Death Trap!! Trading Standards Called Me Today!!

I brought a car from them in July 2013! I P/X'd my perfectly functional Renault Clio in which he ripped me off and tried selling for over twice what he gave me for it. As well as this he charged me hundreds of pounds on top of it for a Renault Laguna, with more miles than it stated. My own fault for not noticing I Know! He then tried charging me hundreds here and there for paperwork things that were missing. The reason I needed a new car is because I had a new 2 week old baby! The car they sold me, and helped me with baby seat etc. and even met my 2 week old daughter, had dodgy breaks which sometimes didn't even work, and the car would lose power unexpectedly, and also when ever the Indicators went on! Not very good when losing power going round roundabouts or on the motorway! I couldn't believe these sick people (Stan) would knowingly put a whole family, including a 2 week olds life in danger. Anyway I went to trading standards and had honestly not thought anything of it, until today, 18 months later they called me saying the case was progressing through court! They are calling me back with details again so if anyone wants to contact them or add any more evidence against them then let me know. Hopefully people are still looking at this site.

Thank you.

Finance Unpaid

We sold a car which still had finance on, the manager at woolston car supermarket assured us he would settle the finance. This all occurred in October last year after numerous phone calls to the car sales and the finance company it is still not paid and we are now facing legal action!!!!! Cannot believe these people can be so evil and are still ripping people off. We have taken legal advice and are awaiting the outcome although I don't hold out much hope.

Avoid At All Costs

FIRST AND FOREMOST AVOID WOOLSON CAR SUPERMARKET LIKE THE PLAGUE.

I was looking for a reasonably cheap car for my son when I saw an advert for Peugeot 306 with 12 Mth MOT and 6 Mth warranty as advertised by Woolston Car Supermarket. We live nearly 60 miles away but decided to pay a visit.

When we arrived the car was dirty but just needed a clean. However it had not been mot’d and we were told that a new mot would be provided along with a 6 month warranty. We negotiated a price (£1850) and paid a £200 deposit. It would take the garage 2 ot3 days to get the MOT done and some other remedial work. They also agreed to deliver the car to our chosen location.

Anyway, after three days we were told all was OK and when the balance (£1650) was paid to them, they would deliver the car the next day. This we did but no car delivered. After 3 – 4 weeks and much shouting they delivered the car – but no new MOT or any evidence that they had tried to get it MOT’d. After threatening legal action and me providing a cost estimate for the MOT, they agreed both verbally and in writing that they would underwrite the costs. We had the car MOT’d and I provided them with the invoice. Guess what – 3 months on and still no repayment, or warranty or Registration document.

After engaging a debt collecting agency I subsequently learnt that he had 2 judgments against him already for £146 and £2280 on 22 and 7 November 2013 respectively.

Woolston Car Supermarket are completely untrustworthy, as are the rest of his team.

If anyone wants to join forces and go after this rogue feel free to add something to this review section.

Death Trap !

We brought a car from Stan in January 2013 from a place called

Southampton trade centre which was situated on the

Same site as his others !

Lies after lies our car lost power and jolted violently in the

Duel carriageway with my 5 year old in the back .

Frightened the life out of us all !

Stan told us it was a safety feature !

3 days later same again ! This time nearly causing a collision

With a lorry !

Paid for own diagnostics with renault came back

With 4 error codes and needed valves replacing

In gear box had a quote of £900

Stan said he would fix and gave us a courtacy car

Which was a ford focus that looked like I had been pulled

From a river ! Mouldy and damp inside with rubbish

Strewn on seats and footwells would not even put my

Child in it !

4 days later we got our car back and have since had to replace

Window switches / sensors and light sensors and various diagnostics

As stan stopped answering calls and texts !

Paid £2800 for this car an have cost lots more in repair !

Exactly The Same As The Other Reviews Which Is Qui

Exactly the same as the other reviews which is quite astounding really that no one has taken this company to a small claims court, we'll I have, I've spoken to trading standards and got an 8 page narrative, evidentiary support to back this up , witness statements and a hell of a lot paperwork signed by the manager of the car supermarket. They will already of been served court papers and now just waiting for a reply. I will not back down and I've made sure they are still in the same place which is on hazel road in Southampton. I will also print of these reviews and place these in front of the judge so he can see how many good hard working people are getting treated like this by them. I will update on this when I get an outcome on this but I urge you to pay £95 and take him to court as if you have as much evidence as I have then what have you got to lose.

I feel as strongly as you do and would love to be in touch with you directly.

Stan is the dupe ridden hard by Burbage. Will be bankrupt and facing criminal charges .

Burbage has assets so need to pierce/lift corporate veil and prove Burbage is a shadow director.

Vid on daily echo http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/video/3104915931001/?ref=vidshare has dupe fingering Burbage as involved in trade.

Best is Stan giving evidence of Burbages controlling influence.

Slippy character B

google fort wallington car sales for most recent stuff

Whitey76

Thanks, I've also got the northern echo on the case to as have a lot of people he has ripped off

Whitey76

Go through trading standards and they help you with all your paperwork and they written a narrative in order and put all my evidence so it's looks and sounds professional, I then paid £95 to the small claims court and they sent them a letter saying they had 2 weeks to comply. It's a start and il carry on till I get what I want

CarlessCarlos

can sue them if you get home addresses. No hiding behind company if misrepresentation proved.

