A 70-year-old Kinross man has been accused of selling faulty second hand cars without a licence.
Alexander McTavish, of Garden Cottage, High Street, denied that, on August 18 at Junction Road, Kinross, he sold a motor car in an unroadworthy condition and carried on business as a dealer in second-hand goods or articles without having a licence.
It was alleged that the car had chassis, suspension and brake system defects, the diesel fuel pipe and exhaust pipes were severely corroded, and the hydraulic power steering system was leaking, which meant that its use would involve a danger of injury.
