Please avoid this company if you want to save your self stress, hassle and possibly your life. Also they will not refund you when problems arise under the consumer trade act 2015 which by law they have to. But you can only make them if you have the time and money to take them to court. Which is why I think they repeatedly get away with it after reading reviews. I brought my car within a week the brakes were grinding on the back rear passenger side. Had to wait a week to take it for repairs and drive it myself with worn out brakes. On the way they failed completely. Nearly crashing in to a lorry and brake fluid lost all over the road, it had to be recovered. Bearing in mind it had been mot'd by Faraday Mill not centre just before purchase. The brake shoe he completely snapped off! When I got the car back I drove to my parents and the wheel was smoking when I got there. My dad had a look and said the bearing was going. So back it went by recovery again I told them what was wrong. I got a call to say my car was fine nothing wrong with it and criticised for having it recovered to them. So my dad phoned them to tell them again about the bearing. They re checked it and guess what the bearing was gone. But they We're happy to let me have it back and put my baby in it. The day I was collecting it they said it would be later cos the window had fell out! The regulator had gone. So went to the car centre to ask for my money back under the consumer trade act 2015 as I had given them a chance to fix it and you don't have to except a second repair. They refused. Got it back drove to my parents again the brakes were squeaking my dad checked again it was leaking brake fluid. Making it to dangerous to drive. Finally spoke to the manager Stewart. The rudest, nastiest sounding, uncaring man I've ever spoke to. Refused my refund again. Had it recovered. I contacted trading standards and citizens advice who said I was in the right and entitled by law to get my money back I put It in writing to him and he still refused. Got a letter back to say he won't refund cos my dad took the wheel of to find the fault. He should be thanking my father if he hadn't the brakes would of failed again when enough brake fluid had been lost resulting in a possible fatal accident. He doesn't care at all about his customers once he's got your money. I collected the car and guess what they had found another fault and replaced the suspension brushes and re mot'd it. That day took it straight to a reputable dealer and part exchanged it for a lovely car with no problems. The whole process was different. Was sat in an office doing the deal. Not in the car yard with the sales person running back and forth to his manager about every negotiation. He may think he's won but trading standards are investigating him. So please if you've had problems please report to trading standards the more complaints the more likely something will be done about this business. Pleas don't risk buying a car form them.

I brought a mini one 2007 8 weeks ago. 5 days after I had it home, the power steering went. When I rang up their attitude was shocking, not helpful in the slightest. We asked to have a refund, or exchange. Not only were we told no, but they had the ordatsity to say it aggressively. We were denied a courtesy car while the repairs went on the car (which was not easy to get). Recently the sunroof became faulty and wouldn't close. Again should be under the warranty, but the same questions were asked and again disrespectivley told no to everything and now I am stuck to pay an estimated bill of £1000. I would not only never use this garage again but advise other people avoid it too.

Absolutely brilliant, no issues at all with this dealership! They have been so helpful and the car is smashing! I bought a Nissan Qashqai in June. Excellent price and in amazing condition. Fully recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a quality used car.

Plympton Car Centre were shocking. They had the car 5 weeks with a clean mot and recent service, been in the garage a week and half of that time. £82 for a new battery abs sensor and ring, replaced under warranty and now £92 for a wheel barring that apparently. I just went stranded in France had to be towed back asked before all this happened to change car are as so much has gone wrong and the attitude was I sell 100 cars a month never have trouble almost calling me a liar shocking obviously not checked over or tested!

Purchased a Renault from Plympton Car Centre in September, unfortunately a fault cropped up about a week in but Stuart rectified it for me and gave me a courtesy car whilst it was in the garage. I have no reason not to recommend them the service was very good.

Shocking customer service, I couldn't test drive the car despite having called in advance and driven with my twin babies and two year old for an hour all the way from St Austell, as they had "run out of diesel". I thought Plympton Car Centre were lazy, unapologetic and rude.
