This clause 3.2 shall survive termination of the Contract.
3.3 The Supplier reserves the right to amend the Goods Specification if required by any applicable statutory or regulatory requirement, and the Supplier shall notify the Customer in any such event.

4. Delivery of Goods
4.1 Due to availability of parts and materials, any dates quoted for delivery of the Goods are approximate only, and the time of delivery is not of the essence. The Supplier shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of the Goods that is caused by a Force Majeure Event or the Customer’s failure to provide the Supplier with adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the supply of the Goods.
4.2 If the Supplier fails to deliver the Goods, the Customer having paid for the Goods, its liability shall be limited to the costs and expenses incurred by the Customer in obtaining replacement goods of similar description and quality in the cheapest market available, less the price of the Goods. The Supplier shall have no liability for any failure to deliver the Goods to the extent that such failure is caused by a Force Majeure Event or the Customer’s failure to provide the Supplier with adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the supply of the Goods.
4.3 If the Customer fails to take delivery of the Goods within fourteen Business Days of the Supplier notifying the Customer that the Goods are ready, then except where such failure or delay is caused by a Force Majeure Event or by the Supplier’s failure to comply with its obligations under the Contract in respect of the Goods:

(a) Charge the Purchaser a storage fee of £75 per week (prorated for part weeks) until the Goods are delivered to the Purchaser’s premises (Storage Charges); and/or
(b) resell or otherwise dispose of part or all of the Goods and, after deducting reasonable storage and selling costs, account to the Customer for any excess over the price of the Goods or charge the Customer for any shortfall below the price of the Goods.
4.5 The Purchaser shall notify the Supplier of all loss, damage or non-delivery of Goods within seven days of the date of despatch by the Supplier, such date of despatch being the date of receipt by the Purchaser of the Supplier’s invoice, advice note or other notification to the Supplier that the Goods have been despatched.    Failure to provide this notice shall render the Purchaser liable for any loss and damage suffered.
4.6 If the Supplier delivers up to and including 10% less than the quantity of Goods ordered by the Customer by the due date for Delivery, the Customer may not reject them, but where the Supplier fails to deliver the remaining Goods within 28 days of  receipt of notice from the Customer that the wrong quantity of Goods was delivered, the Supplier shall make a pro rata adjustment to the invoice for the Goods.

5. Quality of Goods
5.1 By their very nature, competition, development & prototype goods are highly engineered and although every care and attention is paid to their design or assembly, they are short life items so the Supplier gives no warranty that the Goods manufactured by the Supplier shall be of satisfactory quality (within the meaning of the Sale of Goods Act 1979).

(a) the Customer gives notice in writing to the Supplier within 24 hours’ time of discovery that some or all of the Goods are not of satisfactory quality.
(b) the Supplier is given a reasonable opportunity of examining such Goods; and
(c) the Customer (if asked to do so by the Supplier) returns such Goods to the Supplier’s place of business at the Customer’s cost,
the Supplier may, at its option, repair or replace the defective Goods, or refund the price of the defective Goods in full.
5.3 The Supplier shall not be liable for the Goods’ failing to be of satisfactory quality if:
(a) the Customer makes any further use of such Goods after giving a notice in accordance with clause 5.2;
(b) the defect arises because the Customer failed to follow the Supplier’s oral or written instructions as to the storage, installation, commissioning, use or maintenance of the Goods or (if there are none) good trade practice regarding the same.
(c) the defect arises as a result of the Supplier following any drawing, design or specification supplied by the Customer.
(d) the Customer alters or repairs such Goods without the written consent of the Supplier.
(e) the defect arises as a result of fair wear and tear, wilful damage, negligence, or abnormal working conditions; or
