Worst Company for used cars!
I honestly don't know where to start.
Please do not buy from this company. If you really need a car, you would be better taking a chance on eBay!
I am not one to argue with businesses, as I know so many people have them and get 'hard' customers from time to time, but I was more than fair with these.
Firstly, they are sat behind Fox Garage on Doman Road, Camberley which makes them look like the same legitimate company, they are not (Choice Autos and Fox's are on the same plot) and one member of Fox staff even said to me "what did you expect, you brought a car from them" when I was having a bit of a laugh about my situation with them to see if they could help. They are great!
Now for Choice Autos Ltd - I purchased a used car from this company recently... within 1 week, it was back in the garage getting major repairs that they tried to bill me for > Over £500+ !
I had done barely any miles in the car since purchase.
They claim that it's not their fault that the engine was on the way out and the head gasket as its a used vehicle.
They got the car to a working condition (as I understood).
I decided to pay what they wanted for ease, to get the car back from them, and thought well at least its all done now for the future.
A week later it overheats, and other small problems like smell, leaks, peeling cover up paint job, start appearing.
I try to book it in for a conversation/to show my frustration but am told its busy so to call back another time, luckily i have access to 3 other cars I can use from family so I was happy to wait.
Eventually after 2-3 weeks of chasing, emails, calls and website messages they got back to me.
I ask for a full refund, told no but to schedule in them to look. I ask for a free/replacement repair overall - so a new car of same spec, I am told no.
I drop the car off and am left without one for many days.
They have the car in and eventually I am called and told there are no issues apart from general wear and tear that is to be expected with used cars.
I know there will be the odd thing on a used car, but this stuff went above and beyond.
I can't write all day on the back and forth I had - but the outcome is I am now stuck with a faulty car, out of pocket and am going through consumer law to see what can be done.
Please check others reviews on Google and online, they all say pretty much the same!
