VERY POOR

TERRIBLE - AVOID THIS DEALER. I phoned and made the point to the dealer that it would be a 4hr round trip of 170 miles to see this car and could i confirm the details on the advertisement. He phoned me back 10 mins later and said he had been outside and given it the once over inside and out. He told me the car exterior had a couple of tiny marks that would buff out when he did the valet. the inside had no rips or tears and was in excellent condition as described in the add, so were the tyres. We made the trip only to find out that the car had 4 dints in one the size of a fist next to the petrol cap. the two front tyres had barely any tred on and one had a split in the side wall about 3cm long. One of the back ones had a tennis ball size lump in the side wall. When we opened the boot there were approx 10 -15 rips all over the upholstery and roof lining and the whole of the boot lining had been heavily marked from continued loading and unloading..... The list goes on. Chris the manager told us it was as expected for its mileage ! a 2008 100K car - I dont think so. We were polite and after approx 5 mins we said we were going to leave it but thank you anyway. Chris response was to say "No Problem" and turned and walked away, no goodbye, no apology for deliberately mis advertising the condition of the car. If His business's ethics mirror any of his i would avoid this dealer - I can only imagine the type of after sales service you would receive. This is the first review i have ever written on the internet but i was that disgusted by this entire experience only for him not to even have the decency to say goodbye and wish us on our way. a disgustingly rude man and very poor company. If enough people read this and don't use him it may teach him that manners cost nothing and poor service and product could cost him a lot - after all that one 4.5k sale he didnt get. AVOID.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS
From start to finish the service offered was appauling - The vehicle purchased was ok however we were promised a full service history was included in the sale (hence the higher price) and turns out this did not even exist! We chased several times only to be met with the most rudest replies, in the end we gave up fighting. I am leaving this review to warn other customers to avoid buying a car from

Never ever buy from this company unless you are prepared to take
Please note they have several company names (Used Car Company Yorkshire, or formerly known as The Car Factory and registered as Proyash Ltd) I never write reviews but I am compelled to do it on this occasion. I bought a car from them earlier this year and it was most stressful transaction I ever had with any business. I will keep my review short for ease of reading but I would be glad to s

LOOK BEYOND THE SMILE - honesty and integrity questionable
I bought a car from these people and they came across as decent and friendly but it was not to last as problems getting hold of the service book for the car proved fruitless. First, I was assured that the service book was in their work shop but they could not find it. Then I was told it was with the warranty company. After a week I called them and they said it was still with the warranty c

GREAT SERVICE
Having recently purchased a vehicle from 'The Car Factory' I would just like to leave my experience on here for others to view. There was no pushiness from the guys and they were extremely helpful and offered me an excellent deal on my warranty. If looking for car give them a try first.

EXCELLENT SERVICE
I have recently purchaseda Renault Laguna from The Car Factory and the customer service was second to none, they helped me in every way possible to make sure I was purchasing the correct vehicle for my needs. One of the guys called "John", he was absolutely amazing, very friendly, not pushy like most Garage Sales people. I would recommend The Car Factory to anyone who is wishing to purchase a

Oh Dear! BEWARE
If you must buy a car here, please make sure anything agreed is in writing and that you have photographic evidence of completion before you collect (it might save you the 140 mile, 4 hour, wasted trip I had!). Do not trust these people at their word at all. Any attempts to communicate via email will most likely be ignored. If they say they will service the car, ask what this will entail. Be advis

Very Impressed!
After looking at nearly 20 cars at different garages, we found the car factory, without doubt the best we had come across. We bought our car and recommended to our friends, who have in turn bought cars from the car factory. I must say that the customer service we received was second to none. The warranty that came with our car was very usefull, not often you get service like this these days. Be
