On the balance of probabilities the Plaintiff’s claim against Defendant First failed because the hire‑purchase agreement displaced any contractual claim against the dealer/manufacturer; the Plaintiff’s claim against Defendant Second failed because the evidence did not establish that dealer‑installed parts (battery) caused the fire (insufficient, non‑expert/sepinaned witness and time gap) and the pleaded losses were not shown to have been suffered by the Plaintiff. Claims dismissed with costs on scale.
