Impeccable customer service

The customer service levels from 'Cars to Go' are in my opinion the best l have come in many a year. They went over and above to provide the vehicle l purchased with the smallest issues being resolved without question. Happy, I'm over the moon.
I wish them a successful future, it would be well deserved.

I’ve had the pleasure of dealing with Chris and the team at Cars to go for over 15 years. Chris and his team have always been my 1st port of call for a replacement vehicle for my family and I. Highly recommend and has supported multiple friends of mine who I’ve recommended to him. Thank you once again for a pleasurable experience.

Chris and the team at cars to go are excellent. Recently sourced a defender 90 for me. It was exactly the car and spec I was looking for and made the whole transaction seamless and enjoyable.

Thanks and will be back again for the next car!

I recently purchased a car through this company and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Communication was excellent, everything was handled efficiently, and I felt well looked after throughout. The whole process was straightforward and stress free. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to buy a car.

Would not recommend this “Dealership”

Should have known from the start that this garage weren’t being honest with their sale! When looking around the car there were noticeable scratches to the bonnet, we were told their “in house detailer” would sort this & that they “wouldn’t ever sell a car like this” when my husband collected the car we noticed the scratches hadn’t been done, they had put it through the Polish car wash (opposite the garage) as their air fresheners were a giveaway!!
We put this aside, we paid for a trusted detailer to machine polish the car ourselves. Also when collecting the car there was a split in the back tyre which “they hadn’t noticed”. This car was also sold to us with a track tyre to the rear of the car (which is not legal!).
Shortly after we contact the garage as the spare key provided wasn’t working, booked the car into VW to be told that the spare key is 2 years older than the car itself so could not be re-programmed, however now they are aware it’s £400 for a new key they don’t want to know! They don’t have to provide 2 keys with a car however we were sold the car with 2 KEYS!! Now ignoring texts and phone calls…
I would not recommend these guys at all, they got their money & now do not give a shit!
WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!!!!

Reply from Cars To Go Christchurch

We feel this is an unfair review bearing in mind this a used car and not new so not without any marks at all and the small scratch was polished at the time and you were fine & happy to take the car & seemed satisfied, And yes the car wash next door Had Cleaned the car & given a final Hover out, Im not sure as to your point here, the Tyre we replaced at no cost to yourselves when you notified us of this even though this could of happened after the sale as a bit strange, No idea of what is meant by a track tyre as you haven't reported anything of this but feel free to explain direct to us so if an issue we can sort this if needed, The spare key had the same blade and as you know and when you informed us it was not working we paid for you to take it to Volkswagen to have Coded or whatever needed to be done at no cost to yourselves, For some reason they say they were not able to code although agreed the blade was the same, So we then put you in touch with a specialist mobile key company again at no cost, We realise this is not ideal and explained its difficult to guarantee spare keys, As you are fully aware Stuart who you were dealing with has been in hospital at his mothers side on & off for many weeks now due to poor health and hasn't been at work for 8-9 weeks to which I have seen the messages from him to yourself explaining this, And advised to you by stuart for obvious reasons to contact us direct to help address any issues.

6 weeks on

6 weeks on and then Aston is doing well and perfect. Already done 700 miles and considering it's only done 34ishk when bought so stunning.
Well recommend using these 2 guys.

I couldn't be happier with my experience at Cars To Go! From start to finish, Chris and his team were absolutely fantastic. The finance process was smooth and stress-free, with everything clearly explained and handled quickly. What really impressed me was the turnaround time – from the initial enquiry to driving away in my stunning new Maserati, the whole process was fast, efficient, and genuinely enjoyable.

Chris was professional, helpful, and clearly passionate about what he does. Nothing felt rushed or pushy – just honest advice and top-notch service.

I absolutely love my new car – it’s everything I hoped for and more. Big thanks to the team for making it all happen so seamlessly. Highly recommend!

Excellent service from Chris and the team

Chris went above and beyond to answer all my questions—even during the weekend and outside of normal hours. The car was presented in immaculate condition, and the part exchange process was handled swiftly and fairly. A professional and hassle-free experience from start to finish.

Would highly recommend if you’re in the market for a quality second-hand car.

What would you class as wear and tear ?

so why are carstogo getting a one star review? Purchased a VW Touareg back August 3rd first issue got home and noticed part of drl was not working on headlight. Messaged Nichola a few times about issue and was told one would be ordered and sent to me as ii was happy to have it fitted. But, before that was sorted I had an engine management light come on, diagnosed as injector failure. This came on within the three months warranty period. Messaged Nichola who gave me Chris's number during first conversation he asked if I had taken out a extended warranty which I had not. The next day I phoned and got to speak to Chris and was told he would not pay for injector as comes under wear and tear (over £400 fitted) during the same conversation I asked when headlight would arrive? It hadn't been ordered. I had found one on Ebay for £600 and agreed to pay £200 towards cost. Chris offered £250 which I accepted as I didn't think I would get anymore. He also told me I should have purchase an extended warranty but, after thinking about the outcome, I was not happy so phoned Citizen's Advice who advised he was in breach of contract under consumer rights act 2015. They also gave me a link to draft a letter stating this, so did that, sent one to Chris and one to Carstogo. I then received a message from Chris stating how he would not pay for injector, its a wear and tear item and was not present at time of purchase also had no idea how vehicle had been treated. I'm a 58 year old man not a boy racer. He then ended message with feel free to take this further if you feel the need only by email so I can forward it to my legal team. Do not message me on my private phone again. Which I thought this came across as aggressive and not prepared to negotiate about the issue. I have had a second injector failure which I emailed Nichola about who replied with wear and tear and would not be paid for. I offered to split the cost but they no longer reply to my emails. So just beware if you buy a car from Carstogo they will flaunt your rights and hide under the banner of wear and tear.

Reply from Cars To Go Christchurch

A little bit disappointing Wayne bearing in mind we had offered to take the car back which you didn’t want to do as you loved the car and we contributed £250 towards a second hand headlamp which would of covered the cost but you wanted a new one, then some months later you said a fuel injector had worn out which is a serviceable item and we advised we could help at trade cost as was not covered on basic mechanical breakdown warranty and offered you an extended warranty which would of covered these parts to which you were happy about and understanding, we then heard nothing & then to get a letter which again we advised, Nichola is no longer with our company so I’m not sure you would get any correspondence from her, feel free to contact myself directly so we can get you on track with cover for the future at net cost to avoid any further confusion or disappointment
