Never Again!

I had a mixed experience buying my car from Benedicts of Bristol. I called ahead of viewing the car (which was a 340 mile round trip) which the dealer had increase the price by £300. To secure the car and honour the original price and hold the car he wanted me to pay a non refundable deposit of £250, even though I hadn't seen it. I declined to be held to ransom.

I viewed the car and the dealer only reduced the price by £170 as I refused to risk my money in a vehicle that I had not seen. In my view totally unreasonable. I only bought the car as it was the only 1 to my specification I could find after mine was written off in an accident.

On the plus side Karl, the salesman was fantastic, helpful and a pleasure to do business with.

Would I recommend Benedicts of Bristol Absolutely not! The Business owner has no sense of customer service and negotiation, indeed he just hid in his office.

I would have walked away if I knew I could get the car elsewhere. Fortunately for Benedicts, I could not.

Once they have your money they aren't interested!
we bought a Landrover Freelander2 from Benedicts. It wasn't cheap. Listed as £17,250 and we paid £16,300 so no small amount! Part of the agreement of sale was to mend a sizeable chip in the windscreen. This they said they had done but when we collected it the chip was even bigger! We were told we would 'hardly see it at all'. We were promised that this would be dealt with but regardless of nume
