Carsunder3000 Reviews 

Great experience, Rik and Adam were great at helping us find a new car and getting everything ready for us to drive away

Just bought my car from them. Such good customer service from Adam. No matter what question I had he answered it. He made buying a new car so easy to do. Also all the staff I spoke to was so friendly and helpful.

Very good customer service I recommend

Very helpful staff
I bought a lovely car it had been cleaned and checked over and looked like new. I have bought my last 2 cars from them with no problem

We came to look at a car today after talking to Chris on the phone. When we arrived the car was ready for us to look at defrosted and running. We were given plenty of time to look over the car with no pressure and pushing from Chris, after a test drive we decided to purchase it. The process was so quick and smooth. All the members of staff especially Chris were so friendly, helpful and answered all our questions.

It was a fantastic experience with Cars under 3000. Especially Mr Adam, his support was appreciated. The best customer support till the end. Thank you Cars under3000.

I had a great experience at Cars Under 3000. Adam was the salesperson who helped me, and he was very friendly, professional, and easy to work with. He made the whole process simple and stress-free, answered all my questions, and made sure I was comfortable with my purchase. I’m really happy with my car and would definitely recommend Cars Under 3000 to anyone looking for an affordable and reliable vehicle.

Lovely welcome and very friendly staff! Great customer service!

Had been looking for a bigger family car for a while. Finally found one that fit the bill. Visited CarsUnder3000 and drove away with my new car within the hour. An absolute pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended.

I had the pleasure of making a deal with Adam who made the experience smooth, quick and easy. Very trustworthy garage and always helpful.

Professional and friendly service, Josh made the whole experience relatively painless.
Many thanks

⭐ 1 star – Serious concerns, would not recommend

I’m posting this after seeing a close friend go through an extremely stressful and expensive ordeal after buying a car from Cars Under 3000.

Within just four months, the car suffered a major timing chain and camshaft failure, resulting in a £3,000+ repair bill. This came after my friend was clearly told at the point of sale that the car was well serviced and that the timing chain would last the lifetime of the vehicle.

The warranty that was sold alongside the car was practically useless. It was the lowest level of cover, poorly explained, and offered no real protection when a serious engine fault occurred. My friend was left entirely out of pocket.

What really raises alarm bells is how things were handled afterwards. When my friend asked for proof of the pre-sale service, the documentation provided did not look credible. The “service invoice” had no mileage recorded, appeared to be a generic template, and was created and emailed within minutes of being requested. From an outside perspective, this does not look like genuine service history and seriously damages trust.

On top of this, my friend was told that consumer rights are a “grey area”, which is simply incorrect and deeply concerning to hear from a car dealer.

Watching this unfold has made it very clear that when something goes wrong, this business does not take responsibility and instead appears to deflect, minimise, and dispute rather than help.

Based on what I’ve seen, I would strongly advise people to avoid Cars Under 3000 unless they are prepared for potential major costs and a battle afterwards.

⭐ 1 star – Avoid at all costs

We bought a car from Cars Under 3000 in July and it has been a complete nightmare from the moment we bought it.

Just four months later, the car suffered a serious timing chain failure, leaving us with a repair bill of over £3,500 .This is despite being explicitly told at the point of sale that the car had been well serviced and that the timing chain would last the lifetime of the vehicle.

The warranty they provided was practically worthless. It was the lowest level of cover available, this was not properly explained, and it refused to pay out for this major engine failure, leaving us fully out of pocket.

When we asked for proof of the service they claimed to have carried out before sale, we were sent documents that raised serious concerns. The “service invoice” had no mileage recorded, appeared to be a generic template, and was only produced after we challenged them — which does not inspire any confidence in its authenticity.

When we raised our legal rights, we were dismissively told that consumer rights are a “grey area”, which is simply untrue.

Overall, this dealer sold us a car that was clearly not fit for purpose, then attempted to deflect responsibility when major faults appeared within months.

Cars Under 3000? More like cars that will cost you £3,000+ after the sale. Avoid. Proper cowboys.

In response….

Your reply publicly misstates the Consumer Rights Act 2015.

For clarity, within the first 6 months of purchase, the law presumes a fault was present or developing at the time of sale, and the burden of proof is on the dealer, not the customer. This is not optional and not a “grey area”.

An MOT, test drive, or PDI does not assess timing chains and does not override statutory rights. A major timing chain and camshaft failure within four months is exactly the type of fault the Act is designed to cover.

You also did not address the concerns raised about the service documentation provided, which was generated minutes before being emailed, contains no mileage, and appears to be a generic template rather than contemporaneous evidence.

I am still awaiting a resolution in line with your legal obligations. But have been ignored on emails with very little help .

Bought a nice little grey fiesta. James was very helpful from start to finish.
Excellent service

Great customer service! Quick and easy turn around. James was super helpful, easy to get hold of, of any questions, he has the answers! Would 100% recommend.

Rik was very helpful and went above and beyond.

Excellent service....nothing was too much trouble

Great service from Codi and the team.

We were able to look around the cars with no sales pressure. Codi was great. Answered our questions about a few different vehicles we were looking at then spotted a DS3. He gave us the info and so took it for a test drive. Fantastic little car, Codi was quick and efficient as a salesman. Buying the car was a breeze. Thank you. Would definitely recommend carsunder3000

The company was amazing, got my first ever car since passing my driving test.
Got it with ease, no stress involved and the sales people were so helpful.

Thank you so much for my car!
I would definitely recommend this place for people who need a nice cheap, handy car.
