Tried to enquire about a car and was spoken to incredibly rudely and seemed to be very defensive when enquiring where they were based so i could come and see the cars. Very suspicious of this garage and clearly from other reviews it was a good idea to avoid them. From the phone call 'ANGRY MR.LITTLE MAN SYNDROME' is the only way i could describe him.

I went to view the car(Peugeot 307 52 plate) with my five year old son, didn't look like a bad car but found a fault on the exhaust which was blowing quite heavy and held up with plastic tie backs. I mentioned the fault to the dealer and was guaranteed that it would be fixed,

so therefore I left a deposit and told them I would be back within a few days to collect the car when I could arrange a lift down. The next morning I had a phone call basically demanding me to collect the car A.S.A.P as they needed space for other vehicles in their lott and other people were ringing them to purchase the car that I had left a deposit on. I explained that I didn't see what the rush was as I had left the deposit and explained the situation as of when I would collect (which was fine with them when I left them the deposit)but all of a sudden they wanted the full ammount straight away.

I went to collect the car a few days later and was told that the exhaust problem had been fixed which seemed o.k for what I could see. I paid the rest of the balance and headed home. As I was driving home the car started banging from the underside. When I checked it was the exhaust hanging off. I checked the M.O.T certificates and this was down as an advisory stating slight corrosion on rear exhaust, which was clearly not... but a more serious matter, but this advisory was from before I even viewed the car, so they had a second chance through me mentioning it, and still didn't do anything about it.

When I eventually got home I phoned the dealer and explained the situation and he didn't really seem too bothered and told me to travel 45 mins to bring it back to him so that he could patch it up as he wouldn't replace the exhaust. I asked him that if I did, would he refund my travel costs as it was not a fault of my own and he declined. I also asked if he could foot the bill for me getting it fixed at a local garage which he also declined too. Stay away from these people they are nice to your face, but in reality they're con-artists.

I found out that the car dealers also have their own garage where they do their own M.O.T.'s. How convenient!

I only got it home today. Will be back on here if I find anything else wrong as I'm fairly certain I will I will.

I had been looking for an AUDI A4 2.5 TDI QUATTRO AVANT for a long time. I was informed by a friend of this one for sale in cheshire so I made the initial phone call to enquire about the vehicle and at the end of the converstion I knew that was the car for me. I found the gentleman that I spoke to to be very welcoming and helpful and the thing that I really liked was the fact that they did not try to sell me the car on the phone like others have done in the past. The problem that I had was the fact that they were approx 195 miles from me so the one thing that I didnt want to do was to make the journey and to be disappointed when I got there as I had been in the past. They assured me that that would not be the case so I made my arrangements and travelled up to see the car. On my arrival they picked me up from the train station and drove me back to their place of business where their hospitallity was second to none. When i saw the car I was so glad that I made the journey and when I test drove it and looked over the relevant documentation I was in no doubt that the car was coming back with me. Like I said (THE BEST CAR IVE EVER BOUGHT)

STAY AWAY!!!! He sells vehicles via autotrader under 4 trading names. Bought a car that was advertised differently to what it actually was. Defects very well hidden especially in the dark. Paid a lot of money for a 'working car' that wasn't even road worthy. (Name removed) is incredibly rude and will ignore calls and emails as much as possible, even refused to accept a 'recorded' letter. The invoice you are given is cleverly done so that when you sign it you sign as a trader and not a consumer, this way if you take him to court for selling you such a faulty vehicle you then have to prove you are in fact not a trader but just a consumer despite signing next to where it says traders signature. The invoice stating you are wavering your rights under the Sale of Goods Act is not given until AFTER the sale has taken place. The invoice also states that the mileage is not guaranteed. Clocking perhaps? Very cleverly done. I had grounds to take the company to court but decided against as I sold the faulty car, honestly (defects clearly stated), to someone who wanted to fix it up.

I would not recommend this dealer to ANYONE! Stay away, save your money for someone who has a conscience  so they can enjoy their caribbean holiday (yes he jetted off to the caribbean!). I wish I had read the other bad reviews on this trader first.
