However, once we have completed the services you cannot change your mind, even if the period is still running. If you cancel after we have started the services, you must pay us for the services provided up until the time you tell us that you have changed your mind.

          (b)          Have you bought goods? if so you have 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the goods, unless:

We will endeavour to keep you updated on the lead times for delivery of such spares and missing parts and will take steps to minimise the effect of delay wherever possible.  Provided we do this we will not be liable for such delays.

 13.     YOUR RIGHTS IN RESPECT OF DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS IF YOU ARE A BUSINESS  

13.1   If you are a business customer we warrant that on delivery, and for a period of 12 months from the date of delivery (warranty period), any products which are goods shall:

We will endeavour to keep you updated on the lead times for delivery of such spares and missing parts and will take steps to minimise the effect of delay wherever possible.  Provided we do this we will not be liable for such delays.

14.     PRICE AND PAYMENT  

14.1   Where to find the price for the product. The price of the product (which specifies whether it includes VAT or if VAT is excluded) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However please see Clause 14.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.

14.2   We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.

14.3   What happens if we got the price wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the product’s correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product’s correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.

14.4   When you must pay and how you must pay. We accept payment with PayPal, by debit or credit Card or by BACs.  A list of those debit and credit card accepted by us is set out in the payment details section in our secure checkout page. Corporate credit cards will incur an additional 3.14% charge of the total amount. When you must pay depends on what product you are buying:

          (a)          For goods, you must pay for the products before we dispatch them.

          (b)          For services, you must pay for services at the point of your booking those services.  A receipted invoice will be provided to you.

          Please see the following link for information on whether garage equipment finance might be available to you [insert link].

14.5   Our right of set-off if you are a business customer. If you are a business customer you must pay all amounts due to us under these terms in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by law).

14.6   We can charge interest if you pay late. If you do not make any payment to us by the due date we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 2% a year above the base lending rate of Barclays Bank plc from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
