General Comments

I went to Motor Point after checking out target prices in What Car? magazine and then approaching a main dealer. Unfortunately the main dealer couldn't match my price so I decided to look elsewhere. After doing a bit of internet research I found several car supermarket' sites and compared prices on the model that I was interested in - a VW Golf 2.0 GT TDI 5dr. I later rang Motorpoint's customer call centre and it turned out that I would save over 2k on the price that I was quoted at the dealership, they also had the car that I wanted in stock .

With this in mind I arranged to travel down to Derby to view the car. The spec was great and as a parallel import from Germany everything was as you'd expect from a UK vehicle. I placed a deposit there and then.

Ask the right questions up front, make sure you know what you are getting and that you've carefully done your homework. The thing about car supermarkets is that you do save a lot of money, but you should be aware that for that reason you need to know exactly what you are getting and ask all the right questions.

I will definitely go back to Motorpoint again, I ve saved myself 2k by doing my homework and shopping around.
