"LET DOWN "

I bought a car from Cardiff 2 weeks ago the service was fantastic. Unfortunately I was told if I forgot anything in my part ex that there’s nothing to worry about as the car won’t be touched until I bring log book back. To my surprise I returned 6 days later with log book. I asked if they could get my sun glasses out of the car and my private plates. To be told the car as been taken to a different location and was told they will sort it. Ive called at least 10 times been promised I’ll get a call back but nothing. Then magically the car is for sale in Cardiff obviously someone who works the have stolen them. I wouldn’t mind but they were a gift of my kids for Father’s Day at a cost of £110.

Spend a frustrated 2 1/2 hours seeing a car I had reserved not fully valeted. It was sent back while I waited (with a small baby) to come back still dirty and with another cars log book still in the glove box, as well as its own one (so that area clearly not even checked never mind cleaned.) Additional scratches viable following second clean, but so late with a long journey home had to take a decision. When collecting the two keys was presented with one and then I was asked to prove that that I had signed for 2 keys! Was told repeatedly they were busy yet staff outnumbered 2:1 customers on the day. Asked for scratches & chips to be dealt with to compensate for poor service, this has been refused.

Visited carshop Cardiff on 19/2/22 on a pre booked visit to buy a car and part exchange my car. When i was shown the car the salesman could not open the car, he replaced the key battery but then said that the headlights had been left on and the battery was flat. Started the car with a battery pack. The satnav, and information screen was now dead, requiring a activation code.. I was told that the code would be entered before i left, it was not. No service record with the car as advertised, no driver handbook. I was promised that all this would be sorted before i left. Once i paid nothing was done.I was at the store for over three hours. Torture.When i eventually left with the new car i ran out of fuel half a mile from the garage, car was totally empty. I am now left to sort out the activation code and buy a manual. Once this place gets your money they are not interested in any complaint you may have. Do not go near this place.Should be closed down.

"Awful after sales service."

Don't buy from here! After sales service is some of the worst I've come across. Staff don't reply to emails and give any number of excuses as to why they haven't called you back. Extras were added to our bill and we are still trying to get the money refunded!

Went in last week to have a look and ended up buying a car. Greeted by and then we'll looked after by Sam Bennett, who didn't pressure me in any way at all, and was able to answer all my questions. Very helpful and has recently called me to make sure all is okay with the car. I have bought a few cars here and will again in the future

Diabolical selling technique, lies, deceit and hard selling. Avoid at all costs. A bunch of crooks!
