John may have remedies under the Sale of Goods Act or Common Law principles, as the seller may have breached their statutory or common law obligations of providing goods that are of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose, and as described. The fact that the car had brand new tires but the interior upholstery was quite worn may suggest that the seller misrepresented the condition of the car. Furthermore, the fact that two of the tires were completely bald suggests that the seller may have breached their obligation to provide goods that are fit for purpose, as the tires were not safe for driving. The fact that the windshield wipers and heater stopped working also suggests that the car may not have been of satisfactory quality. John may be entitled to remedies such as repair, replacement, or refund under the Sale of Goods Act or Common Law principles.
