This period is reduced to 10 days (two weeks for commercial vehicles) for vehicles that are available at the seller's premises. The seller shall be in default upon receipt of the request. If the buyer is entitled to compensation for damage caused by delay, this shall be limited to a maximum of 5% of the agreed purchase price in the event of slight negligence on the part of the seller.

3. furthermore, if the buyer wishes to withdraw from the contract and/or claim damages instead of performance, he must set the seller a reasonable deadline for delivery after expiry of the relevant deadline in accordance with clause 2, sentence 1 or 2 of this section. If the Buyer is entitled to damages in lieu of performance, the claim shall be limited to a maximum of 25% of the agreed purchase price in the event of slight negligence. If the buyer is a legal entity under public law, a special fund under public law or an entrepreneur who is acting in the exercise of his commercial or independent professional activity when concluding the contract, claims for damages instead of performance are excluded in the event of slight negligence. If, while the seller is in default, delivery becomes impossible by chance, the seller shall be liable subject to the limitations of liability agreed above. The seller shall not be liable if the damage would have occurred even if delivery had been made on time.

4. if a binding delivery date or a binding delivery period is exceeded, the seller shall be in default as soon as the delivery date or delivery period is exceeded. The Buyer's rights shall then be determined in accordance with clauses 2 and 3 of this section.

5. the limitations and exclusions of liability in this section shall not apply to damage caused by gross negligence or intentional breach of obligations on the part of the seller, its legal representative or its vicarious agent or in the event of injury to life, limb or health.

‍

1. the buyer is obliged to accept the object of purchase within 14 days of receipt of the notification of availability.

2. in the event of non-acceptance, the seller may exercise his statutory rights. If the seller demands compensation, this shall amount to 15% of the purchase price.

V. Retention of title

‍

1. the object of purchase shall remain the property of the seller until full settlement of the claims to which the seller is entitled on the basis of the purchase contract. If the buyer is a legal entity under public law, a special fund under public law or an entrepreneur who is acting in the exercise of his commercial or independent professional activity when concluding the contract, the retention of title shall also remain in force for claims of the seller against the buyer arising from the ongoing business relationship until settlement of claims to which the seller is entitled in connection with the purchase. At the request of the buyer, the seller is obliged to waive the retention of title if the buyer has indisputably fulfilled all claims in connection with the object of purchase and there is adequate security for the remaining claims from the ongoing business relationship. For the duration of the retention of title, the seller shall be entitled to possession of the registration certificate part II.

2. if the buyer does not pay the due purchase price and prices for ancillary services or does not pay them in accordance with the contract, the seller may withdraw from the contract and/or claim damages instead of performance in the event of culpable breach of duty by the buyer if he has unsuccessfully set the buyer a reasonable deadline for performance, unless the setting of a deadline is dispensable in accordance with the statutory provisions. If the seller is entitled to compensation instead of performance and takes back the object of purchase, the seller and buyer agree that the seller shall reimburse the usual sales value of the object of purchase at the time of taking it back. At the request of the buyer, which can only be expressed immediately after taking back the object of purchase, a publicly appointed and sworn expert, e.g. from Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH (DAT), shall determine the usual sales value at the buyer's discretion. The buyer shall bear the necessary costs of taking back and realizing the object of purchase. The realization costs amount to 5% of the usual sales value without proof. They shall be set higher or lower if the seller proves higher costs or the buyer proves that lower costs or no costs at all were incurred.

2. the shortening of the limitation period in clause 1, sentence 2 does not apply to damages based on a grossly negligent or intentional breach of obligations by the seller, his legal representative or his vicarious agent or in the event of injury to life, limb or health.

3. if the seller is liable under the statutory provisions for damage caused by slight negligence, the seller's liability shall be limited: Liability shall only exist in the event of a breach of material contractual obligations, such as those which the purchase contract intends to impose on the seller according to its content and purpose or the fulfillment of which is essential for the proper execution of the purchase contract and on the observance of which the buyer regularly relies and may rely. This liability is limited to the typical damage foreseeable at the time the contract was concluded. The personal liability of the legal representatives, vicarious agents and employees of the seller for damages caused by them through slight negligence is excluded. Clause 2 of this section shall apply accordingly to the aforementioned limitation of liability and the aforementioned exclusion of liability.

4 Irrespective of any fault on the part of the seller, any liability of the seller in the event of fraudulent concealment of a defect, from the assumption of a guarantee or a procurement risk and under the Product Liability Act shall remain unaffected.

b) Subsequent performance shall take place at the Seller's premises or at the location specified by the Seller, unless the Seller and Buyer agree otherwise.
