1. Your Agreement with us

1.1 These Terms and Conditions describe the rights and responsibilities of you and us in relation to your purchase of a vehicle through this website ("Agreement"). Please read them carefully as they represent a legally binding agreement between you and us (and the finance company if you buy on finance). If you have any concerns or queries you should contact us on Ken Jervis Kia Tel: 01782 202782 prior to placing an order. When you complete and submit the online order form, you accept the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement. If you wish to rely on any amendment or addition to the Agreement, you should ensure it is confirmed in writing by one of our duly authorised representatives. If we agree any variation in the vehicle to be supplied, this shall be deemed to be an amendment to the Agreement rather than a new agreement.

2. Ordering your car

2.1 Please follow the onscreen prompts to place an order. Each order is an offer by you to buy the Vehicle specified in the order (Vehicle) subject to these Terms.

2.2 Our order process allows you to check and amend any errors before submitting your order to us. Please check the order carefully before confirming it. You are responsible for ensuring that your order and any specification submitted by you is complete and accurate.

2.3 After you place an order, you will receive an email from us acknowledging that we have received it, but please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted.

2.4 Our acceptance of your order takes place when we contact you to accept it, at which point the Contract between you and us will come into existence.

2.5 If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and will not charge you for the product. This might be because the vehicle is out of stock, because a finance application has been rejected, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product or because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline.

2.6 Please be aware that vehicles and products may vary slightly from their pictures. The images of the vehicles and products on our website are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that a device's display of the colours accurately reflects the colour of the vehicle or products and they may vary slightly from those images.

2.7 To place an order you must be aged 18 or over.

3. Payment

3.1 Once you have made your vehicle choice, you can pay a reservation fee to reserve the vehicle. You can part-exchange your existing vehicle and put the money towards the value of your new vehicle.