Avoid!! Woolston Car Supermarket/ Fort Wallington Car Sales

I would give them 0 stars if it were possible!! AVOID THEM AT ALL COSTS!!!!

I know they are no longer woolston car supermarket but are trading as Fort Wallington Car sales - they seem to think they could make a dissapearing act in the middle of the night and move all their cars.

I've heard so so many stories of them turning customers literally to TEARS outside their premises. The police and trading standards have been informed by many people but still not taking notice. we're hoping that the daily echo taking this up will bring more attention to these kretins and encourage authorities to make a difference! THEY NEED TO BE STOPPED!!

my story is very similar to many others - bought a car 4 months ago... it broke down right after... they said theyd repair it... took it back... broke down AGAIN... back to the garage... car didnt ever get repaired and is STILL sat in the garage not road worthy...they also have our part exchanged car which they refuse to give back even though we have recieved no money or no car and no refund!!!

THey have even given death threats to my family!!! threatening to send thugs around and to stab us!

DONT TRUST A SINGLE WORK THAT COMES OUT OF THEIR MOUTHS. These guys have had 5 different companies in the past year! obviously to avoid any costs if legal action is taken.

The word needs to get out there to stop them from trading!!!

I hope they get what they deserve!!!!!!!!!!!!

SPEAAAKK OUT!!!

Farudster Operating In Hampshire

Have gone by names such as Motorpoint Car Sales, hampshire vehicle sales, Woolston Car Supermarket. Currently trading as Fort Wallington Car Sales on autotrader and as dealer "sales" on Vivastreet.

If you call them they pass themselves off as South Coast Car sales and Fareham Car Centre.

Do not buy from them . Do not sell to them.

Hi. I Bought A Car From Woolston Car Supermarket W

Hi. I bought a car from Woolston Car Supermarket which is under the Directorship of a Stan Rudgly. Long story short the car has had issues ever since I bought it. After some digging on Google searches and finding out other names associated with Woolston Car Supermarket a few names keep appearing. I have created a Blog post for others top share their experiences with and hopefully by doing this others will not get caught out by this dodgy outfit. Woolston Car Supermarket is no longer their but I have no doubt they will set this up again. Please take a look and share so we can spread the word as much as possible and rid the car sales market of this cretin.

I can tell you just where the pigs are as they have done it to me

darcygirl

Nope they have moved again and are now trading in fair oak southampton had the pleasure of getting ripped of by them the last 10days

me62

I suggest you gang up and turn up on there busiest day,( Saturday) to tell people what they are like. You should be able to get 100 people together as they fiddled huge numbers of customers. they are selling 140 cars a month. Use your blog.

I hear the echo are on there case.

I am told they are on there 4th company since Feb 2013 and the authorities are doing nothing.

Landladylyn

I also bought a car from Woolston car Supermarket and was finally delivered a completely different car than I had bought! The car that was dropped off up the road from where I live, by truck, they would not have been able to drive it to me because it is a scrap vehicle.

They refuse to answer any calls or emails as they already have my £2,500.00.

I am trying every avenue to try and get my money back from them.

Was Woolston Car Supermarket Now Fortwallingtoncarsales

Woolston car supermarket now moved to Fareham and trading as Fort Wallington Car sales.

you can change your name but your still the same people.

Bought a car from them in December pointed out a couple of things that were wrong with it when we looked at it, I was told these will be sorted. Picked up car over a week later the work was not done, try phoning they never answer the phone until the afternoon. Took the car back they had it for over a week and never done anything to it. try phoning again they never answer. They presumably booked the car in for repair at garage so checked with that garage for booking no its not booked in. went back to them. They told me it was another garage went to that garage no booking. Went back to Woolston car supermarket they pretend to phone up and confirm booking. Go to that garage next day no booking, go back to Woolston car supermarket they book it over the phone with another garage go to that garage and he said don’t like doing work for them will need payment before I can release the car after the work is done, try phoning Woolston car supermarket no answer so go over there and notice they have moved a lot of cars out, said to them about this they said they have taken them for mot and making space for new stock. Went back to garage and told him what’s going on, so never got the work done as I knew he would not go and pay for it. I’ve now had the work done at my expense (£350) and will be trying to recover it from them. We shall see.

Went back to Woolston car sales in the evening six men there drinking beer and a nasty smell of the wacky baccy about. He was still in denial about moving premises. Got into a verbal confrontation with them and he then told me to get out of his office.

So before buying a second hand car check the company is not owned by the same people.

My partner and I have had all the same issues as everyone else.

We picked up the car last week and there was no tax and they assured us it was done and in the post along with the log book (was not given the temp slip) got home and phoned the police and DVLA and nothing was logged. phoned up all week and they promised "by tomorrow they will come and do it" as you can guess no luck. Drove down today and they had packed and gone spoke to the person who sold us the car on his mobile and he said he quit as they owed him money and they had moved to winchester as their building had been damage to roof etc.

chech out fort wallington car sales owned by stan rudgley same director as woolston car supermarket.

SDC1973

I Have a source that has stated that they are now located in Winchester. Don't think they have just run had a call today from the owner offering to repair the faults to my car I brought at the start of December. He was very polite and has offered to collect my car and supply me with a replacement whilst mines in for repair. He said he had taken over the business in November and has been plagued by staffing problems and break ins since. He sounded very sorry and couldn't apologise enough. Lets hope he follows his word and collects my car as he said.

did you know they have now changed there name and moved to fareham.
