I purchased a Kia Sportage off this ‘reputable’ dealership over 3 weeks ago. I live over 130 miles away so viewing was not really an option, a slight gamble but I took the risk due to the description, the photos, video and the dealers word on how ‘great’ condition the car was in. On his description it said a slight crease in the wing but unnoticeable in his words. I didn’t see an issue as I could get this sorted, everything else looked great so I went ahead with it. I told the transporter to give a once over of the car and call me before loading it on to his flat bed. I had already told him I knew about the wing so anything else. He said a slight ding in the bonnet. So I call the dealer up and he proceeds to start his list of lies and deceit here. Claiming it was in the description, the description I was looking at whilst on the phone to him. I compromised with him and said if he would work with me to get it fixed I won’t bother kicking up a fuss and go ahead with the sale. He agrees so the transporter loads the car then sets on his way. 4 hrs later he arrives, car looks ok on the flat bed so off he brings it. As he is reversing the truck off he touches the brakes at the bottom and it begins. A massive grinding in the pads, absolutely horrendous. It’s at this point I notice one of the ‘advisories’ was the pads. Obviously not just an advisory, an absolute must. So I then put the car on my drive and give it a once over. It’s at this point I see all the misdemeanours of the vehicle. Not only a slight crease in the wing, it’s a full on scrape and dent along with another small one further down. 2 thumb size dents and chips on the bonnet. A horrendous patch job on the back which has been hit, the inside looked like they had a let tiger. Scratches all over the interior, some weird red stains on the back seat and big chunks out of the plastic in the boot. The car hadn’t even been cleaned let alone properly valeted. But this is all just cosmetic but enough alone for anyone to return given the fact that NONE of this had been disclosed before hand. After realising this I checked the electrics of the car. Gear stick was stiff and took effort to actually shift up and down, then I open the Panoramic sunroof and it doesn’t close. That was the final straw, I immediately called the garage to which I had no response or reply at all. I then call the finance company who had to phone the dealer. The dealer dodged all of my emails my calls and txts. He refused to pay delivery and refused to have it picked up. He also refused to send the funds back until he had seen the car even though he knew I hadn’t drove it at all. The car sat on my drive for 2 weeks until the finance company finally managed to organise a pick up of the car. Dealer still dodging all my calls and messages at this point. He has now had the car back for OVER a week and still no word from him, no refund of delivery and no return of the funds so I can buy another car. Buying a car is supposed to be a nice and enjoyable experience, it couldn’t have been more of the opposite. I honestly couldn’t tell you to steer clear enough of this lying scheming dealership especially this guy we dealt with. Like a back alley trader who’s used to selling faulty goods and getting away with it. Disgusting

David was a thorough professional right from the moment I contacted him. The whole process was very smooth. Very much impressed with the way things panned out in this purchase. I strongly recommend BarnYard Trade Cars Ltd to other potential buyers.

I had been looking for a particular car for a couple of weeks but couldn't find a suitable one in my area. After widening my search, up popped the car I wanted. I gave David a ring and asked if he could do a video, so I didn't have a wasted journey from Nottingham. I was going to have to travel by train to view. I liked what I saw and left a deposit so it would be reserved. I was picked up at the station in 'my car', and drove part of the way back as a test drive. It was just as good as he had said it was and I was happy to purchase. I was able to come home in it and am very pleased.

Saw a car advertised on EBay and after a telephone conversation with David we agreed on a price. As we live over 300 miles away and could not travel immediately we paid £100 deposit(knowing that this was non refundable) After a long drive down David spent time introducing us to the car before we left on our own for a test drive. The car was everything that David had promised. It was a pleasure doing business and would highly recommend anyone looking for a good car at a fair price. As our son in law is looking for a car we have left our "wish list" with David and hope to hear from him soon!!

I had been looking for a specific car and spec level for more than a month and had the good fortune to see David's advert. Called discussed the car,honest and open with no pressure whatsoever. Travelled three hundred miles,David picked me up at the railway station,had a road test and was then left to look over the car with as much time as I wanted. David was available if I had a question and put no pressure on at all. Bought the car and drove home. Absolutely faultless. A genuine person who is highly recommended. Many thanks David.

I have just had a good deal with David at Barnyard, he and his worker were most helpful in every way like swapping my personal plate and other things, everything went smoothly which made the deal worth it
