AFFORDABLE FORDS - VAUXHALLS, ROVERS, MAZDAS ETC.
Advantages: Vast selection of cars, low mileage, reasonably priced Disadvantages: Gets very busy at weekends
...WE DECIDED TO GO TO FORDS OF WINSFORD
=
I had actually bought a car from them a few years ago and my husband bought his last car from them, so we were aware of the vast choice in cars available, how reasonably priced they were and knew they were a trustworthy and reputable company. Fords of Winsford won the "Which Car" award for Britain's Best Car Supermarket in 2002, 2004 and 2005. And with good reason ... ...and transit vans. Fords of Winsford do not actually sell brand new cars, but many of the vehicles for sale have a very low mileage and are always in superb condition. They tend to sell a lot of fleet cars which usually have a low mileage and it is for this reason they can afford to sell them at such reasonable prices. Although no new cars are sold here, neither will you find old cars. The cars for sale usually date back no further than five years. ...

Wilsons Car Supermarket
Advantages: None Disadvantages: They cannot be trusted and are dishonest
...wife a Toyota Yaris from Wilsons for £6000.00 in May. It was one disaster after another.
Firstly the car I bought was up on their website at £5300.00 which eventually they reluctlantly honoured after bringing it to their attention. Then they said that they could not locate the log book as they had initially had sold the car to someone else. I was told he has failed to secure the finance on the vehicle and subsequently the car came back on site. ... ...book. I was offered compensation for all this by the salesman but the so called director (Rude bitch) refused to honour this.
To add insult to injury they said that they would send off all the documents to the DVLA including the part I was supposed to send off. This never happened and I was fined £40.00 by the DVLA for failing to notify them that I ghad sold the car.
They also never supplied the locking wheel nuts for the car and the car was involved ...

BE WARY OF BULLISH SALES AND PARALLEL IMPORTS
Advantages: Can't offer any I'm afraid - good deals to be had from standard dealers at moment Disadvantages: can't be trusted - If you like gambling they're great.
Motorpoint Glasgow - nearly duped into buying Ford Fiesta 1.4 % Door Titanium.
Be very careful before you buy a new car from motorpoint. Bullish sales tactics on phone - they will reduce deposit from £500 to £300 for you - a 'special deal'. The spec of the cars they sell are no where near that of UK cars. They use parallel imports (in this case, Malta).
When I asked about spec they initally said that they 'couldn't guarantee' the final specification ... ...subject to deposit refund if spec vastly different. Car transported from Derby to Glasgow. I e-mailed them the UK spec and was then told it (the spec) was exactly the same 'except for the floor mats'.
It turned out they had frankly lied to get me to view the car. I got to Glasgow to view car - Vastly different spec - Instead of Ford Fiesta Titanium it was more like Fiesta Style/Zetec.
I would imagine they deal with all makes/models of car in the ...

Not a good place to buy a car!
Advantages: Price of the car was cheap. Disadvantages: It took 3 attempts to get car driving properly. Horrible customer service.
I have just bought a car from CarGiant and found it an extremely stressful and unpleasant experience. Buying a car from Car Giant is not something I would recommend that anyone does. At one stage the “customer service” people were being so unreasonable when I made a request of them that I vowed that I would share how bad my experience had been with the widest possible audience unless they at least considered my request for some sort of refund for ... ...that anyone who buys from Car Giant does so with their eyes wide open. I’m posting this review in as many places as possible in the hope that everyone who needs to see it will see it and avoid the error that I made. I had read a few poor reviews of Car Giant before I bought, but not enough to dissuade me. I hope that this adds to the information out there to allow people to make an informed choice. My basic advice would probably be – don’t. My experience ...
