They don't have a correct vat number on there sales forms the company says its been trading years but have only just gone onto company house. Hiding something. Keep away buy a car from any where else but here. Forton Motors lie to your face.

Staff from Forton Motors in response to Poor cars

With response to your review Dazza I would like to again inform that Forton Motors are a well established business having been trading here since 2003 up to date and our previous premises since 1986 and definitely have nothing to hide, as we are a very successful business. All our team here at Forton Motors have always been credited for their fantastic customer service and complete honesty. We think this review from yourself is down to a slight noise on the vehicle, which we both spoke about at point of sale, however sometime later you say we didn't mention this noise at point of sale, so as a good will gesture from ourselves, we agreed to have a look at your car. Instead you have taken your vehicle to a neighboring garage for them to have a look at, as you told us that you didn't want us to diagnose the slight noise for you. Then I believe you collected your car then drove away without paying them! We can't understand this review as you being a customer, you came in to Forton Motors after you placed your review on our website. Then approximately a week later you called in to Forton Motors on the (19th December) not mentioning anything to do with the noise and in polite conversation you wished us a Happy Christmas and all the best for the New Year!!

Dazza in response to Poor cars

After taking the vehicle to a local garage that you told me to I did you didn't pay the bill as it was your bill to pay Stuart told me to take it to this local garage on your say so. You tried to get out of paying our finance off until we brought the letter in. Steve you lie to your customers faces then lie lie lie You don't do the right thing for the customer and your Vat recipient are wrong my solicitor has told me this But you know this already.

I have bought my very first car from Forton motors it’s a silver polo and I absolutely love it . The staff were all great (especially Steve) and helped me find a car that wouldn’t be too expensive to insure with being a new driver . I have had the car since May 2017 and all is still running smoothly . I definitely would recommend Forton motors .
