According to the Léo Magalhães team, after the purchase, they discovered a raid that occurred before the acquisition. He then tried to negotiate the return of the property, but was unable to do so. ‘Estadão’ spoke to the manager of the dealership, who said that the singer knew about the accident in which the car was involved
The Goiás court ruled that the country singer Leo Magalhaes pay the All Motors dealership, in Goiânia, after purchasing a Ferrari for R$511 thousand in 2014. Estadao, the artist’s press office sent a note (read in full below) in which he stated that he had not paid the rest of the sum because, after the acquisition of the asset, he had discovered a vehicle crash that had occurred before the acquisition. The store manager claims that the singer knew about the accident in which the car was involved, but he guarantees that he sold the car in perfect condition.
Also in a note, Léo specifies that he paid almost 50% of the purchase price. However, All Motors’ lawsuit against the musician states that he paid approximately 38% of the sales price. Now, the court’s decision, released Nov. 20, is that he will pay the rest of the car debt to the dealership.
Depending on the process to which the Estadao having had access, the lawyers claim that Léo paid two checks without expected funds: the first, for an amount of 140 thousand reals; the second, for R$53 thousand – approximately 35% of the sale value – and requires more than R$1.7 million, due to interest adjustment.
If Léo disobeys the ruling, the judge in the case has authorized lawyers to transmit a copy of the decision to music streaming platforms. Therefore, the amounts that the artist collects from royalties will be directed to the licensee.
Edmundo Pedroso, director of the All Motors dealership, in Goiânia, was responsible for the sale of the Ferrari to Léo. In the report, he said the singer was aware of the car accident, which occurred in 2005, but claimed he repaired the vehicle before selling it. He also commented that, therefore, he sold the property for less than its value.
“He knew, yes [que o carro tinha sofrido uma batida em 2005]I bought it cheaper, he refused to pay me and now I will pay R $ 1.7 [milhão]without a real discount,” he said by phone.
After this stage, he wants to prove that Léo Magalhães bought the car only to exchange it for the private plane he has. The manager says the car is now blocked in his name, in Sao Paulo.
“He can’t even give me my car back because a week later [da compra], exchanged the car for the plane. She bought the car just to change planes,” she said. “If you don’t pay me, it will be the next chapter of this story.”
The compatriot said he had negotiated the return of the car, but without success. “Also because this information [da batida] it had not been said, as he trusted the shop and never thought he would be harmed in this way. He then stopped the remaining checks as the owner refused to take the vehicle back,” the statement reads.
The Léo Magalhães team also claims to have taken legal action after the disagreement between the shop and the artist and the inability to return the Ferrari. The singer claims his rights as a consumer.
“It should be emphasized that this is not a low-cost item. Furthermore, the consumer needs to know all the conditions of the purchased item at the time of purchase, so that there are no future problems of this type,” he adds.
After the accusations of Edmundo Pedroso, the Estadao He tried to contact Léo’s press office once again for clarification. However, they did not answer questions and reiterated the position expressed in a statement.
Note by Léo Magalhães
“In 2014, singer Léo Magalhães bought a Ferrari in a shop, of which he has always been a bona fide customer and fulfilled all his obligations and had even purchased several cars in that shop.
He ended up paying almost 50% of the value of the Ferrari, two months after the purchase during maintenance the singer discovered that the car had already been in an accident, since then he began to negotiate the return of the object, especially since this information was not provided he said, because he trusted the shop and never thought such damage would be done to him, he then stopped the remaining checks, as the owner refused to take the vehicle back.
Since then, a legal dispute has begun, which is still subject to appeal. It is worth remembering that this is not a low-cost good. Furthermore, the consumer needs to know all the conditions of the purchased good at the time of purchase, so that future problems of this nature do not occur.
Léo Magalhães will try in every way to ensure that your rights as a consumer are preserved and recognized.”
