Bob sold used cars, but he had little or no knowledge with respect to the technical aspects of any of the vehicles that he sold. Ray was seeking to buy a Honda Civic and Bob gave his opinion as to the speed of the car and its durability. Ray subsequently finalized the purchase and took control of the car.

Two weeks after the purchase, the Honda Civic broke down and required extensive mechanical repairs. Ray is angry and is of the view that Bob misrepresented the condition of the car when he sold it. Ray is of the opinion that as a Used Car Salesmen, Bob should have known that the car was indeed in poor mechanical condition.
