This is an appeal preferred against the decree in O.S.No.126 of 1990 of the Sub Court, Kozhikode and also as against the counter-claim filed by the defendant in the said case. The suit was one for return of advance amount of Rs.14,000 and some other amount due to the plaintiff. It is the case of the plaintiff that defendant agreed to sell a Jeep bearing Regn.No.KED 3290, a 1987 model and therefore he agreed to purchase it for Rs.1,00,500. As per the agreement an amount of Rs.14,000 was paid as advance on the date of agreement. An amount of Rs.61,000 was to be paid on 31-1-1990 and the balance amount of Rs.25,500 was to be paid on 28-2-1990. As the plaintiff wanted to raise some loan he got the document particulars from the defendant and forwarded to the financier and thereafter the financier informed him that the vehicle was a 1986 model. The plaintiff had entered into an agreement with the defendant bona fidely believing that the jeep is of 1987 model as represented by the defendant and that was the reason for the purchase of the jeep. It is the case of the plaintiff that the defendant has misrepresented and therefore he is entitled to the return of the advance amount
