Liability in Camper Sales? Get Free Advice

Questioner

I sold a camper as a private individual. This camper was MOT approved, the buyer was able to view the camper in all aspects and waived a purchase inspection. Now the (lawyer of the) buyer holds me liable for matters that were already known at the time of purchase. He also holds my garage liable for 'missed' MOT points. He presents me with a dubious invoice from another garage and claims a substantial amount (including a minor service). He also claims a specified amount from my garage, together considerably more than the total invoice amount. The lawyer therefore claims costs twice. I do not see my garage and myself as liable for the matters that the buyer knowingly and willingly accepted at the time of purchase. I do wonder whether I can take steps against the lawyer in question because of the double claim and the submission of a dubious invoice.

You must first refute the content of the letter.

Thanks for the advice, I have already done that. The other party does not agree with my extensive answer, I await the possible next steps with confidence. It is a bit of a shame that the lawyer of the other party does not respond to my request for a read confirmation and so I have to send an SMS afterwards.
