Dreadful and stressful experience.
How I wish I'd read these reviews before buying a car from here! Went to see a Mini Cooper S, car drove well on the test drive and looked in great condition. Was shown an immaculate service history and thought I had found myself a bargain.
Twenty minutes after pulling away from their office, the ABS came and and the brakes started grinding loudly and juddering. Following this, the exhaust started to blow (loudly!) and the puncture light came on.
I managed to pull into a garage who happily diagnosed the car as COMPLETELY UN-ROADWORTHY, stating that the tire pressure for each tire was 70PSI, completely unsafe and could have blown up at any point.
I took the car back and was argued and argued with, resulting in me losing £100 despite getting a 'refund'. I will be reporting them to trading standards and hope to get my £100 back, and the cost of both taxis and trains back to my home in Norwich.
The staff were rude, argumentative and unsympathetic. DO NOT BUY!
