  • "We finally took the car in on the arranged date and left it. 3 days later we went to collect as they instructed. Still not fixed and no one seemed to know why."
  • "I then asked to speak to Dave the boss, Firstly I was told that Dave was just leaving, then I was told that he's already left earlier on, & then I was told he couldn't come to the phone because he was with a customer."
  • "I ask to look at the car and Dan very hesitantly agrees and walks me over. This is where the fun begins... the state of the car was absolutely ridiculous."

  • "Upon attempting to return the car ALL ELECTRICS FAILED. It BROKE DOWN & RECOVERY VEHICLE had to come and collect it off at car park."
  • "They said they had repaired the fault but again and again the engine light came back on, oil leaks have re-appeared from replacement parts."
  • "I have made 2 finance payments, I am having to rely on public transport, borrow work vehicles when they are available or walk! And I have an £8500 car sat on my drive that I can't use!"
