Stadium Finance Ltd v Robbins: 1962

A motor car was goods for the purposes of the Act. The word ‘goods’ in the section does not appear to have anything other than the ordinary meaning, there is no reason why (a motor car) does not come within the definition ‘goods’. The word ‘goods’ must include all chattels of which physical possession is possible, notwithstanding that they are not easily moveable.
