Total waste of space is the best way to describe them. No customer service evident and because he never answers his phone he obviously doesn't have a clue about running a business. When you look at his website, there's nothing for sale and hasn't been for some time. The phone numbers listed are never answered. So why would you want to buy a car off him. Save yourself the frustration and pass him by.....as widely as possible.
The one star is for the pre-purchase care. Everything was excellent. In April, I messaged the garage at gone 7pm, and was called straight away to discuss the car. Within a couple of days, everything was sorted and a date was arranged for us to travel from Cornwall to Oldham to PX. On the test drive of the car, the injector seal popped off. No biggie, it happens and Avanti Group paid to have it fixed then and there before the drive back to Cornwall. The next day, it happened again. I let the garage know, who called me at 10pm to talk me through things and agreed for us to take it to a local mechanic to be diagnosed and repaired, I was told they would pay this through the warranty. When the car was ready to be collected, I spoke to Avanti who said that if I paid the bill - I would be reimbursed directly from them. This conversation happened in May, and after months of me chasing, multiple messages/calls/emails being ignored, I resulted in sending out a warning letter to advise I would be contacting the small claims court if I was not reimbursed the £500. This payment was only received yesterday, 25th September. Upon exchange of my car, it was agreed that they would pay the finance off of my Peugeot and the amounts were all agreed. However, Avanti did not pay the finance off on my Peugeot for a further 3 months. This meant that I had to pay a further £480 for a car I no longer had. This took months of me chasing to finally be rectified, and I have not received or been offered reimbursement for this. I did not receive notification from the DVLA to confirm the transfer of my Peugeot, or the purchase of my Touareg. Further to this, I received two warning letters from Manchester Police for the Peugeot being driven around without insurance, still in my name. This resulted in me having to pay a fine to the DVLA. I, again, have received no reimbursement or offer of reimbursement for this despite notifying the garage and providing the invoice/receipt. I have had to contact the DVLA directly to obtain the V5 for my Touareg, and to remove my name from the Peugeot. I have also had to contact Manchester Police and Trading Standards due to the service received from Avanti Motor Group, and the car being driven around illegally in my name. Personally, I would not recommend this garage unless you have a spare 6 months after purchase to chase your tail and get things sorted. In looking at companies house and auto trader, I also believe this company to be trading under the business '88 Motorhouse'.

Do not touch this dealer with a huge barge pole. He is the biggest rip-off merchant going and given the chance, will take you for everything you've got. Refund a deposit? No chance. Lie and tell you what you want to hear, absolutely. Don't fall for the initial charm. And mr. dealer (Adam, if that is even your real name), please don't insult my intelligence by saying I have the wrong dealer, I don't. Interesting how all reviews are either 5* or 1*, nothing in between (on all sites), what does that tell you? all 5* are written in the same manner (pushing the 1*'s down). I wouldn't even advise to act with caution, I would just say full on AVOID. He made my friend's life hell. Please save yourself the hassle from this snake. How he gets away with trading like this is beyond me.
Abbie in response to AVOID like the plague..
For the record, his name is not Adam. According to the bank account I have details for, it is Afran. According to Companies House, it is Ali. Absolutely horrendous experience with this garage!
