    The bar for a dealer selling a safe/unsafe car is not the NCT though.

    They have an additional responsibility to ensure that they do not knowingly sell an unsafe car.

    Exactly.

    Any pictures of what we're talking about here? Fiberglass seems an incredibly odd choice to repair a chassis.

    Quoting the sale of goods act is all well and good but in reality OP hasn’t a leg to stand on

    (not directed at you OP)

    Where in the Sale of Goods and Supply of Services Act does it say that the OP doesn't have a leg to stand on?

    Even citizens information makes it clear that a dealer has to supply a safe car.

    And the Dealer no doubt will claim they did, and have a valid NCT to confirm it’s road worthiness. So it is up to the op to prove otherwise.

    Exactly. Unfortunately OP can’t prove that the car was unroadworthy when he bought it therefore his argument will never hold up in court.

    We don’t even know if the car is unroadworthy, a mechanic just gave their opinion on it thats all
