Adam agreed to buy a 1925 Rolls Royce from Edwin, a vintage car dealer. they entered into a contract for the purchase of the car at an agreed price of 500 000. Edwin subsequently refused to go through with the contract having heard on the grapevine that there was an Arabian sheikh on the lookout for one who prepared to pay up to 700000.

Advice Adam with respect to what remedies are available to him as a result of the breach of contract by Edwin.

Would you advice be different to what remedies available to him if the motor vehicle was a late model of Mercedes Benz?
