we have been selling cars for a long time now and pride ourselves with our reputation, and quality of our cars also the amount of care we take in ensuring the car is as safe as possiable carring out repairs servicing and MOT’ing before the customer picks it up.
Unfortunatly this eats into an already tight profit margens and compered with others this makes our cars expensive.
A price todays public are not prepered to swallow, THINKING WE ARE the sharks!!
So to save a few hundred quid thinking its a bargain go and buy one from some dodgy back street dealer
I am sorry I do not have a lot of sympathy for these pepole. But I did not make them buy it, and have seen it so many times over the years, usually in the garage side of my business putting wright what these dodgy dealers won’t. I agree we need some form of regulation and they deserve all they get but it would be impossible to police as they can dissapear overnight
If you are driven by the depth of your pocket be sure you know what you are buying if its cheap its cheap for a reason.
Security and safety comes at a cost.
Basically you don’t go to Tesco and exspect Harrods service and quality
