"It's a pig in a poke"

A recent car sale has proved disastrous. Took the car to a friend as it didn't seem to be running right. The experienced mechanic said not only had the head gasket gone but the engine had been replaced and the head gasket had an attempted repair to it. We are now left with a heap and the salesman doesn't want to know. Even sending threatening texts. The next step is TS

Paul from Halfway House Car Sales in response to It's a pig in a poke

Hello You forgot to mention you collected the car in February 2022 8/9 months ago and have been driving it around and seen driving it around after you’ve been told the car has a blowing head gasket and your EXPERIENCED MECHANIC said just keep topping up the water !!! Great advice !! I’m sorry you’ve had an issue 8/9 months down the line but we can’t warrant our cars as the age and price your going to experience some sort of issue in the first 3 months we always sort any faults .. We welcome trading standards has you haven’t given a true account or your problem Regards Paul

BP in response to It's a pig in a poke

In response, I neglected to mention, the issue was brought to your attention over 3 months ago. With your response.. "we will give you a new engine" we agreed but then after some confusing correspondence we received some abusive texts. The bottom line is the car was sold failing all TS criteria. Not only that on the day we drove it off the forecourt the speedo didn't work. What is also concerning is the adjacent garage had given it an MOT cert.

Had to get Trading standards involved, sold a car with no end of problems (had a RAC inspection done as was told I knew nothing when I went back to the garage with issues). I asked Paul for my money back and was told he would take money off for usage (fair enough) He then told me he needed me to have the log book (after contacting DVLA he had not sent the log book to them so I wouldn't have it. I contacted him and told him there would be a wait on the log book, and I would be in contact when I had it. When I received it, he told me he would knock more money off the vehicle as I had had it another 2 months (stationary on my drive in the way). I had had it a while before the log book came, but he agreed on this when first contacted. Only after I asked him if he was part of the ADR scheme (he's not) did he agree to return the vehicle. I later learnt that he didn't need the log book to return the vehicle. I did eventually get the money but after a lot of headache.

I bought a Honda Civic from these guys about a year and a half ago. I waited this long so I could leave an informed review. The car is a dream, super reliable only had one small issue when I first got the car, just a small one, fairly cheap to fix and actually didn’t need doing in order for the car to be functional. The gentleman (you’ll have to excuse me, I forgot his name) delivered the car to me (at an extra cost of course) I believe he drove over 200 miles each way which I could not have been more grateful for. The only bugbear I have and the reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 would be that a few scratches were covered up so when I first saw the car it was not visible but when it rained the scratches were revealed, it was also not made clear to me that there was a small gap between the bumper and the front right light which has now caused it to rust inside. I’d have been happy if they were 100% honest and pointed these out to me, I would have bought the car anyway so there was no need to pretend they weren’t there. Other than that I was and still am very happy with the car and the service. I would definitely use these guys again should I decide to (or need to) change cars.

Did a part exchange and got a car with no end of problems. Fixed them one by one but eventually took back and got old car back which he claimed to have repaired. Got 5 miles and it broke down and he would not sort. Avoid rogue dealer
