The MGB I purchased looked great, had no faults I was assured. Broke down within 10 miles no response from mobile so called RAC. Taken back two my garage. Found wiring all a mess, brakes needed a complete overhaul rears ceased, inlet manifold sucking air. Some good bits had been put on car but by someone who hadn’t a clue. My advice keep well clear of James and Croydon classics. A very dodgy dealer.

I am a classic car enthusiast and have just purchased two lovely cars from Croydon Classics - a totally restored and rust free MGB GT, and a classic Mini Cooper. Both prepared to a high standard and I could not be happier.

I purchased an MGB from Croydon Classics just before the lockdown. James at Croydon Classics guided me through every stage of choosing the right MGB for me, and could not have been any more helpfull. Highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase an MGB.

Bought a car from Croydon Classics for my husband's Christmas/birthday present, from photos and telephone conversations. The car was delivered on a transporter and is totally as described. My husband is over the moon with it. I highly recommend them for service and honesty.

Same story for me as others who have posted here. Bought an MGB from James Barton which turned out to be dangerous, despite being sold with a 'valid' MOT. Independent MOT failed on multiple grounds, Barton refused to accept responsibility and ultimately offered to buy back the car for 50% of the sale value. Wish I'd seen these postings before I bought from Croydon Classics.
