In my opinion this company are an absolute bunch of thieves! Sold me a car, all 4 brakes and disc’s needed replacing! They did the front ls but ignored the back. Logbook not sent away so I’ve never received it. Cars gonna cost me another few thousand to fix. Stay away from these thieves.

Shaun from Save On Used Cars in response to Shower of Sh*t

Dear Karl, the Jaguar was sold with an MOT exceeding 6mths (8mths left) as per AA and RAC standards, it also had a minor service on 1st December 2023. We had you back in for brake judder, which was present but minor, and applied the replacement of required disc/pads as advised. I am sorry that not all elements were replaced, however we resolved that which was complained about and that which we were informed was causing the issue. Wishing you well for the future. Regards, Shaun

We brought a 13year old Peugeot from this dealership, we dealt with Wilma she was lovely she allowed us to look at the car completely on our own no pressure we test-drove the vehicle. We did tell her that the car came up with a notification about tyre pressure but to be honest, we all thought it was where the car had been sat for a little while. After buying the car we drove it home to Lincoln no issues, one day later the same notification came up but one phone call to the guy called Shaun who instructed me to go to my local tyre company, they informed me that I needed two new tyre's Shaun instructed them to complete the works and paid for it no hassle absolutely brilliant service. Would recommend this company.

Before buying my new car I emailed a lot of garages & this garage was the only one to reply, so I thought we're off to a good start. Having to work away I wasn't able to collect it straight away, but they had taken care of everything & had answered all my questions. The day it came to collect the car it was the easiest process, the guy who went through the paper work with me was on top form and such a quick process. The car was in perfect condition and away she came home with me. A few weeks in I noticed a lack of power at times & then the EMU came on, I hooked up a code reader and sent a message (as it was late) over to the garage with the code & what the issue was, I then followed up during working hours with a call, Shaun was already on top of it, the guy on the phone & Shaun were really friendly, helpful & put me at ease, it's not a great thing to deal with, but cars are a bunch of moving parts, things happen. Turned out the previous owner had done short trips, where the car doesn't have a problem, but when you ask it to drive long distance at speed it was having issues, something nobody would have noticed unless you do the work commute I do, so certainly not the garages fault, just one of those things, the garage and specifically that of Shaun were just amazing at arranging everything and took care of everything. I took the car to the garage they had booked it with, after two hours I planned to go back to be met with doomsday, it was all sorted, not just a credit to that garage, but also this dealership and Shaun who picked them. Things do go wrong and the mark of a good dealership is how they approach it & they have been exceptional. I will always get my cars from here, I will push friends and family to and I would strongly urge you to. Thank you for such exceptional customer service and a wonderful car, you've been rock stars !

I've been looking for a second hand car, I bought my last one and am thinking of asking Save On Used Cars to source me the next one. Half of the stress in buying a used car is finding one nearby from a dealer you can trust, These guys were faultless. No, they were not open to haggling but it was clear if I didn't buy the car then someone else would. Wish more dealers were like them. They sorted out everything when something went wrong under warranty (the car was ten years old, so it happens)- doing all the paper work for me.

I purchased my Black Mondeo from saveonusedcars on 20th October 2021, it is in superb condition, drives very well,very reliable, John even let me drive car from Scunthorpe to my home in Grimsby so my wife could look at it, she loves it and says it looks like a big black limousine,it’s beautiful, I will not hesitate to go back to saveonusedcars whenever I look to change vehicle in the future, it only had one owner from new and had been well looked after,I traced the previous owner who assured me they purchased the car brand new back in October 2015. Well satisfied

"Strange pre sales pitch"

Called today to talk about an S4 Avant. Initially it was a really purposeful conversation. However when I mentioned a budge on price... the salesman, who loved to tell me that it was his ex car he was selling, sounded like I’d insulted him. What a weird experience. A bit of negotiation works, but an arrogance, due to an over priced car doesn’t.

we bought a Peugeot for the asking price, two weeks later my wife had to replace a tire due to a puncture. at the tire dealer he noticed that the tracking was way out and the inner edge of the tire was illegal. the car had just been MOT'd prior to us taking it. We spoke with John the 'salesman' who told us the car was fine when it left the showroom and that there was nothing they could do. So there you have it the car 'got sick after they sold it , no apology or offer to correct what was clearly a pre existing fault on the car, and i would question the MOT centre where it was tested because they surely would have seen this? I would advise anyone NOT to buy a car from these dealers, as soon as the car is out of the door and they have your cash they dont want to know.

I purchased a Vauxhall VX220 from the Save On Used Cars team in June 2020, at distance due to the COVID-19 crisis. Phil is clearly an enthusiast and was very knowledgeable without the pressure tactics. Unfortunately on day two of my ownership, a fault with the gearshift became apparent. Shaun and Phil worked with me to successfully provide compensation and have the car repaired at a garage local to myself (over 400 miles away from their dealership). Great service, communication and after-sales support from the team.

"DO NOT TRUST THESE LIARS!"

They told me on the phone the car was in perfect condition inside and out when I asked about dents etc, I travelled 250 miles to collect the car. When I arrived, the car was dirty and they could not be bothered to clean it for my arrival... (for a reason)! I soon realised the car had done many more miles than advertised, and was then told that the salesman had been driving it, but I let it go. I paid the original advertised price for the car as they were not prepared to move on the price so asked for, and expected at least a tank of fuel... nope, I had to put a full tank in myself 2 miles down the road. When I got home and cleaned it, I then saw that the front bumper was quite scuffed right where some dirt was conveniently (placed?), and the rear bumper also had a dent in. I understand that a 3 year old car may have a few bits, but to blatantly lie to me is disgusting and not good business practice. Also beware, they only give you a 30 day warranty which is laughable and not worth the paper it is written on. I would not trust these people, so buyers beware! I do not want others to experience this stereotypical used car sales company and their company name saveonusedcars.co.uk speaks for itself. So save yourself the agro and save-on-used-cars elsewhere!
