Caveat Emptor

A Latin term for 'buyer beware'. In motoring terms, this means that you must be on your guard when buying a second hand car as legal protection in the used car market is limited.

Although dealers are covered by some laws and regulations, the only rule to which a private seller must stick to is not to mis-describe the vehicle.
