    5 Stars Superb service and advice 13/05/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Comprehensive web site, buy from main dealer, good prices

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No trade in facility, but helps sell online

    Superb service, helpful Broadspeed staff who gave me plenty of useful advice before i decided what to order. Once I narrowed down my choice to a Skoda 1.9 TDi Elegance Automatic (diesel 105PS and £35 a year), I completed an online pre order. Then I called the broadspeed activation number (they said they get 250 enquiries a day and needed to identify those ready to order) to progress my order. Next step was an email quote which confirmed the terms of the orfder ie price, delivery date (which they explained was plus/ minus three weeks), final fixed price etc. I paid £1000 by credit card (which ... more

    1 Star Dreadful, misleading and unprofessional. 09/05/2006
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages None.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Very good at talking utter rubbish.

    We placed a pre-order enquiry, for a Honda Accord with Broadspeed and were informed twice, that we would be contacted by Honda, when the order would be officially placed. We became fed up after a fortnight and several phone calls, so we rang again and were informed that we could have a car at one thousand pounds higher than we were orignally offered. This morning I spoke to manager man, who informed me that 'Mr' Honda, does not like selling vehicles through internet companies and therefore, was 'being difficult about it all. After I enquired about the other seventeen people who had ordered ... more

    4 Stars Good prices and advice, quick service 23/03/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Web site better than most others, helpful people at broadspeed

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Couldn't get a test drive, but I knew what I was buying (second Renault)

    Good experience. I ordered a new Renault Megane and saved over £3700. My local dealers offered max £1700 off! Just follow the steps on the broadspeed web site and it will be a piece of cake. Paid a deposit of £500 and the balance when I collected it from the dealer. I had some optional extras fitted so It was a factory order and I had to wait for two months. Dealer guaranteed the price for me in writing. It arrived spot on time and was just as I'd ordered it. I collected it from the Renault dealer in London and didnt have to wait more than 2 weeks for the log book (I was the only name showing) ... more

    5 Stars It isn't a myth. 01/07/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages You will save a fortune buying a new car here. Fast, content- and feature-rich site. Hepful staff.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Delivery times of up to around 3 months.

    You really can have your car imported from europe and get it way, way cheaper than buing it in the UK! Broadspeed.com quotes lots of figures of just how good a deal you can get. One example is a RHD Nissan Almera 1.8 Sport, 3 Door, that in the UK retails at £15,300 and they can get for you for £8,520!!! The site itself is attractive enough and full of good information and features, with a realtime chat feature connected to an irc channel with people from the company there to give you quotes on anything they don't have listed or answer any qustions you might have. It's also not a crawler ... more

    5 Stars Brilliant service, worth £99 just for the advice 17/01/2010
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Best price I found, good advice, very quick, good communication

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Still have to visit showroom to see colours etc

    I have just taken delivery of my new Audi A3 ordered online (and it's perfect). When I decided to buy an A3, I visited the local showroom and was ignored. Then called for an appointment and was offered free carpet mats instead of the 12% off I found online. When I told them I could get 12%, they told me that a) this was impossible b) if it was, the Audi would be an import. It was neither. Broadspeed dealt with my old car separately and though the price wasn't fantastic, it was very straightforward (they introduced a trader who collected it the day before the new one arrived). When the Audi ... more
