I was wondering what people's opinions are of getting a buyer/sellers contract for the sale/purchase of a car.

Anyone just hand over the cash and sign the v5 away ?

I found one on the AA website, basically says the car is sold as seen with no warranties implied or given, but wondered what value they have.

here is the AA one

I have used that one before, if only for nothing else, buyers seem to like to have a piece of paper, with an address and signature on it. I don't think it holds much legal weight for anything, apart from the handover of the cash.
