"Keep away. Cheaters. False advertisement"

I was dealing with a guy called Jack (the owner). He advertised a Transit (YP59 OZO) on ebay. We agreed on the price, then travelled 100miles to his garage to view to the van. Cutting the long story short, ...... he told me he could not find the log book hence return tomorrow. The next day I called him before setting off and was not picking or returning my calls. Finally got him after using a different number and he was so rude. Not a business minded at all. Abusive language to say the least. Very, very, very unprofessional. These type of people needs to be striked off from dealing with the public. He wasted my time with false promises. The v5C doc was just a hiding reason for something that he didn't want me to find out on the van. His answers were not straight from the beginning. In short KEEP AWAY. Something odd with them. I couldn't find the Pitstop Trade Centre website either yet they claim to sell high value vehicles. THINK, THINK!

Bought a van from The Pitstop Trade Centre a year ago and was told there was a split in the water pipe, which is an easy fix. After a 3hrs drive home, came to realise that it actually had a failed head gasket, smashed radiator fan, seized injectors and starter motor was on its last legs. After avoiding numerous calls, messages, emails and letters from me and robbing me off, the owner (Jack) eventually offered me the option of a partial refund, or court proceedings. Even after a year he has still not sent the log book off to the DVLA and I have been stuck paying tax on the vehicle and storage fees, costing me thousands. Since my issues with them, gave came across a few horror stories from other people, one of which a van bursting into flames as a father was taking his kids to football, days after purchase. DO NOT HAND YOUR MONEY TO THESE, unless you really know your stuff with vehicles!!!

I bought a car from the Pitstop Trade Centre a few years ago. They do not bother to present like a showroom. They sell them as they buy them. They do not spend money on them but pass that saving onto the customer. If you want to be sweat talked and fussed over for a gleaming car in showroom condition, they may not be for you. If you want a good vehicle with the usual marks and wear they pick up in normal use, and you want it at a bargain price then this could be just the right place for you. Do not expect them to run after you or fuss over you though. It is a take it or leave type business because they know if you do not want it, plenty of others will.

The Pitstop Trade Centre is not a RAC dealers, not even registered on any sites. I would defo avoid this place as you WILL be wasting your money. Even the address for the place is wrong. When the simple things are being hidden that must tell you a lot. AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID

Have you ever bought from them? I have. Best car I have ever bought and best price too. The were friendly, helpful and professional and have the biggest TV I have ever seen. I still have the car and use it daily. I would buy from them again.

I tried for weeks to contact The Pitstop Trade Centre after constantly being hanged up on for no apparent reason. The day i finally got through to Jack, i was greeted by someone that sounded as if they had no interest whatsoever. I kindly asked for some information in regards to a van i was interested in, but the only reply i had from Jack was, ''I have no idea as the van isn't with me at the moment''. I asked if i could call back in a few hours to have the information(service history, previous owners and current m.o.t etc). I called back but was hanged up on 4x and so i decided to leave it. Fast forward one month, i called Jack again only to be hanged up on, what a surprise! He doesnt seem to like it when people are actually interested in the vans he has for sale it seems. I called a separate number and got through to his employee which then handed the phone over to jack for me. I explained id like to come and view the van a.s.a.p, to which he responded was fine to do so, I arrived and took the van for a test drive and asked the ''employee'' to speak to Jack in regards to the log book and agreeing on a deal for the van. The employee told me i would have to travel down the rd to a shop where Jack was located. This is because he was on his computers too busy to come down and show any interest in a paying customer. The employee stated that Jack wont come to us(we were located at the van yard with all of the vehicles) as he has another business down the road and he is busy! The condition of the vans at this premises deserve in a scrap yard and should not be sold or even looked at by the general public. Suspension, steering and braking issues were found once the van was taken by a test drive. If you want to buy a tatty looking van that will probably cost you hundreds in repairs after you've bought it, go ahead and buy from this place :) They are not RAC approved and they do NOT offer warranty!

Bought a car from The Pitstop Trade Centre back in May as I needed a more economical car. They were willing to take my old car in part ex despite very low amounts of money changing hands. Very pleasant to deal with. I can't comment about their vans which seem to be their main source of business but if you need a cheap run about, this is the place to go. Don't expect the usual dealer experience

The Pitstop Trade Centre claim on their website that they are RAC approved. This is not the case I have called the RAC and they have nothing to do with them. Beware !!!!
