5. Retention of title

5.1 General

If you are an entrepreneur, the goods, works and materials delivered by us remain our property until all current and future claims from the business relationship have been fully satisfied. Towards consumers, only the delivered product from the specific contract remains our property until the purchase price has been paid in full. You must treat the items under retention of title with care at all times. You assign a claim or replacement that you receive for the damage, destruction or loss of these items to us. Unless otherwise agreed below, you are not entitled to sell, give away, pledge or transfer the objects delivered to you under retention of title.

5.2 Garnishment and other impairments

If the thing subject to retention of title is seized or otherwise impaired by third parties, you must notify us immediately so that a lawsuit according to §771 ZPO can be raised. If the third party is unable to reimburse the judicial and extrajudicial costs of a lawsuit in accordance with Section 771 ZPO, you are liable for the loss we incurred.

5.3 Resale

If you are an entrepreneur, you are entitled to resell the reserved goods in the normal course of business. You assign the customer's claims from the resale of the reserved goods to us in the amount of the agreed final invoice amount (including sales tax). This assignment applies regardless of whether the purchased item was resold without or after processing. You remain authorized to collect the claim even after the assignment. The authority of us to collect the claim ourselves remains unaffected. However, we will not collect the claim as long as you meet your payment obligations from the proceeds received, are not in default of payment and, in particular, there is no application to open insolvency proceedings or payment is suspended.

5.4 Reorganization, processing and processing

Insofar as you are an entrepreneur, the processing, processing or transformation of the purchased item is always carried out in your name and on our behalf. In this case, your entitlement to the purchased item continues with the remodeled item. If the purchased item is processed with other objects that do not belong to us, we acquire co-ownership of the new item in the ratio of the objective value of the purchased item to the other processed items at the time of processing. The same applies in the event of mixing. If the mixing takes place in such a way that your thing is to be regarded as the main thing, it is agreed that you transfer proportional co-ownership to us and keep the resulting sole or co-ownership for us. In order to secure the claims against you, you also assign to us those claims that arise from a third party due to the connection of the reserved goods with a property; we accept this assignment now.

5.5 Withdrawal

If you act contrary to the contract, in particular in the event of late payment, but also in the event of filing for insolvency proceedings against your assets, we are entitled to take back the thing. In this case, taking back the goods does not constitute a withdrawal from the contract, unless we expressly declare this in text form.

5.6 Release of collateral

If the value of the collateral exceeds the value of the secured claims by more than 15 percent, we are obliged to release collateral upon your request.

6. Warranty for purchase contracts

6.1 Warranty claim

There are statutory warranty rights. A warranty claim can only arise with regard to the properties of the goods, reasonable deviations in the aesthetic properties of the goods are not subject to the warranty claim. In particular with regard to the descriptions, representations and information in our offers, brochures, catalogs, on the website and other documents, there may be technical and design deviations (e.g. color, weight, dimensions, design, scale, positioning, etc.), insofar as these changes are reasonable for you. Such reasonable reasons for change can result from customary fluctuations and technical production processes. No guarantee is given for damage resulting from improper installation, improper handling or use of the goods. Insofar as guarantees are given in addition to the warranty claims, the customer will find their exact conditions for each product. Possible guarantees do not affect the warranty rights.

By installing performance-enhancing components and / or removing a speed limit, there is the possibility that the consumption of fuel and lubricant changes or that maintenance intervals are shortened. The increased performance can result in a changed driving style with increased wear on tires and engines. This is not a material defect, since the resulting additional expenses are only a direct result of the increase in performance.

