Terms & Conditions
§ 1 Scope
The following terms and conditions ("T&C") of New Car Deals, operated by Online 365 (Pty) Ltd ("Online 365") (a company duly registered in South Africa with Registration Number 2014/245788/07 and having its principal place of business at Upper East Side, 31 Brickfield Road, Woodstock, Cape Town, South Africa) apply to any offers and negotiations of the internet portals operated by New Car Deals, promotion and cooperation of New Car Deals or other contacts initiated between customers and New Car Deals. The customers are interested parties, who communicate with the said channels of New Car Deals.
Other conditions of the customer are excluded, even if New Car Deals has not refused those.
§ 2 Brokerage Contract
New Car Deals brings dealers and customers through advertising and promotions together. New Car Deals is mandated by the customer with the purchase contract negotiation between the customer and a dealership. A brokerage contract shall be deemed granted if the customer submits its enquiry via one of New Car Deals' internet and mobile portals and therefore appoints New Car Deals to broker the purchase with a dealer. The contract is accepted if New Car Deals does not reject the contract. The brokerage contract is fulfilled with the transfer of the enquiry to the selling dealership by New Car Deals. The creation of an offer by New Car Deals is completely free of charge regardless of the offer being accepted by the customer. There are no brokerage fees or other charges payable by the customer.
§ 3 Cancellation of Brokerage Contract
Customers can cancel the brokerage contract within a two-week period starting with the submitting of enquiry via one of the New Car Deals internet or mobile portals. To meet the cancellation period the customer is required to send the cancellation via registered post to the following address:
Online 365 (Pty) Ltd
New Car Deals Support
PO Box 102
Rondebosch
7701
South Africa
§ 4 Prices, Car Delivery Dates and Delivery Times
The vehicle prices shown are final and include VAT, unless explicitly stated otherwise. Delivery charges could be charged separately by the dealership. All stated data such as prices and model specifications are not binding. The discounts are based on the list (retail) price of the manufacturer. Short-term price changes of the manufacturer or dealer are possible.
The vehicle will be handed over at the respective location of the dealership or any other location agreed between the customer and the dealership. All mentioned delivery times are not binding.
§ 5 Rejection and Cancellation of Brokerage Contracts
Offers of New Car Deals always apply "while stocks last", although this is not explicitly stated in the respective offers. If an advertised vehicle is no longer available, or the dealership cannot supply an advertised vehicle, New Car Deals is entitled to reject the brokerage contract and to cancel existing brokerage contracts. This also applies to changes of New Car Deals terms and conditions and price changes from manufacturers and dealers.
This also applies to errors in respect of vehicle specifications, and incorrect and changed price information — New Car Deals can reject and cancel the brokerage contract and dissolve existing brokerage contracts. In this case, New Car Deals will attempt to inform the customer of the failed brokerage attempt, while trying to provide the customer as quickly as possible with an alternative vehicle offer.
§ 6 Purchasing, Financing, Leasing, Insurance and Payment
The customer will receive the purchase agreement in respect of the selected vehicle, or any other suitable vehicle agreed by the customer, from the vehicle-delivering dealership. In the case of additional services such as leasing, financing and insurance, the customer receives possibly additional contractual documents from New Car Deals' partner service providers.
New Car Deals acts as an intermediary and will not at any time be part of any agreements between the customer and the dealership or any other service providers.
The purchase price including any other charges such as finance fees and delivery costs are payable prior to the delivery of the vehicle. Payment is to be made directly to the delivering dealership. Payments relating to finance and leasing contracts have to be made as agreed in the respective contracts.
