I’m amazed to see Cleckheaton Motors rated as 2 star. I’ve used them for my last two cars and have highly recommended to friends and family. They’re my No1 choice for 2nd hand motors, always found great quality for my money and great service from their staff. I suspect some bad reviews may come from local competitors?

Bought a car from these guys in April and I’ve had nothing but issues since. Problems with the engine, the fuelling system, the exhaust, the battery, the clutch! You name it there’s been an issue with it. Took it for a test drive and it was fine; shortly after leaving the forecourt with it it broke down. Tried to get hold of the garage for DAYS to absolutely no avail. Left countless messages and heard nothing back. Wasn’t until I made the trip back over from Leeds and turned up back at the garage that they agreed to get it into a partner garage to get it sorted and even then it took the absolute mickey. Purchased an 18m warranty through the garage that has turned out to be as useful as a chocolate fire guard, and a quick look on a search engine describes it as “a dodgy warranty company for dodgy garages” Kicking myself for not doing more research before purchase but have bought many cars in the past and trusted the sellers too much as I fell in love with the vehicle, It’s places like this that give car dealerships a bad name. Dodgy as. Save your time and money and look elsewhere! My “affordable” car has turned out to be anything but.
Purchased a car with a brand new 12 months MOT so thought should be OK ... wrong. The day after I Purchased it had it booked into garage as CV joint was clicking on full lock, this was known about at purchase and £95 knocked off price off the car fair enough. The reputable garage then preceeded to find 4 major faults with the car that would have never passed an MOT, they were shocked at what they found, rear shocks completely blown and had been for a long time, front suspension top mounts completely disintegrated, front breaks both in a dangerous condition. This was 3 days after an MOT pass and the car only doing 40 miles I smell a dodgy MOT. Cost me £1000 to rectify all the faults and make the car roadworthy for my child I didn't want the seller to do the work as they are dodgy as F##K and wouldn't have trusted them, The warranty states engine and gearbox only. When I contacted them to see if they'd be willing to help with the costs of repair all I got was we'll give you a refund for the car lol, sure you will and receive a car back that's roadworthy with all new suspension and breaks and probably sell for more. Since the repairs also had a gearbox issue but was cheaper to repair it than the recovery costs to get it back to them and again wouldn't trust them as don't believe they have a qualified mechanic on the books bodge it and scarper. Lessons learnt bought cars for years but always used proper reputable dealers never had any issues with them that's what I'll stick to in future.

Had a good look around the 'showroom' warehouse, which is littered with used rattle spraycans. Every single car in there is a pile of cheap auction bought rusty and damage repaired rubbish. Everything had poorly resprayed panels, was rusted to hell underneath or had bodged accident damage repairs. Someone who didnt know what they were looking at or doesnt know anything about cars would see shiny and presentable cars. DO NOT BE FOOLED! Everything I saw was an absolute shined up turd.
COMPLETE LIARS - Bought a car from them without reading reviews and utterly regret it, they assure you everything is okay with it and a couple of weeks after purchasing loads of issues start to arise that are not covered by their warranty (they won’t tell you that), do not buy a car from these, would not recommend.

THEY SCAMMED ME - I bought a car from them that had a broken part, they said they’ll order it to my house, it’s been 3 weeks and still hasn’t arrived, after thousands of calls to them it turned out they haven’t even ordered it. Then they stop answering my calls on purpose and when i rang off a different number he pretended to not hear me. Would not recommend

Living about 1.5 hours away from Cleckheaton myself and my wife decided to go and visit Cleckheaton Motors, having looked around so many sites and garages could not believe the standard of cars nor the variety at such competative rates, so what was it like when arriving, first impressions couldnt believe the amount of cars on offer. The experience was very laid back and definitely unrushed, we found the car we liked a 2011 Vauxhall Meriva at (Advertised at 60K but nearer 63K) But this did not put us off but was something I think would be better being totally honest about. The Staff did not bother us, we were in out, bonnet up, in out, looking at other cars, back to the Meriva, minds made up we approached one of the team who arranged test drive, great car knew it was right straight away, came back from drive, reported 2 minor faults, oil low, and passenger electric window not operating from passenger side, we reported these, said they would be sorted by time of collection, deposit made drive home. I would advise do your own checks piece of mind, I paid for full history check looked at all mots, checked with garage that provided bulk of service history , which was well worth the trouble as the car had been given a full cam belt timing kit change only 4000 miles earlier in 2022, so this was an amazing bonus as I was prepared to find that cost myself being such a stunning car, went back 6 days later, car ready, paid balance checked car, jobs done, drove home. No pressure, jobs sorted, and can say the car is absolutely superb, So do your homework approach team and see what you could end up owning. Best advice do your own homework then ask the questions, if you dont and you just buy, you may be a disgruntled customer instead of a extremely happy one like us, hope this helps you make your decision.
Bought a car we liked the look of. Told we'd get 3 months warranty to which was a lie! Had to send the car back to fix problems straight away. Fixed 1 and botched the other problem. After only 2 months we phoned to try get the car looked at it because it sounded bad. To be told our warranty of 3 months was a lie they only gave 1 month. Shock horror the car breaks an cost us over £1000 to fix. They knew the car they sold us would of had serious problems in the near future. Absolute cowboys stay away from this garage!!
Don’t bother, doesn’t even deserve the one star! Purchased a car from this company to be faced with problems and incurred nearly £200 expense to get it back to them, which they are refusing to reimburse. They have re-advertised the returned car with 2000 less mileage on it than when I returned it! I have written twice and received no response I now face the small claims court to get my expenses back, very inconvenient!!
