So i have been looking online for a car some time. There are a lot of garages all selling the same cars for pretty much the same price. So I went to each garage in my area and ultimately chose v12 as their car had the least amount of dings/scratches. I got lucky too as their pricing was a tiny bit less than everyone else's. The car was a Peugeot 308 and was in very good condition for its age. It is a dream to drive with its super soft suspension. Purchasing it was straight forward without any problems from my bank or with v12. Haven't had any hiccups with it so far and the breaks and tyres were new so cant see them being a problem any time soon.

I have been reading through a lot of these reviews and comparing them to my experience is like night and day. I'm not sure if I got really lucky but my experience was positive. I had a salesmen that didnt push for a sale, lie about any problems and didnt act agressive in any way. If anything, he just left me to it, answered my questions and thats pretty much it. I got test drive 2 different Fords (Fiesta and Focus) and due to having 5 doors, I actualy purchased the Focus over the Fiesta they had. No problems were found that they didnt already tell me about. A couple of wear and tear items were repaired under he AA warranty at my local garage and thats pretty much been my experience up until last week. This is from January when I purchased the car.

Came down last week to have a nosey at some cars they had. There were a few nice looking cars but upon coming back 2 days later, every car that I liked was gone which was a little disappointing. I didn't have the funds needed for those cars at that point but upon my 2nd visit I did having just been paid. I brought in my own car to see what I could part exchange it for and they offered a little less than I expected but was still within my expected range. Now that I had a price on my car I could see what cars I could buy. I had eyed up a Ford Mondeo when I came in initially but it was sold before I got a chance to look at it. Next I saw a Fiesta almost brand now only a couple of years old which looked great. I got to look inside and see that it was HPI clear. No need to MOT it for another year as it was a 2014 plate. I naturally assumed this would be sold too as it was my luck but it hadn't so I checked all the stuff I wrote about above and gave an offer £100 below what they were asking due to tyres not being brand new and they accepted and I got 6 months AA warranty too which is great. Overall my experience was great. It could have been better if I got the car I originally wanted but my Fiesta is still amazing for what it cost and looks very very nice. I didn't have to finance as I had the money already so was a pretty quick exchange and I was out.

First of all could I say how sorry I feel for all those people who have had such a terrible experience at the hands of V12 the reviews are quite sobering and shocking. Our story began on the Internet looking for a nice used car we noticed a car advertised by V12 and it looked immaculate, as we had looked at a few of this make of car already but its amazing how the camera really does lie. on talking to V12 via the Telephone we were given the Spiel on how they sell cars all day long and were not open to offers because they said "our cars are second to none" We were impressed at their claims and the car really did look that good going by the pictures but unfortunately on a arrival, we saw the car that we had put a deposit down on and we were very disappointed to say the least, the front bumper was damaged, they said it must of happened while on their premises and also pointed out that there must of been repairs to the bumper as I found masking tape on the bumper and as with most disgruntled customers my gut feeling kicked in in smelling a rat and that we counted ourselves fortunate that we followed our suspicions and walked away and with our money and deposit refunded. on returning back home we checked out the reviews on the V12 and are shocked at how many customers have been conned it just went on and on its very scary at how much money people have lost to this company let alone the upset. We consider ourselves very lucky not to have fallen to this company and from now will always check out a companies ratings and reviews before even going to look at a car let alone putting down a deposit or buying. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE as the majority of the reviewer's are warning you, on this company, V12. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY OR YOU WILL REPENT AT LEISURE, YOUVE BEEN WARNED.

Bought 62 plate Peugeot 308 which was im immaculate condition paint wise. There was a few problems engine wise but v12 sorted them out without any trouble. Since then I have got the full AA cover which I have used to sort out a knocking noise coming from my wheel. All problems fixed without hassle and at no extra cost to me to I give them 5 stars.

Bought a 2012 Focus last week, didn't have a spare tyre, there was no owners manual,3 of the hub caps were badly scratched and the parcel shelf was partially damaged. These are all cosmetic things and I have them sorted already, but the car is excellent value for money and overall I am very happy with the deal

I SHOULD NOT BUY A CAR!!! It was ok until I met the dealer when I picked the car up. They spoke very well by the phone but when I met them they were changed and their behavior was so bad!!! I bought a honda civic 12 registration about 21/09/2015 because they did a very well advertise as the car was in good condition ( I was thinking about no scratches, dents and chips, good tyres condition, good condition indide, engine and mechanical parts good condition) but when I met it Ive seen a big chip on the front bumper, paws folowed by scratches on the hood and roof and few rusted chips. The spare tyre was missing and the rear tyres was 2mm already being a diferent brand as the front tyres. Inside there was not mats and it was very dirty, full of dust, dirty on the floor and everywhere actually. So when I did notice about those problems the dealer told me: if You dont like then leave it here!! after I did paid as well. I couldnt leave the car cos It was already paid one week before to take. It took me a lot of time and money to clean and to fix few problems, as I bought new brand tyres, new brand mats, proper clean inside and outside, but the chips and scratches are still on. The car also was unwashed, very dirty and I think they tried to hide those peoblems. When I asked them why the car is not in good condition according by the advertise they told me that at that price I shouldnt expect to buy a car as a new brand showing me other cars with bad scratches than my car. After a month I had a problem as the multifunction indicator lamp became on, so I called AA waranty, they sent me to a service place and I paid for the inspection. So after few days the same indicator lamp became on again and I went stright to the HONDA DEALER who fixed my problem on my own money. So I think AA waranty is a fake being used by them as advertise. So I will never recommend this company to nobody...

My wife and I recently purchased a used car from V12. After emailing to an internet ad for the car, I was contacted by a v12 representative who provided me with all of the information I requested and invited my wife and I to test drive the car. When we arrived, we were welcomed like guests, the car was exactly as advertised and was ready for our inspection when we arrived. The negotiations were conducted and we got a good 10% off the total price due to it needing new brake pads.

Aye Right in response to Allan Foster

You got 10% off a car because it needed new brake pads...aye right!

Allan Foster in response to Allan Foster

I part exchanged my old car for it and paid £2000, new brakes + labour was £150 from main dealer so 7.5% off the difference price, not the whole car. I see why you thought I meant the whole car price.

Got my first car from here, nearly 6 weeks of constant driving so I can get better and haven't found any faults. I will be looking to v12 for when I get my next car, that's for sure. Thanks V12.
