Yes of course you can.
Write a letter before action to the dealer, setting out what happened, and hold them responsible. It was plainly their fault. Complain that they are in breach of the implied covenants for title in section 12(2) Sale of Goods Act 1979. Demand that they pay you the loss otherwise you'll sue them. It's very easy to issue a claim in the county court. I mean, really easy peasy. Main thing is to be clear about what happened and what you want - you will see what I mean when you fill in the court forms. Will cost you £30 if you do it at the court office, £25 if you do it on Money Claims On Line. You will get your money back from the defendant (ie the dealer). They have no defence, so they should pay up.
