Awful experience
Awful experience. I brought a car from them. It was riddled with issues, as soon as I got home I called them and they said they would send out the parts. 3 parts.(drivers seat belt, boot struts, and a key)After a week I still not heard anything. Then I've taken the car to the garage as It wasn't driving as it should. We then discovered that the car needed front arms as these where cream crackered. I then called them to which they apologised about the parts not being here yet and to their credit sent me £1000 to rectify the issues related to the front arms. Another week has passed and still no parts. I've rang them again to be told the same script. "They're on the way to you" Another couple days has passed. Then my car went into limp mode and engine management light on. Turbo faulty, engine miss firing, broken petrol pump, broken boot struts. Drivers seat belt doesn't retract. Broken key. These where all the issues we had in 2 weeks. I'm now waiting for the garage to do the right thing. I have been reasonable and said I would swap it with another car on he's website but everyone I picked had been sold but weirdly enough the same cars that are sold are still up for sale on he's website and auto trader. He has said he is not willing to reject it, but would fix the car. I wouldn't trust this garage to replace a inner tube on a push bike let alone try to fix the numerous issues this car has.Its quiet clear from other reviews as well, they don't check they're cars before they put them out. They do bare minimum and to top it all of,they advertised the car with a very rare feature it was supposed to have. And after clarifying with main dealer that's not the case. Service manager is rude and useless
Update - I would like to correct several inaccuracies.
The vehicle was purchased on 7 May, not “a few months” before the engine fault developed. The initial faults—including the key, driver’s seatbelt, boot struts and concerns that the car was not driving correctly—were reported on 8 May. The worn front suspension arms were reported on 12 May, and on 29 May the vehicle developed a serious engine fault involving the engine management light, limp mode, turbo failure, misfiring cylinders and a fuel pump fault.
I acknowledge that you contributed £1,000 towards the suspension repair, and I have never disputed that. However, that payment related only to the suspension arms. It did not resolve the other faults that had already been reported or the later engine issues.
I also dispute the suggestion that this review is malicious. It reflects my genuine experience and is based on the timeline of events, which I can evidence.
Finally, following the publication of my review, my partner received a telephone call in which she was told that unless the review was removed, you would no longer help with the vehicle and that we would be “stuck with the car.” This further undermined our confidence in how this matter has been handled.
Rich I have all the evidence ie email threads, conversations we’ve had etc. say I’m lying one more time and I’ll post all of that on here as well.
You don’t run a company like this and you definitely don’t try to apply pressure to a young woman in the hope she will take down a review that is honest and fair.
