Obviously, it makes a big difference WHY you are making a deposit
on a car.  You should not make the deposit for as little as an
understanding that the dealer will process your order.  The obvious
thing is to anticipate the circumstances in which you would want
your deposut back, and make them conditions at the time of deposit:

- deposit will be refunded on <such a date> if car is not delivered.

- deposit will be refunded if delivered cars lacks <certain features>,
or merchantability.

You want your money to wirk for you while the car dealer has it, so the
dealer must have some incentive to deliver.  If the dealer is not
willing to accept conditions, find another dealer, or make no deposit.
