The Consumer Information Standards (Used Motor Vehicles) Regulations 2008 requires a properly completed Consumer Information Notice (CIN) to be attached to all used motor vehicles offered or displayed for sale.
The CIN provides sellers with a standard format by which buyers can obtain information about used vehicles in order to make better informed purchasing decisions. The CIN format and the information that must be included in the notice are set out in the Regulations.
The Regulations which comprise the Consumer Information Standard are issued under section 27 of the Fair Trading Act 1986.
