As the "lemon law," the Consumer Rights Act of 2015 safeguards consumers in the United Kingdom from unscrupulous car dealers. You have 30 days to return a defective vehicle for a full refund. You have the right to a replacement or repair within 30 days to 6 months, but the dealer can only make one attempt.

Important Parts of the UK's Consumer Rights Act of 2015 that Protect Automobiles:

30-Day Reject Policy:
You have the right to reject the vehicle for a complete refund if any defect is found within 30 days of purchase. This includes defects in quality, suitability for purpose, and accuracy of description.

If a problem arises within the first six months after purchase, the seller is required to fix or replace the item at no additional cost. A single try at fixing or replacing the vehicle is within the dealer's rights.

If the replacement or repair doesn't work, you can ask for a partial refund or a price cut.

If the problem still persists after six months, you'll have to show that it was present during shipment.

Vehicles purchased from dealerships or wholesalers are covered, but those from individual sellers or auctions are not.

Those two possibilities are no longer viable, I'm afraid.
