Good Points

Large selection of cars to choose from, no pressure salesperson, Cars unlocked to browse unmessed. Although you do meet a few tyre kickers, or boy racers looking around the scoobys.


Bad Points

Test drive route to the local pub car park and back half mile there and half mile back with a roundabout half way there, did not test all the gears as ran out of road and speed restriction on short route prevented this, and it was an auto box so could have been a longer faster road to test gear change. The main dual carriageway A50 runs along side the Castle Donnington depot.


General Comments

All in all a good experience to me, a new way of buying a used motor, I know part ex is abit low, but I do not use any printed CAP or Parkers guide, just go onto eBay and look for you ' re make and model car that IS SELLING not the advertised price but the true second hand market price which is the selling price (they are not going to give you more than they can buy one on EBay for). On my Part chop I was offered £1300 against a £15000 1 year old car, I negotiated another £100 by asking for £1500, you guessed it they met me in the middle, the tax on my old motor runs out in a month, but NO WAY would they get a 6 or 12 month road tax from me for NOTHING. If the car was going in P/X the tax if worth anything SHOULD NOT be part of the valuation. If so WHY did I have to pay for my road tax on the new car?
Extra warranty did not apply to my new car as two years manufacturers warranty still left to run,
Finance at 10.9%? Why have their finance, if you have good to excellent credit rating why limit yourself to high interest rates, I got mine at 7.2 and saved £1800 in charges, even in this Credit crunch we are going through.
So to sum it up, YES buy from them, LOOK at the part exchange price against what you ' re motor is fetching on eBay mine was £1500 to £1800 on eBay and got £1400, shop around for you ' re own finance.
Go to a dealer and test drive their car then return to Available Car to buy and save on a main dealer price.
Also check the site at Sutton in Ashfield they may have a better offer.
