Although they have now closed down I wanted to leave a review to vent some frustration.... being a single parent I wanted a reliable 2nd band car. Upon finding the vehicle I wanted, the deal was that if the timing belt was changed at the time, I would purchase. After agreeing to do this the sale went ahead. Now 2 years later and less than 10,000 miles done, the timing belt has gone and now I’m left with debt on a car that I can’t even use anymore!! Other alarming factors also came to light during the past few years like wheel nuts being snapped off inside the wheel and the head stuck on with putty to disguise it. Air con has never worked due to a broken condenser. Absolutely rubbish. If they were still open, I’d be there demanding a refund!

Cars had numerous problems since purchased it from Ellis Car Castleford.. one of with electric power steering pump one week after warranty.. didn't want the help .. the cost of that was '£390.

Recently purchased a Skoda Citigo for my mother in law from Ellis Cars in Castleford. Being that I live 320 miles from Ellis cars in Castleford viewing was rather a daunting prospect. However the photographs and conversations I had with them assured me it was the right car. There were no rear parking sensors fitted but this was no problems to them as they outsourced fitting, carried out a service and put a new MOT on car even though there was 7 months remaining on existing one. They agreed to delivery car to me 320 miles away for a very reasonable cost and true to their word it arrived a couple of days later and was every bit as good as described. I did not even have to pay for car until I had seen it and was happy which of course I was and paid for it over the phone. There was a 3 month in house warranty but due to distance I was told any problems and it could be sorted locally to me. No problems have arisen as yet and my Mother in law is delighted with her Citigo. So a big thank you Howard and staff at Ellis cars for an outstanding service and for Howard walking around car whilst on phone to me and giving in depth and honest opinion of condition and for all their help in a speedy and stress free deal.
