Bought undeclared Cat N car is there anything I can do?

I sold the VW High Up this week private adverts for similar age and mileage were £4700-£5200 let we buy any car have it for £4100 as just could not be arsed with hassle of people like you, no offence.

I'm sure you wouldn't be hiding things like this in your listings though. Like I said, the guy explicitly stated he damaged the wing mirror... but it's there damaged before he bought it. If he's lying about that he's probably lying about the Cat N thing. I bought the car with the hope I could sell it for a similar price a few months after owning it but the Cat N mark gives its value a hit. I've been driving an MOT failure for some time and had to buy something quick as I work 7 days and am too worn out for this car rubbish.

Haven't laughed at a thread as much as this one for a good while, wife keeps asking why I'm laughing.

So many errors in this and trying to blame the seller, as many many people have mentioned you didn't ask the correct questions so he didn't lie and now you've had your fingers burned it surely must be someone else's fault right.

He said in person the car wasn't in any accidents when my friend pointed at the log book being clear with no history of accidents but I don't see how that would help unless it was recorded.
 
Is it a bad idea to get the car valued at a garage or will that make me more angry?

HPI valued it at £2,460 trade-in and £3,360 private but "This valuation does not take into account any damage history this vehicle may have."
