Bristol Trade Centre Car Supermarket

Advantages: Some of their cars are not that bad
Disadvantages: Run by ruthless, lying, arrogant management

I must be honest, we are delighted with our new Vectra and it is running very well, however the experience getting there has been somewhat stressful. We were offered £2000 part exchange, which we were not happy with so we walked away. A salesman actually chased us out to our car and offered us the £3000 that we were looking for, so we agreed to go ahead with £2500 deposit and £2000 finance. After being pushed to leave a deposit, we returned the ...
...We were surprised that this whole process only took 30 minutes, and left feeling quite pleased, as we overheard several people saying that they had been waiting around for over two hours. When we got home we looked over the paperwork again only to discover that £3000 had been put on finance, I called the next day so they could correct their mistake only to be told that the extra £1000 was for various insurances and guarantees. We definitely never ... Read review

...like to inform you about BRISTOL TRADE CENTRE. Few weeks ago I bought a car from them, and basically, I can say that is my worse experience as a customer since I am living in this country. as I discover in the internet that I am not the only one who is not happy about them. To be honnest I was very naive, I just trusted them thinking that they were honnest. BTC sold me a car with lot of problems, firstly I had to wait a week before taking the car. ...

I bought a car from BTC that cost £5000.00. It was only 2 years old with 21,000 miles on the clock. The salesman promised the earth to me. If I left the car with them for two weeks before I collected it they would sort various things out such as filling in a scratch on the paintwork, new wheel covers and a full valet amongst various other things. On collection nothing had been done to the car since I last saw it! and I had made another 3 hour journey ...
...things such as a manual and a jack and a toe rope loop etc. So, I went back down to the salesman who proceeded to take these things out of another car of the same model, therefore leaving some other unsuspecting person without them! When I eventually drove away in my new car I discovered it had many things wrong with it including the fact that I was driving with my feet in a puddle of water whenever it rained. They made me make another 3 hour journey ... Read review

Advantages: Very good at making the sale
Disadvantages: Crap after sales

I bought a VW Golf GTi from BTC recently. I was encouraged to part ex my old car and take this one home the same day as the salesman would earn extra commission. This suited me at the time and I arranged to take the car back up (130 mile round trip) to have the cambelt service, valet! etc done then. A courtesy car was provided and the cambelt service and brake discs & pads etc were replaced. As I collected the car, they didn't have time to do the ...
