German court denies VW buyer bid to cancel purchase

Calling his Tiguan SUV effectively unsellable, a German consumer has tried to get the dealership to cancel his purchase of the vehicle. Today a court denied that bid but the man said he will appeal to a higher court.  The court decision says the dealer was not to blame for the Volkswagen emissions scandal. VW admitted in September it had fitted illegal software on up to about 11 million cars worldwide that mitigated emissions during tests but stopped doing so on the road. The plaintiff took legal action against the dealership in Bochum where he bought his Tiguan saying the manipulations by VW had rendered the model unsellable
