3.4 You may use the Website to purchase products or services from Dennis BuyaCar Limited’s third party partners. In that event, your Contract for such products will be with the third party partner and will be subject to that third party's terms and conditions. Dennis BuyaCar Limited cannot be responsible for any aspect of the relationship between you and the third party partner, in particular anyone advertising used cars through the Website. Parts of the Website may contain advertising and sponsorship.

3.7 All photos, drawings, descriptive matter, specifications and advertising appearing on the Website are issued or published for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the cars described in them. The Car models pictured and described on the Website are illustrative of the model generally, and may include optional extras, and should not be taken as representing the exact Car you may choose. As indicated below, should you decide to purchase a Car, you should review the exact Specifications contained the Vehicle Order, as these will form the precise description of the Car you are purchasing.

3.8 Dennis BuyaCar Limited may wish to change these Terms and Conditions (including those relating to your use of the content) at any time and without notice to you. By using the Website following any changes to the terms, you agree to be bound by those changes.

3.9 The display of vehicles on the Website and/or any quotation given by us to you on the Website in respect of any Car shall not constitute an offer by us to sell or supply any Car and prior to the signature by you of the Vehicle Order we reserve the absolute discretion to refuse to accept any Order from you, or to refuse to sell or supply any Car to you, without the need to provide any reason therefore.

    

4. Amendments to these Conditions