6.2 Reservation and explanations

In order to avoid incorrect use, the components offered by Luethen Motorsport GmbH must be installed by specialists in specialist workshops. Also due to errors that cannot be ruled out and ambiguous assignments, the parts assignment and the basic as well as special suitability for the respective vehicle and the intended use must be determined without any doubt before each installation. If the determination is not made without any doubt, the respective part must not be installed. For approvals for operation in public road traffic, only the ABE belonging to the respective product or the TÜV certificate and the conditions contained therein are decisive. The components manufactured and offered for racing use have, unless otherwise stated, no approval for use in public road traffic. Depending on the intended use, many of the components are designed for maximum performance and extreme loads with a short service life. These components can be "used up" after a short time without there being a material defect

6.3 Warranty to consumers

The risk of accidental loss or deterioration of the goods sold only passes to you when the goods are handed over. If you recognize that the outer packaging arrives damaged or if you notice any damage after receiving the goods, please let us know. However, there is no obligation to make such a notification, nor will the warranty rights be affected by a failure to notify. If the goods are defective, you can either request supplementary performance in the form of rectification or subsequent delivery. We can refuse the type of supplementary performance you have selected, without prejudice to Section 275 (2) and (3) of the German Civil Code, if it is only possible at unreasonable costs. In particular, the value of the item in a defect-free condition, the significance of the defect and the question of whether the other type of supplementary performance could be used without significant disadvantages for you. If defects are not remedied even after two attempts to repair them, you have the right to withdraw or a reduction.

6.4 Warranty towards entrepreneurs

In contrast to the legal warranty regulations, the following applies to entrepreneurs: in the event of a defect, we can perform the supplementary performance in the form of rectification of the defect or new delivery. The risk of accidental loss or deterioration of the item passes to you as soon as it is handed over to the person intended for transport. Entrepreneurs must report obvious defects immediately and non-obvious defects immediately after discovery in text form; Otherwise the assertion of warranty claims is excluded. Deadline is sufficient for the timely dispatch. The entrepreneur bears the full burden of proof for all claims, in particular for the defect itself, for the time the defect was discovered and for the timely notification of the defect.

6.5 Rights in the event of an insignificant defect

If there is only an insignificant defect, you have the right to a reasonable reduction in the purchase price, excluding the right of withdrawal.

6.6 Compensation for defects

No guarantee is given for damage resulting from improper handling or use. The following disclaimer is expressly pointed out.

6.7 Limitation

The warranty for used goods is 1 year. As far as you are an entrepreneur, the warranty for used goods is excluded and for new goods this is 1 year. An exception to this is the right of recourse according to § 478 BGB. The shortening of the limitation period expressly does not exclude liability for damage from injury to life, limb or health or in the case of intent or gross negligence. The provisions of the Product Liability Act remain unaffected.

7 Warranty for work contracts (custom-made products)

7.1 Warranty claim

There are statutory warranty rights. If the work is defective and you request supplementary performance, we can choose to remedy the defect or produce a new work. If defects are not remedied even after at least two attempts to repair them, you have the right to withdraw or a reduction.

7.2 Rights in the event of an insignificant defect

If there is an insignificant defect, you are only entitled to a reasonable reduction in the agreed wages, excluding the right of withdrawal.

7.3 Compensation for defects

No guarantee is given for damage resulting from improper handling or use. The following disclaimer is expressly pointed out.

7.4 Transfer of risk

The risk of accidental loss or deterioration of the work is only transferred to you upon acceptance of the work as part of warranty processing.

7.5 Notification

If you recognize that the outer packaging arrives damaged or if you notice any damage after receiving the goods, please let us know. However, there is no obligation to make such a notification, and no notification does not affect the consumer's warranty rights.

7.6 Limitation

Warranty claims expire one year after the transfer of risk, unless the construction of a building or a work, the success of which is the provision of planning or monitoring services. In these cases, the limitation period is five years. The shortening of the limitation period expressly does not exclude liability for damage from injury to life, limb or health or in the case of intent or gross negligence. The provisions of the Product Liability Act remain unaffected.

8. Liability

8.1 Disclaimer

We and our legal representatives and vicarious agents are only liable for intent or gross negligence. As far as essential contractual obligations (consequently those obligations, the observance of which is of particular importance for the achievement of the purpose of the contract) are affected, liability is also for slight negligence. Liability is limited to the foreseeable, contract-typical damage. In the event of a grossly negligent breach of non-essential contractual obligations, we shall only be liable to entrepreneurs in the amount of the foreseeable, contract-typical damage.

