On the forecourt at 2695 but sold it to me for 2000, he must have seen me coming had it 8 weeks and needed new breaks and tyres which cost me 500 plus failed it's MOT which has cost me 1400, think the word cowboy springs to mind

Mr James Fotheringham in response to Don't go there

Hi, I am currently awaiting a court trial using small claims courts, which is taking place on 26th febuary 2025. I purchased a car and within 4 months the engine had a huge issue and the car stopped. Due to consumer rights within the first 6 months the company should offer repair, replacement or full refund. I went to the warranty company Warranty Assist who broke GDPR by speaking behind the scenes making deals with Absolute Motors Ltd trying to get my car back and fix yet the cost was over £10000. They since have acted terribly requesting court extensions twice, then mediation which they didnt attend, then once the court issued a proceeding they tried to dissolve their company. I went to companies house and had this blocked for 6 months and have just re applied with guarantee that it will be extended another 6 months to pass my court date. Absolute Motors have also stopped filing accounts with companies house. I advise you to look at speaking to someone as this seems to be a thing the company does and maybe as they are currently being held in court the fact your may or may not have been within the 6 months from purchase this could be something you could look into. Kind regards James Fotheringham

My son bought a car from them , not even 28 days later and needs over £1000 spending on it as has coolant leaks , brakes , glow plugs and other work . They ignore your calls and when you do get in contact say its not covered . Small claims court here we come

Chloe N in response to Absolute rip off company.

I have had a similar experience with this garage along with so many others. Would you be interested in raising a class action together alongside as many other individuals like us who have been ripped off. As there appears to be a history of fraudulent activity with these scammers.

Avoid Used Car Sales Peterborough at all costs, dodgy dealer ! Cars sold with fake mot, friends garage which is in close proximity passes the cars sold regardless of condition. Have reported this to trading standards and they stated that they are all already investigating this garage and its connections. Dont risk, avoid at all costs.

Do not buy a car from Used Car Sales Peterborough, the car I bought had so many problems on it amounting to a huge bill, they never reply to emails, I contacted the warrenty people directly and there was no warranty registered for the car. They state the cars are serviced before leaving them, they do nothing to the car apart from maybe cleaning, it came with a 12 month MOT, questionable how it was passed as it needs 3 new tyres after just 150 miles. Wish I had never visited them

AVOID USED CAR SALES PETERBOROUGH AT ALL COSTS. They are polite and helpful until your transaction is completed and then it is all downhill from there. They issued a six month warranty with Auto-Guard for peace of mind at the time of the sale. 12 days later the car broke down and needed a new gear selector. On reporting this to the dealer they assured me they would deal with the problem. Over a period of days they took no action and I had to supervise the repair expecting this to be covered by the warranty, however they had not even arranged the Auto-Guard warranty until after I reported the fault. Hence the warranty was null and void causing me to have to pay the cost of the repair. Because they defaulted on the warranty I claimed through the small claim court. They requested a mediation through the Court and failed to attend. After requesting a judgment hearing they also failed to attend this. The judgement was awarded to me but I am still awaiting compensation from this dealer. Because of the false statements at the time of sale, I am out of pocket to the total of £1687.89. So I say again, DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS DEALER!!!!

Car was MOTed but on taking to our local Garage there is no way it should have passed. We then took it back and ended up paying half to get it fixed. Warrantly never appeared andwe have spent more money on it over the year than the car is worth!

Bought a car from Used Car Sales Peterborough last November . Within a month the fuel system had to be replaced. The warranty did not cover this so the dealer tried to repair it through a back street garage . Now the car has a serious rattle and knocking noise coming from it . It was a waste of £2000 which the car cost me. Would stay well away from this dealer.
