We purchased a first car for our son. The service was brilliant, very friendly approachable and knowledgeable staff. We are over the moon with the car and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to buy.

We had read a few mixed reviews of Catalina cars but we really liked a car and Michael made us feel confident in buying it . He went over and above explaining about the different models etc . He had everything ready for the car pick up and made it all so simple for us . Thanks again Michael .

I would be incredibly careful buying a car from this garage. I bought a 2014 mini with low mileage and a 12 month mot with no advisories. Sounds great! It wasn’t. We collected the car after 3 days (they wanted to clean it and check it over) and it was filthy, it smelt musty and dirty. The car had a broken wing mirror and a few scratches that hadn’t been advertised, I can live with that, easily sorted, it’s an older car. Within a day the engine light had come on and the tyre pressure light. They were great, take it to your nearest garage and we’ll get it sorted for you. I did that, the car needed to go back to mini for the issue. 3 months later, they’ve dropped off the face of the Earth. I would call and txt daily to hear them in the background saying “oh tell I’ll call her back later”. Unsurprisingly, no call. We end up threatening legal action and all of a sudden, they’re ready to help. The car goes to bmw and they complete a health check. It needed £900 worth of engine work including a new turbo pipe, it had a punctured tyre, one close to the legal limit, a broken seatbelt and corroded breaks. They only agreed to fix the seatbelt and engine. 3 weeks later they’re still not paying for it. I’m now without a car for 4 months. Eventually it gets paid and I get my car. I still had to pay for new tyres, new breaks, new wing mirror. You tell me how that passed the in house MOT…. I’m absolutely appalled that someone would sell such an unsafe and battered car.

"Mia-sold warranty "

Resolving issues

I purchased a vehicle in August 2021 (2017 reg), and already both of the coil springs have broken. This has cost me in excess of £800. I was sold Warranties2000 Gold Plus cover, which was added to my purchase cost without my consent, which turns out that the coil springs are not covered. Nothing about the cover was explained to me and even the fact that it’s only valid if the vehicle is serviced every 6 months. I’m absolutely shocked and appalled that firstly I’m having these issues just over a year after purchasing the vehicle, and secondly that I was miss-sold warranty which is not valid for the parts that are damaged. I can’t imagine how many others have been tricked into this without knowledge, and are now left frustrated and out of pocket like myself. Absolutely disgraceful.

"Sold an undeclared write off "

This company will happily take your money, happy to sell a written off car unfit for the road. They will deny this, they will also say that monies paid is irrelevant, they will then take months to return your money. In the meantime you will be confronted by rude management, you will be called a liar, they will turn off all reviews so you can’t tell the truth. This is a company to avoid at all cost, especially if you want your family in a car that is road worthy and safe.

Ryan in response to Sold an undeclared write off

Hi Sophie I have also been sold a written off car by catalina and told its never happened before and they didn't know it was one. How long did it take for you to get you're money back? I have been waiting 3 months so far and they haven't offered any updates.
