Where do I even begin…

Selling my car to this company turned into a bizarre and uncomfortable experience. The driver Abs was careless, and things only went downhill from there. We had issues with the V5 logbook, partly because it wasn’t collected from the post office after a missed delivery, something that should have been handled professionally but clearly wasn’t.

The most shocking part? Instead of resolving anything properly, Abs decided it was appropriate to take my phone and attempt to leave himself a 5 star review. Yes, really. This was followed by a lengthy and very personal “sob story” about his life and how he would lose his job if I didn’t comply.

I understand everyone has their struggles, but this felt manipulative, unprofessional, and completely inappropriate. Customers should not be put in a position where they feel pressured or obligated to give positive reviews, especially not on the spot and definitely not by someone holding their phone.

Overall, the experience was uncomfortable and poorly handled. I would strongly suggest the company reviews its staff conduct and customer interaction standards.

Would not recommend.

Wayne & Ian were fantastic

Wayne & Ian were fantastic, they were let down by a driver in the morning but managed to reorganise so they kept to the original time schedule & were mindful I had a meeting to go to. Very friendly but also professional, I would use them again & would also have no hesitation buying a car from them based on the checks they did on mine before buying from me.

High Recommend this Service

Dealt with Conor who was a lovely guy. Came and was very clear and knowledgeable about the car. At no point did I feel pressured and lured into a decision. At the end a fair offer for the car was made, proof of PCP paid and all documents completed before driving off with the vehicle. Would highly recommend the service.
