SLL shall not be required to achieve any minimum price for the sale or disposal of the Vehicle provided that it is sold or otherwise disposed of on the open market.
- SLL may at any time, without notice to Customer set off any liability owed by the Customer to it against any liability owed by it to the Customer, whether either liability is present or future, liquidated or unliquidated, and whether or not either liability arises under this Contract or otherwise. The Customer shall remain liable to SLL for any liabilities, costs and charges to the extent that they remain unsatisfied notwithstanding any exercise by SLL of its rights under clauses 8.6 to 8.9.

Provided SLL has done so, it shall not be liable to the Customer for any delay, loss or damage caused by any delay outside of its reasonable control.

Handling of Vehicle

SLL:

Subject to clause 13.1, SLL shall not be liable for loss of, or damage to, the Vehicle, or delay or mis-delivery, in any circumstances where it cannot be proved by the Customer that the same was caused by the wilful act, neglect or default of SLL or its employees, agents, representatives or sub-contractors.

- The cancellation period will expire at the end of 14 days from the day that the Contract is entered into (Cancellation Period). To exercise the right to cancel, the Customer must inform SLL of his decision to cancel the Contract by a clear statement sent by letter, fax or e-mail to SLL at its contact details set out in the Contract Details. The Customer may use the model cancellation form set out at the end of this clause 16, but it is not obligatory. To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for the Customer to send a communication within the Cancellation Period even if it is not received by SLL before the Cancellation Period has expired.
- If the Customer cancels the Contract, SLL will reimburse all payments received from the Customer unless the Customer requested SLL to begin with the provision of Services during the Cancellation Period (see clause 16.4 below). SLL will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and no later than 14 days after the day on which it is informed about the Customer’s decision to cancel the Contract, using the same means of payment as used for the initial transaction, unless SLL and the Customer have expressly agreed otherwise. In any event, the Customer will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement.
- SLL will not start providing the Services until the Customer has accepted the Contract and SLL will not accept delivery of the vehicle during the Cancellation Period unless the Customer expressly requests SLL in writing to begin with the provision of Services during the Cancellation Period.

The Customer will lose the right to cancel and must pay SLL in full once the Cancellation Period has expired or the Services under the Contract have been fully performed even if that occurs within the Cancellation Period.

- No variation of the Contract shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the parties (or their authorised representatives).
- - A waiver of any right or remedy under the Contract or by law is only effective if given in writing and shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent right or remedy.
