Cathal Dempsey sued over alleged false mileage on seven trucks in the High Court on 2 May 2018, with the case adjourned for two weeks. He claims the vehicles were sold with mileage records of about 500,000km but some had travelled almost 1m km.

The defendants deny breach of contract, misleading mileage assurances and claims that the trucks were defective or unfit for purpose. The adjournment followed a dispute over whether technical mileage evidence could be given by the proposed expert or had to come from others who examined the vehicles.
