Don't be fooled by over friendly salesman
Don't be fooled by over friendly salesman!
On the face of it Hawthorns looked like a good reputable dealership, until I collected my car and things started going wrong.
Firstly, upon collection I was told by the salesman that the MOT certificate was 'not to hand' so he would grab it before I leave. (I had to remind him literally as I was leaving and he got it from someone, folded it and handed it to me as I got in the car)
Thought nothing of this at the time, until problems started occurring with the car ON THE JOURNEY HOME. The dealership was shut when I arrived home, so I then decided to go through all the paperwork. I found TO MY HORROR, that there were a long list of advisories on the MOT certificate he apparently just didn't 'have to hand', including tyre worn close to limit, several brake pipes corroding and chip in windscreen!
Not what I would have expected from a car that I had just paid them quite handsomely for!
After several calls and some persuasion from my part on the Monday morning
