Offered me a 6 month warranty-wise warranty, spoke to them two working days later told it had not be set up and that they are putting an AA warranty on it. This was not what I agreed with them. They also took an extra £100 cash off me for reasons I am unsure of??? The car has a load of issues not stated in the advert only apparent now, then the trader requested I commit fraud by using the RAC to bring it to them to do a repair, well the car was supposed to be in excellent condition and it is not fortunately I took a screen shot of the original advert. Stay well clear.

This company is not to be trusted, told car had full service history, a lie. Engine light came on, reported it to Arena Motor Company, said he would get back to me, never did. Took it to main dealer who diagnosed fault, told seller never got back to me. Never serviced car, told me they had. Clutch went after two weeks, told seller who fobbed me off with tale of it has to be un drivable to be covered under warranty. Main dealer said car un drivable.then no reply to calls, left voicemails, sent texts...no communication.taking him to court.would not pick car up to return to him. Needed car, my lady has cancer, cost £1400.00 to fix.

Avoid at all costs!! I was living overseas and trying to buy a car in Manchester. Initially, this seller was extremely friendly and I was lulled into a false sense of trust. I placed a deposit on a car from this dealership on the understanding that it would be refunded if the car was not as advertised when I viewed it. . When viewed, the car did not have a full service history as advertised and, as such, I decided not to proceed with the purchase. Over the last 5 months, this dealer has since avoided multiple phone calls and voice messages and, despite promises of transferring money back, never has. At this stage, they have started ignoring my calls or hanging up on me. I was silly and unfortunate enough to be taken in by them, please do not make the same mistake. I would not wish this dealer on my worst enemy.

DO NOT BUY FROM THEM. All very friendly to start with until they get your money and then they don't give a damn. They sell cars with full service history which it doesn't have. They don't even send the V5 documents off. When they say the car will get a full check up before you collect it please ignore this. All they do is take it off the forecourt to the car wash up the road and that's it. Stay away from these and go to a proper car dealer.

The reason I bought a car from this dealership is that they seemed entirely friendly, genuine and trustworthy as people. In fact they are the exact opposite. They would have been aware of serious faults in a car that they described as 'lovely', with 'no problems'. I don't think they should be able to get away with this - they are basically deceiving customers like myself in this case - so aim to take them to small claims court. It would be really good to hear from others on how they are getting on with that. Thanks.

I initially thought I was dealing with a good honest company but I have been left with a repair bill of over £1000 with much of it being work they promised was done pre-delivery. I have been lied to, decieved and taken advantage of. I am disabled and they knew how essential for my life it was to have a reliable car but I have been sold a car with faults that could have killed me or other road users. They also knew I use my car to take my 5 year old son to school and to get to my 93 year old dads house daily as his carer and they played on this to convince me it was the right car for me. I am pursuing this through trading standards and the small claims court and I hope this message can save any other car buyers from becoming a victim. I also paid Arena Motor Company for a warranty that turns out doesn't exist.

I wouldn't even buy a tyre from here let alone a car! When i collected car it hadn't even been cleaned or serviced as agreed. Had car half hour when something broke, I paid them to fit timing belt which was fitted wrong parts missing, then heater broke had take somewhere else even though under warranty. Completely poor service thought I was buying a car from someone genuine but being left going trading standards
