Dear Sir/Mam,
Few months back, I had a deal with a person for a second hand car. I had paid 55000 rupees advance. Later - on inquiring about the car, I came to know that it is of 2002 make where as he was saying it of 2005 make. The odometer was tampered, it was showing different reading than what is recorded with the dealer while its servicing. I returned the car back to him. But he has returned only 40000 rupees, but not returning rest of money. Please suggest, what I should do. We had verbal deal, nothing on paper.
Thanks.

You have to pay for your negligence, and for its use, [for whatever days or months,you used the car]
Good Luck, u recd 40k , on oral terms.
We must be on our guard!!
I suggest to forget 10k, for your use, your negligence to accept, as is where is basis on oral agreement, paid in cash .
This will teach you a lesion, U R Betrayed whenever, and wherever you trust Blindly.
Next Time, be careful, do not trust, examine yourself, in all important deed in your life, and teach it to your children too. That will ensure you happiness.
Bless God, it was Car, that you could return.
Had it been your Wife or a Daughter in Law?? Marriage expenses in L gone + Mtn +498+DV +residence+ use for a month ensure child also, so 125 & property
Everybody gets cheated one time or the other.
We have to learn out of our mistakes.10k to learn this is very nominal fees.
Remember Car, whenever you deal in future.

Thank you for your reply, it was not my negligence, it was my trust and faith. The vehicle was with me for only one day. I met with many gentlemen. It was my previous good experience which made me to trust this guy also. But yes, its a good lesson.

dear anonymous
before purchase of car you must have it checked by expert mechanic. you are fully aware that in many cases of resale the odometer is tampered with .
you ought to have checked the original papers of car . registration details would have shown year car was made .
since it is verbal deal with nothing in writing you have no proof of payment being made .
the fact that seller returned your 40,000 is good fortune . if you take any legal proceedings costs will outweigh the benefits and you may end up spending more money in litigation

am also agree with experts.. if you were entered in to any written agreement mean you claim your money..
if its oral mean you cant.. just feel happy..
[even if you have time to walk to court mean just lodge a criminal complaint against him]
