Had a poor experience when selling a car to Motorpoint Edinburgh. No issue with the valuation. The issue was getting paid. According to their own T&C's for selling a car if you agree the sale before Midday then the payment will be in your account the same working day. This did not happen in my case and trying to phone them is like pulling teeth after 80 minutes of not answering my call I gave up. Simply looks like somebody has not done their job and authorised the payment. Would not recommend this company for selling your car.

Recent car purchase

We did our homework and selected 3 cars that we wished to consider. Lewis Threlfall made our car purchase very easy. We never felt pressured into buying anything we didn't need. The car we now have was within our budget and we are very pleased with it.When Lewis was not around other members of staff were very helpful indeed. We will buy from Motorpoint again.

Selling a car to Motorpoint

The sales person ( Dougie ) at Edinburgh showroom was extremely professional and polite.

He took the car away and tested it, took it to the workshop to have it thoroughly looked over.

He returned and gave me exactly what I was offered on the provisional offer.

Very easy to deal with, very open and honest.

Thank you.

They were very attentive to my needs and concerns. Special thanks to Connor McGrath, whom I met a year ago when I first went there. Even though I didn't make a purchase then, immediately I contacted them, he got on my request immediately, was very responsive and patiently explained everything I needed for my purchase. Would definitely recommend Motorpoint for your car needs.

My experience at Motorpoint

I bought a care from Motorpoint back at the start of April. To say I had a great experience would be an understatement. Steven Kelly helped assist me from start to finish. Allowing me to look at all the vehicles, see what my needs were etc. it was just a very pleasant and easy experience. I bought a car the following day and have been really enjoying driving it since. I really recommend this place as it leaves you feeling with a lot of reassurance about the vehicle you have purchased. Thank you again to Steven for making it so comfortable for me.
