I paid a certain amount as a down payment, but the contract shows a different, lower figure. The finance manager is being difficult about correcting it.

Ask for the car to be detailed and the gas tank filled as soon as possible, ideally while you wait.

Escalate the issue to a sales manager or general manager to ensure it's addressed promptly.

If the buyer had the car inspected before purchase, review the report for any potential red flags.

Gently ask if there are any specific problems with the car that are causing them to reconsider the purchase.

Keep a record of all communications with the buyer, noting their reasons for wanting to return the car.

Reiterate the terms of the sale and that the transaction is final as per your agreement.

If a contract exists, point to the specific clauses that outline the terms of the sale and the absence of a return policy.

Politely inform the buyer that private sales are typically 'as-is' transactions and do not come with a statutory right to return unless explicitly agreed upon.

Seek guidance from a legal professional specializing in consumer law or contract disputes to understand your rights and obligations.

Scour emails, texts, or any other written communication for any mention of return policies or buyer's remorse clauses.
