Live Online Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Policy (“LODRAP”)*** . Unless otherwise stated vehicles sold and purchased via BCA Live Online, BCA Bid Now, BCA Buy Now and BCA e-Auction are sold and purchased “as seen” as defined in Condition 7. A party offering a vehicle for sale via BCA Bid Now, BCA Buy Now or BCA e-Auction in circumstances where the offered vehicle is not physically present on BCA premises: undertakes to BCA that it (the offering party) shall: ensure that the person(s) in whose possession and/or control the vehicle remains is/are aware and understand the implications of the fact that the vehicle is being so offered; and not enter into a contract for the sale of a vehicle otherwise than via BCA Bid Now, BCA Buy Now or BCA e-Auction whilst it is being so offered; and acknowledges that: if it breaches the undertaking contained in sub-paragraph 5.A.b. above in circumstances where it also contracts to sell the vehicle via BCA Bid Now, BCA Buy Now or BCA e-Auction, it may incur legal liabilities to one or more of the non-BCA buyer, the BCA buyer and BCA; and a buyer through BCA Bid Now, BCA Buy Now or BCA e-Auction may in certain circumstances acquire more statutory rights vis-à-vis the contract of sale than a buyer through a physical auction. Where a party has been provided with the facility to remotely instruct BCA to offer a vehicle for sale without providing BCA with a completed entry form, there shall be such agreement between the instructing party and BCA as is described in Condition 3A, and Condition 3 shall apply to the subsequent offering of the vehicle for sale by BCA. Where BCA has provided a vehicle appraisal report in respect of, and assigned a condition grade to, a vehicle, then BCA shall not be liable to any person for any omission from or inaccuracy in the information presented in the vehicle appraisal report unless any such omission or inaccuracy is of sufficient magnitude such that, had it been taken into account when assigning the condition grade to the vehicle, the condition grade assigned would have been inferior to that actually assigned to the vehicle, in which case BCA shall be liable to the buyer in damages only not exceeding the reasonable cost of rectifying the defect omitted from or inaccurately described in the vehicle appraisal report. * Copies of the Conditions are available free of charge from all BCA branches and the BCA website. Potential sellers and bidders are strongly advised to read the Conditions before selling or bidding. ** Details of the BCA Live Online grading standards are available in the BCA website: Condition Grades *** The BCA Live Online Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Policy (“LODRAP”) is available here and must be followed in the event of a post-sale dispute*** Online Terms and Conditions Version 7 - 2011 Back to top Belgium Bulgaria Croatia Czechia Denmark Estonia Finland France Germany Italy Latvia Lithuania Netherlands Norway Poland Portugal Romania Serbia Spain Sweden Switzerland United Kingdom Copyright 2017 British Car Auctions Ltd.
