Reposting here as they are manipulating their google and trust pilot reviews. Poor experience from start to finish. A1 pre-arranged arranged for me to travel from 4 hours away to conduct a part …More 3 A1 Ortos Ltd (owner) a year ago Hi Mr Noble, unfortunately after several attempts to call you I only have the option to respond publicly. You are indeed correct that you were informed a hand over with a part exchange is not something we can generally cater to without prior arrangement however you were offered alternative ways around the predicament you found yourself in as you had travelled a great distance. An agreement was reached with a view of checking your vehicle in the following day to ensure it was of the quality you had described to us, this is unfortunately where the complications began. Following the check in of your vehicle you were informed the vehicle failed to meet our retail standard, following this news you requested A1 Ortos to 'make a bid' at your vehicle. Due to the plethora of faults and problems present on the vehicle this inevitably took some time which caused a delay in the conclusion of our dealings through no fault of A1 Ortos. These faults with your part exchange vehicle are clearly no surprise to you as you have left VW Cardiff negative feedback at a date which coincides with your invoice left with the vehicle you have part exchanged. If you had been open and honest with regards to the standard of vehicle you was looking to part exchange this whole unfortunate circumstance could have very easily been avoided and it is somewhat frustrating that you feel the need to leave your feedback bearing in mind your full knowledge of the circumstances. The car you purchased from A1 Ortos in contrast was a grade 1 vehicle with a clean bill of health, your outrageous claims regarding our vehicle are a callous attempt to slander A1 Ortos yet again. I wish you all the best with the stunning vehicle you have bought from A1 Ortos and should you wish to contact me back you are more than welcome, unfortunately I have been forced to respond via this medium due to being unable to contact yourself via the telephone, Kind Regards A1 Ortos.

K B 6 reviews 2 months ago Thoroughly impressed by A1 Ortos. Joe was very knowledgable about the stock, and the two cars in particular I was interested in. I wasn’t rushed, and he gave me time to think. The whole process from start to finish has been very pleasant! Phil Noble 9 reviews·1 photo Edited a year ago Poor experience from start to finish. A1 pre-arranged arranged for me to travel from 4 hours away to conduct a part exchange on a Sunday. When arriving they said they don't do part ex on a Sunday. A1 said therefor the only way to proceed was to take out finance and they would pay me the next day and I can cancell the finance during the 2 week cancellation period. I was tricked into taking out this finance against my will with the garage knowing the only alternative would be for me travel all the way home then another 12 hour day the next day. It's been 3 weeks, 18 calls (in which they always say they will call back and never do) I had to pay off the finance myself as they hadn't stuck to their agreement and left me hanging past the 2 week cancellation period. On top of that, the car I bought recieved warning lights immediately, and it turns out the entire front bumper and splitter weren't even connected to the car in any way whatsoever. Just an overall poor experience where they clearly dont care once they have some money off you. This seems to be a common occurrence based on other recent reviews Edit in response to below response: My poor review were not about the state of the part exchange car which I did not have a problem accepting it had problems. Hence accepting a v low price - no problem. They were about the contempt at which your company treats customers. 18 unreturned calls in 3 weeks, and still nothing weeks after agreeing to the low figure after inspection. Being sold a car in a dangerous condition (unarguable proof available) and generally being messed about. Judging by reviews this is a recurring pattern of behavior. Perhaps a change of approach and treat these reviews as lessons learned and improve rather than damage limitation and avoiding any responsibility.

Avoid A1 Ortos at all costs. Me and my partner, bought a car here in August 2025 and it turned out to be a complete disaster. Within days, an independent garage confirmed multiple serious faults — heavy corrosion to the subframe and chassis, worn bushes on all arms, exhaust problems, and more. These are major safety concerns that should have been picked up at the most recent MOT, along with the A1 Ortos inspection. The dealership knew about some faults and failed to disclose them, then tried to fob us off with a token “goodwill” payment instead of taking responsibility. We’ve since obtained written evidence that these problems could not possibly have developed in just 30 days. The DVSA has been informed about the MOT, and we are now preparing legal action to get our money back. They sold us an unsafe car, ignored our rights under the Consumer Rights Act, and forced us to put our two young children in a vehicle that should not been on the road. The car is now sat on our drive, not roadworthy and we are now having to hire cars to get to A to B. They're are an absolute joke! Their behaviour has been disgraceful and we will be proceeding with legal action against them.

