Chesham Trade Centre is the worst van dealer ever. Dishonest and waste of time.

i called up Chesham Trade Centre about a van around 2pm, and was told it was still available. After an hour and a half train journey there, i was told it was sold "in the morning". Was pointed towards a like for like price and spec, and in honesty looked fine. advertised with service history. when i went to speak to the arrogant, boss... well that was just it, very arrogant and couldnt be bothered! said there was no service history and that Vans, which they had loads of, dont usually come with service history... SERIOUSLY!?!? So i checked up the MOT history on the van, and found 3 or 4 Under the Bonnet advisories, and future problems from the MOT 1 year prior. When i flagged them up with him, he was adamant that they had fixed those problems. When i asked him for the receipts and paperwork for those bits and ill accept those as service history, he said they don't do reciepts and whatever else. So when i said give me a guarantee with the vehicle he didn't want to do that either... I like to think i don't take long train journeys to car dealers on my day off just to waste time. But he sure wasted mine. Sounded dodgy as anything and couldn't be bothered. The Polish assistant was very friendly and helpful, but i'm afraid thats not good enough. I would avoid this company. Terrible. At least i kept my money!

Jordan in response to Terrible. I wouldnt.

Hi Fev, we have had a similar experience, would you be willing to share some information with me about what happened to you?

Gloria in response to Terrible. I wouldnt.

Lucky you. I wish i had kept mine. I am exploring taking them to court.

I was pleased with the service that I received at Chesham Trade Centre. Staff were polite and professional, and went out of their way to help me. They gave me a fair price for my part exchange and the car I was going to buy was waiting for me and all ready to go. I would recommend this dealership.

I wish I checked this site before I wasted my afternoon going to Chesham Trade Centre. I rang to see if a van advertised on eBay was still for sale. I was told yes it was and there were at least 4 others the same, there wasn't. On arrival I was ignored and told the sales chap was on a break. After 15 minutes I was treated to the boss. The van I came to see was gone and all the rest were very poor and in my opinion based on me looking at others, way over priced. The only nice guy there was a poor Eastern European chap that appeared to be the gofer and the only one helpful. I had cash in my pocket and I'm very glad it stayed there. AVOID.

I had exactly the same issue. Called up about a van around 2pm , was told it was still available. After an hour and a half train journey, was told it was sold "in the morning". However was pointed to a like model, and like spec, and i all honesty was in good condition (on the surface) and like priced. However when went in to speak to the boss about paperwork, "theres no service history!". "i was told there was". "No, vans dont usually come with service history" Straight away with that comment i didnt like the guy. Who says that kind of nonsense?!! After checking MOT history on the van, i learned there were some under the bonnet advisories, future problems. When i flagged them up with him, he said they fixed those. So i said "great! let me have the paper work for those then". "No we don't have those papers, but we done them" "Well how do i know that?" "well you can get it checked" "But i have to buy it first..." "well yeah obviously". "okay well give me a guarantee and ill take it" "no, we don't give guarantees" I walked out, money still in my pocket. the guy was terrible! but yeah the Polish guy was very helpful.

Great service and friendly staff, always went out of their way to help, even when very busy. Sales staff are not 'pushy' but allow you to try the van without driving it themselves. No pressure. I would buy a van from there again and would recommend Chesham Trade Centre to others.

Chesham Trade Centre were very helpful, honest and upfront with everything. The car was as advertised, we did the test drive and liked it. He pointed out a slight a problem with our Peugeot 206 car we have purchased, he said where I could get replacement parts, and where to get it from if I wanted to. Was purely internal cosmetics. I'm really happy he did point this out, builds trust and makes me very likely to recommend them and return myself. Overall great experience.

I do not have a bad word to say about Chesham Trade Centre. The service I received from them was good and the car is in good condition. I bought my Sprinter in January and I got the car for a really great price with good condition for this millage. The dealers were really helpful every step of the way. I would very highly recommend.

Polly in response to Good Service

Over all I think Chesham Trade Centre is a pretty good company to purchase cars & vans from. I think I’ll pay them a visit when I purchase my next van pretty soon.

AVOID BUYING FROM THIS DEALER The owner of Chesham Trade Centre also trading as karsltd.co.uk is a convicted fraudster: http://www.getbucks.co.uk/news/local-news/car-dealer-who-misdescribed-vehicles-5704268 He is an abusive, nasty, thoroughly indecent human being who should be ashamed of himself. He is the caricature of the salesman that you hoped you never meet. I've you are considering buying a vehicle from this place then take five minutes to look around the internet at how he's reviewed. Horrible, repugnant, fat, disgusting, rude and downright shoddy. If you are still crazy enough to think you know better, then do an HPI check on whatever car you are interested in. This guy sells lemons. Check the mileage he advertises versus the mileage on the car. Everything about his operation stinks.
