AVOID - DANGEROUS/LIFE THREATENING

AVOID AVOID AVOID - DANGEROUS AND POTENTIALLY LIFE THREATENING!!! Selling non road worthy polished turds! If you wouldn't buy from a car auction, then please don't spend your hard earned cash here either. Someone at the branch new the car they had sold us had dangerous tyres - yet they had no conscious at all and allowed us to purchase the vehicle knowing we had a 5 hour drive back home with 2 young children in the back! After a fresh MOT and 'so called' RAC inspection, there is absolutely no way nobody had picked up on the fact x3 of the tyres were in need of replacement - Infact they were in immediate need of replacement due to multiple non suitable puncture repairs and gashes in the tyre walls (which to our horror we didn't see, unfortunately like many we just checked the tread) We were told the damages had severely reduced the integrity of the tyre, meaning without doubt we had risked our children's lives driving 5 hours home!!! Absolutely sickening and could have had devastating consequences when travelling at motorway speeds! I'm absolutely shocked to the core and never post negative reviews, but this needs highlighting to others looking to buy from Carbase. Issues were raised immediately once home and they have agreed to credit 2 of the 3 tyre replacements (even though Kwikfit tyres who are a reputable UK wide tyre specialist have confirmed and produced a report showing we needed 3 replacements) But this post is to raise awareness to anyone else like us looking to purchase on the belief Carbase is trustworthy - please avoid! The car we bought was dangerous, the experience so far horrifying, and without a doubt could have been life threatening for all my family and other road users!!
