hi anyone bought a car from the car shop. what is your thoughts on how you were treated and what was the cars would you recommend them. and were the cars up to the standard they say they are. safety checked and warranted. etc

Hi, from what I understand about these places, whats on the windscreen is what you pay, they have a 3 month warranty, they try & sell you a extended warranty that's not worth the paper it's written on ( It's a bonus for them for selling it) you cannot take the car out to test drive it, the cars are pooled from all parts of the UK, mainly ex reps cars, the service history on Reps cars are, as a rule right, myself I would prefer to bye from a dealer, but each one to their own.

Bluetoon, I answered a post to someone yesterday regards a 2nd hand purchase, if you have the cash, you can barter, check all the details before the purchase, make sure the seller has the V5 ( Log book) if not, walk away, do not bye in the rain! has the car history? when was the cam belt ( If fitted ) changed? how many owners, check mileage, does it go with the age of the car? do an on line check, there are many cars out there Blue, if you get pizzed about walk away & most important, if you are not well up on cars take someone that knows with you otherwise you may pay the price???
