Article 7. Warranty and Liability

All vehicles are sold subject to the legal warranty under Dutch Civil Code (conformity requirement, Art. 7:17 BW).

Inspection and acceptance. The buyer acknowledges having inspected the vehicle (or having been offered the opportunity to do so) prior to purchase. The vehicle is sold in the condition as seen and test-ridden. Defects or characteristics that were visible or disclosed at the time of sale are considered accepted by the buyer.

Wear and consumables. Normal wear and tear does not constitute a defect. The following parts are considered consumable and are excluded from warranty: tires, brake pads, battery, filters, fluids, chains, sprockets, clutch plates, and light bulbs.

Notification obligation. The buyer must report any defects to Motodam B.V. in writing within two (2) months of discovery. Failure to report a defect in time forfeits the buyer's right to claim.

Claim period. All warranty claims must be submitted within one (1) year of the delivery date.

Consignment sales. Vehicles sold on consignment (in commissie) are sold by Motodam B.V. acting solely as intermediary on behalf of a private seller. The purchase agreement is between the buyer and the private seller. These vehicles are sold as-is, without any warranty from Motodam B.V. The legal warranty under Art. 7:17 BW does not apply, as it concerns a private sale. Motodam B.V. accepts no liability for defects, whether visible or hidden, in consignment vehicles. Consignment vehicles are clearly identified as such in the listing and purchase agreement.

Article 8. Disputes and Applicable Law

All agreements are governed by Dutch law.

Disputes are preferably resolved through mutual consultation. If this is not possible, the dispute will be submitted to the competent court in The Hague (Rechtbank Den Haag).