8.2 Reservation of liability

The above disclaimer does not apply to liability for damage to life, limb or health. The provisions of the Product Liability Act also remain unaffected by this disclaimer.

9. Final provisions

9.1 Place of jurisdiction

Our place of business is agreed as the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all legal disputes arising from this contract, provided that you are a businessman, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law.

9.2 Choice of law

Unless mandatory statutory provisions conflict with your home law, German law is deemed to have been agreed to the exclusion of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

9.3 Consumer dispute settlement procedure

The EU Commission has created an internet platform for the online settlement of disputes regarding contractual obligations from online contracts (OS platform). You can access the OS platform at the following link: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/. We are not willing and not obliged to participate in a dispute settlement procedure before a consumer arbitration board.

9.4 Severability clause

The ineffectiveness of individual provisions does not affect the validity of the remaining general terms and conditions.

Terms & Conditions for ratenkauf by easyCredit

1. Scope and general terms of use
The following terms and conditions shall apply between you and the retailer for all contracts concluded with the retailer for which ratenkauf by easyCredit (hereinafter referred to as “Ratenkauf”) is used.

In the event of dispute the general terms and conditions contained herein shall take precedence over any general terms and conditions of the retailer.

A “Ratenkauf” shall only be made available to customers who are deemed to be consumers according to § 13 BGB (the German civil code) and are aged 18 or over.

2. “Ratenkauf”
The retailer, with the support of the TeamBank AG Nürnberg, Beuthener Straße 25, 90471 Nürnberg (hereinafter referred to as TeamBank AG), shall provide “Ratenkauf” as a further payment option for your purchase on the internet.

The retailer shall be entitled to determine your credit worthiness. For further details please refer to the “Ratenkauf” data protection provisions on the Payment Page. In the event that the use of “Ratenkauf” is not possible due to insufficient credit worthiness or turnover limitations on the part of the retailer, the retailer shall be entitled to offer you an alternative payment option.

The contract for a “Ratenkauf” shall be concluded between you and the retailer. By using “Ratenkauf” you choose to pay the purchase price in monthly instalments. For an agreed fixed duration, monthly instalments shall be paid. In certain circumstances, the final payment may differ from the previous instalments. The goods shall remain the property of the retailer until payment has been made in full.

The receivables accrued through the use of „Ratenkauf“ shall be assigned to the Teambank AG in the form of an ongoing factoring agreement. Payments leading to a discharge of the debt may only be made to the Teambank AG.

3. Payment of Instalments by SEPA Direct Debit
Through the SEPA direct debit mandate issued with the “Ratenkauf” you authorise the Teambank AG to debit the outstanding payments from the current account indicated during the order process held at the bank specified by way of SEPA direct debit.

The Teambank AG shall give notice of the direct debit by e-mail at the latest one calendar day before the direct debit is due (pre-notification). The direct debit shall be executed no earlier than the date indicated in the pre-notification. The transaction can be carried out after but near to the due date.

If there is a reduction in the purchase price (e.g. through customer credit) between the pre-notification and the due date, the amount debited may differ from the amount stated in the pre-notification.

You are responsible for ensuring that your current account holds sufficient funds at the time that the payment is due. Your bank is not obliged to honour the direct debit in the event that your current account does not hold sufficient funds. If, due to a lack of funds held in the current account, an unjustified refusal by the account holder or account closure, the direct debit is returned, you shall be, without further reminders, deemed to be in default, unless the direct debit was returned in circumstances for which you were not liable.

The charges resulting from a returned direct debit shall be passed on to you and shall be settled by you.

In the event of default, the TeamBank AG shall be entitled to charge an appropriate reminder fee or interest on arrears at a rate of five percentage points higher than the base rate of the European Central Bank.

Due to the high costs associated with returned direct debits, we ask you not to refuse direct debits in the event of withdrawal from the purchase contract, returning the product or making a complaint. In such cases a reverse transfer will be made in agreement with the retailer or the account will be credited.
