Overview

Between October 2006 and September 2015, many UK consumers and businesses may have overpaid for new cars and vans due to inflated delivery charges. This situation arose from a cartel involving major shipping companies that coordinated prices, affecting vehicle shipments to the UK.

A legal action led by consumer advocate Mark McLaren has resulted in a significant settlement aimed at compensating those impacted by these unlawful practices. If you bought or leased a new vehicle during this period, you might be eligible for compensation.
