MYWAYPRO shall make reasonable efforts to inform the Client of changes to the indicative delivery times.

Delay in the delivery of Vehicles does not release the Client from his obligation to accept the delivery.

7.3.3. Each Vehicle will and may only be transported to the destination country as stated in the order confirmation. The Client shall be liable for and shall indemnify and hold MYWAYPRO harmless from and against all damages suffered by MYWAYPRO as a result of or in connection with the transport of a Vehicle to a country other than the country of destination as stated on the order confirmation.

7.4.3. The Client acknowledges and agrees that MYWAYPRO at all times reserves the right to refuse the release of the Vehicle(s) to the Client (or the Client's transporter, if applicable) if the Client (or the Client's transporter, if applicable) is unable to provide the necessary collection documents. The Client is fully responsible for any losses suffered by the Client, MYWAYPRO or any third party due to or in connection with such lack of a valid Pick-up Authorisation Document.

7.4.4. The Client shall collect (or arrange for collection) the Vehicle and transport it within ten (10) working days of receipt of the Pick-up Authorisation document (or a shorter period of time if indicated on the Pick-up Authorisation Document) at the latest.

7.6. Inspection of the Vehicles must be carried out by the Client or its contractor upon delivery or collection of the Vehicles.

During this investigation, the Client shall at all times take into account (i) the fact that the Client has purchased a used vehicle; (ii) the mileage of the Vehicles; and (iii) the first registration date of the Vehicles. Defects in or damage to parts of the Vehicles do not entitle the Customer to reject a Vehicle. The Client is a professional client and agrees to carefully inspect the Vehicles upon delivery or assign inspection to a third party with the technical knowledge required to conduct inspection. MYWAYPRO cannot be held liable for visible damage or defects that were not detected by MYWAYPRO and the Client (or a third party collecting the Vehicles on its behalf) at the time the Vehicles were collected. If MYWAYPRO and the Client do not reach an agreement on the compensation of visible damage or defects found upon inspection, MYWAYPRO has the right to dissolve the agreement with the Client in writing.

7.7. As security for the payment of past and current claims that MYWAYPRO has or may have on the Client, MYWAYPRO may exercise a right of retention and a lien shall be granted on all Vehicles of the Client that MYWAYPRO owns or will acquire and on all Vehicles that MYWAYPRO owes to the Client.

7.8. All Vehicles made available in accordance with this article 7 of these General Terms and Conditions shall remain the property of MYWAYPRO until the Client has fulfilled all his payment and collection obligations, even if MYWAYPRO has authorised the collection of vehicles prior to receipt of full payment by way of derogation from this article.

7.9. The risk of loss, damage or depreciation of the vehicles shall pass to the Client at the earliest at the time of (i) collection of the vehicle by the Client or (ii) delivery of the vehicle to the destination indicated by the Client.

The guarantee amount will be mentioned separately on the order form. The guarantee is twenty-one per cent (21%) of the vehicle price with a minimum of five hundred euros (EUR 500,00).

8.2.3. Upon receipt of the necessary evidence and export documents by MYWAYPRO from the Client, proving that the specific purchase constitutes an export for VAT purposes, the amount of the guarantee will be reimbursed on the Client bank account and the purchase will be invoiced to the Client without VAT.

8.4. MYWAYPRO shall send the car documents to the VAT registration country of the Client after reception and validation of the delivery evidence and after receipt in full of the increased Purchase Price. The Client keeps the full responsibility for the appropriate declaration of the purchase to the authorities. MYWAYPRO’s responsibility will in no case be engaged for any error, mistake or forgetfulness committed by the Client in relation with applicable taxes (VAT or any other tax).

8.5. MYWAYPRO will send the required documents and certificates by post after MYWAYPRO has received the signed collection documents (or, if applicable, a CMR waybill) from the Client. The Client will verify that he has received all necessary (Vehicle) documents. If the subsequent sale of the Vehicles by the Client requires legal approval or the express consent of the manufacturer in the country where the Client sells or wishes to sell the Vehicles, the Client shall be solely responsible for obtaining such approval or consent. Permission to market a Vehicle purchased from MYWAYPRO in a particular country is not implied or presumed. MYWAYPRO shall provide an edited copy of its Vehicle Supplier's invoice to the Client if ordered to do so by a court or governmental authority.

In the event MYWAYPRO issues such credit, this sum shall be the Client's sole remedy.

10.3. The validity of any warranty claim by the Client shall be contingent upon receipt by MYWAYPRO of timely notice of any alleged non-conformance of the Vehicle in accordance with clause 12.

10.4.
