I found the car I'd been looking for at ideal car center, and did my due diligence and read reviews from many sites, including this one. After speaking with the owner about the negative feedback, he knew about each one, and I have to say put my mind at rest. Sometimes I think that people forget that when you buy a used car, that the car has actually been used, and that issues are likely to come up! They offer an extended warranty at a very good price and to me that's a no-brainer and would cover any issues beyond wear and tear. I'm extremely happy with my new (used) Audi A5 3.0 TDI S Quattro, and with the service I received from the company.
I recently Traded my car here for a NEW AUDI.Really happy with my new car and also the price i got on my old car.They were really easy to deal with and very honest too.I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM! A+++++++++
I found the whole experience first class - my partner pointed out what needed doing on the car I was looking to buy and everything was put right before I purchased the vehicle. On collection of the vehicle this was straight forward and (a special thank you to Shaun) for the full what the car can do experience). They have some nice prestige motors and give a 3 month warranty on all vehicles so don't let the negatives below put you off - if anything happens after sale you are covered for parts and labour. Thanks Guys
Was contacted today by after sales and asked to leave a review of how I found the service..... Ideal were great, when they mentioned they had a few bad reviews and we're contacting all their customers I was shocked. They were true gents and I am over the moon with my car. It was the cheapest around and in lovely condition. Cannot fault the car or the service!
Really pleased with our 3 series, would highly recommend Ideal Car Centre to anyone.
I have just bought from ideal centre and I thought they were great. The young lad I dealt with was really friendly and helpful. On the 2 occasions we were there they were overwhelmed with customers but still managed to demonstrate good customer service. It's early days yet as far as the cars health is concerned but we had a lovely drive home to Wales and would reccomend them to anyone.
I went to view and test drive. I knew mot and service was due in September 2016. Not a great part exchange price either so I said so. He said well you can walk away. So I put £100.00 deposit down and said see if you can better my finance deals. Then I read these posts and rang up to cancel. He said I couldn't get my deposit back as he had to pay for it. Glad I walked away after reading these reviews. Told and wrote to trading standards too. Hope this helps anyone.

Do not trust this website!!! They are complicit in allowing people who have never purchased cars to post fake negative reviews, and making no effort to remove or edit incorrect and defamatory reviews despite proof they are fake or incorrect.
CAR DEALER REVIEWS in response to spud
***RESPONSE BY CAR DEALER REVIEWS*** We would like to clarify that where you see a verified review this means we have seen clear proof that the customer made a genuine purchase or experience at this dealership. We also allow anyone to leave a review regardless of whether they complete a purchase and in this case we have also seen proof that this customer made a visit to this dealership. We always take care to ensure all reviews left on our website as accurate as possible, however as with any review website there is no possible way to verify every comment written in every review as often what is written is based on feelings towards the service that a car buyer has received. We have offered Ideal Car Centre the opportunity to respond to each and every review to share what they believe the facts are to which they have declined. We have also not been provided with any details that can prove the reviews are either fake or incorrect.
Avoid !!!!! Stupidly bought a car from them and within the same day the car started leaking oil onto the exhaust, advised not to drive as a potential fire hazard. Oil dripping onto exhaust. Brakes were condemned after a local garage inspected it. And quite a few more serious issues. Contacted the dealer and was given the run around for weeks. Finally decided to fix all the issues to the grand sum of £800 argued the point with the dealer and provided receipts also, but no joy. Basically fed lies and out of pocket to the sum of £800. Have passed all correspondents on to a friends Mum who is a lawyer and is building a case to sue them for all expenses. The only good news is she will do this for me gratis:)... Have since reported to trading standards and watchdog. What goes around comes around. Shocking! I feel like they sold me a dangerous car.

I bought a car from this dealer,and would never buy another car from them again. Stay well away from Ideal Car Centre. The after sales was very bad, after they took my money they did not want to know. This company should have the Trading Standards look into how they can sell cars to the public.
Ashley Richardson in response to Mark Turton
I am having same issue. Within a week of owning the car the gear box went. The manager denies any responsibility under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 so I am now needing to refer this matter to the Trading Standards. They took my money and ran. Arrogant unhelpful after sales attitude. Stay clear.

Iam am sorry to hear that you have had the same after sales reaction from IDEAL CAR CENTRE. They should be reported to Rouge Traders or Watch Dog.i had to take my vehicle to my own garage,were I had to put my car right.Which cost my over £700.00 to put right.
Absolutely shocking service! Engine went after a few weeks. The garage have taken no steps to rectify the problem and class it as wear and tear. These people treated me in a disgusting manner and I feel they are getting away with selling cars that won't last two minutes, just like mine. Avoid Ideal Car Centre and buy from another dealer.