I bought a Discovery Sport, The car wasn’t ready for 12 days, when I got it and all the paperwork was filled out for the day of purchase 250 miles had been put on the clock. They then spend 40 odd minutes trying to badmouth the finance company’s warranty and try to flog you there own version that they assure you is the real deal… is clearly not worth the paper it’s written on. Then the fun began, after getting in the car and being assured I’d have enough fuel to get to a petrol station, I had 3 miles of fuel in the car. Fast forward 20 minutes, I’ve now filled up and I’m on my way down the M6, the suns shining. I turn in the Aircon and nothing but warm air. I contacted A1 while heading home and I was fobbed off repeatedly, 7 days later they finally agreed to book it somewhere of there choosing to be looked at, 45 mins after the repair it was back to the same place as they hadn’t fixed the issue at all. Then the dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree, I rang them and they were not interested whatsoever. Joe and Dylan were always too busy to help. The finance company’s warranty spent 3 months battling with them before they took the car from me after independant reports showed all issues with the car have been present a while and they had done there utmost to mask them. The independent review also noted the dashboard fault codes had been cleared the day before I picked the car up.
I purchase a 13 year old second hand Audi Q7 from A1 Ortos and the customer service I received was outstanding, everyone at the garage was always more than happy to help with any enquiries I had. I needed a large family car on a budget so had to go for something older, which I was reserved about especially being a diesel, this garage sells really nice motors they seam to pick out the cleanest ones and reasonably priced. The Q7 I purchase being a exceptionally good condition part exchange A1 Ortos had taken in, they made sure the car was in complete working order. There own qualified technician fully tested the car in every way and anything required was completed regardless of cost. I can honestly say in the 23 years car ownership I’ve never dealt with a dealership as honest as this one. Family owned and built on reputation these guys really are about their customers. I 100% recommend and will be returning for my next motor. They also offer comprehensive warranty’s unlike no others I’ve seen before for extra piece of mind which I would recommend. Thanks Kenny, Dilan, Marc and Paul the car is spot on, see you in the future.

I recently purchased a BMW M3 from A1 Ortos in Oldham, and the experience was outstanding. Kenny, a member of their sales team, was extremely helpful throughout the process. He addressed all my queries regarding the vehicle, and the handover was excellent. The car was presented in immaculate condition, reflecting the dealership's commitment to quality. I highly recommend A1 Ortos to anyone in the market for a quality vehicle.
I recently purchased a Land Rover Discovery from A1 Ortos in Oldham. Tony, a seasoned sales executive with over 30 years of experience, guided me through the process. His methodical approach and extensive knowledge ensured I found the perfect vehicle to suit my needs. The Discovery was in outstanding condition, a testament to the dealership's dedication to quality. I highly recommend Tony and the team at A1 Ortos for their exceptional service and quality vehicles.

Many years ago, a young man named Paul had a dream of owning his own car dealership and in 2008 A1 Ortos was born. After his experience in several main dealerships he learned a lot of key skills which have been refined to do things differently, the right way, the A1 Ortos way! We believe everybody should get the opportunity to buy the right vehicle, at the right price, without the old pushy sales tactics, as buying a car from us is a very special moment in your life and should be treated accordingly.
All of our staff come from a customer service background which is displayed in the real family atmosphere created. Regardless of the amount of money being spent we strive for the same professional yet friendly and comfortable buying experience for every single customer. Making sure our cars leave at the highest possible level is important to everybody at the A1 Ortos family and we make sure no corners are cut in any way, as Paul has always said 'if a job is worth doing, its worth doing properly!' After all, buying a used car with a new car feeling is a very good feeling!
