Can I claim compensation for buying a diesel car?
Motorists who own or previously owned one may be entitled to compensation. That means drivers could be owed cash if they can prove they would never have bought the car if they’d known about the “emission flaws”.
Will UK VW owners be compensated?
Volkswagen hasn’t paid compensation to any UK owners, claiming the cars weren’t fitted with a ‘defeat device’ under UK law. Previous rulings to the contrary in other countries, such as the US, carry no weight in the UK, hence the need for the class action proceedings.
Can I still make a claim against VW?
Yes. If you have an affected vehicle, whether it was purchased new or second hand including on finance, hire purchase, personal contract purchase or leased. You can also claim if you have sold the affected vehicle, provided that you have proof of ownership/leasing.
