I have bought BMW 1 M sport from them exchanging my ford Fiesta which has not even one single fault . I knew it was a car cat d but however I wasn't aware that car got clocked milage which I find out after few days by doing my own check when I call them they said is system fault or person who put numbers made a mistake and all is OK. Bs ! Other thing is air bag light was on after few days now it comes to the point where there is no passages air bag at all . They told me car is after small scratch but luckily I found this car on auto trade when it was posted as damage car I guess they just quick repair and sell to any idiot who was basically me ! Now everything is with trading standards which are dealing with them . And I hope for the best . There is many other faults which were not described and simply doesn't work . Like parking sensors which would be a bonus to have and use . Granth cars never reply to any correspondence which has been send to them from me with complaint . Really avoid them don't buy anything ! They just lie about every single thing and don't listen to anything you say !

Jaguar X type bought end of December. SORN until May did about 3 days driving, then no power to accelerate. Effort to get to 50. Probably expensive Turbo needs replacing, Warranty bought does not cover. Present person at Garage says he has taken over the lease and is nothing to do with Granth Cars. Wish we had seen all these reviews before. Perhaps Trading Standards or Watchdog need to be informed.

My mum bought a car from Granths in October/November 2015 using a car finance company, upon inspection the car seemed a good buy. Within a matter of 3 weeks of that, the cars engine management light came on and the car went into limp mode when my mum was driving along the motorway dropping the speed down to 30mph... She had it checked by a local mechanic who put it on a diagnostic machine and noted a fault code to do with the turbo. She contacted Granths and told them, they said bring it over we will have a look at it, I followed my mum the 30 miles to take the car back as they weren't willing to give her a courtesy car for the day. They had it 2 days in total, they said they had 'fixed' it..... Within a week, same problem, again back to Granths, they had it again for 2 days, the 'problem' they found... Wait for it!!! They found diesel in the petrol tank!! It's a diesel car the thick twats!! This car has been back to the garage a total of 3 times in the 4/5 months my mums had it and now they've moved their business elsewhere! My mum is fighting to get her car fixed by dealing with her car finance company as well as the ombudsman service... £6000 for a car that she can't even take my children or her other grandchildren in or visit because she fears for their safety!! I hope to god you bunch of cowboys are found and dealt with! Ripping of women in their 50s, divorced and working 2 jobs to be able to have something that she thought was a good buy!!! You rude and unprofessional and I wish you every bit of karma that is coming your way as it seems we're not the only unhappy customers!!!!!!!

Truly shocking. Part exchanged my faultless car for another to find faults and the car was unroadworthy and when asked about repairs they accepted and said would do it the following Tuesday. Went down on the Tuesday to find they shut up shop and left. Have now found the company and will be taking legal action. Have bought a new car now and had to sell previous one

Melissa in response to Boycott Granth cars

Hi.. do you know where they are? I'm currently in a legal battle as they sold me a CUT AND SHUT VEHICLE... IT WAS 4 CARS WELDED TOGETHER! It's a death trap and worth nothing. Wheel lock and nut missing from each wheel also deeming not fit for the road! VIN number also been tampered with!! Horrible horrible people putting people's lives in danger!!!!!

Would never trust this garage what so ever brought a car in August 15 by December 15 had broken down been trying ever since to get them to fix it or give me my money back but they just fob me of they have change name from Granth cars to Catherine street motors. Now to something else so looks like it got to tow my car back to them and demand I ain't moving with out a full refund or my car working!! Disgusting how they treat there customers they need trading standards on them.

Laura in response to HH

Hi just wondering do you know what name they are trading under now? Just as they have fobbed a member of my family off for 6grand and we can't get it back until we know what name there under now! Thanks

Debra in response to HH

I just won judgement in court about the car they sold me. Was about to get the ball rolling and bring bailiffs in then trading standards said she went around to Granth and they are now called Catherine St Motors and they have ceased trading from that building as when she turned up it was empty and they took all there cars off some where. Now my daughter is £6,000 down, if you know where they have now gone please let me know.

I bought a car for my daughter in sept 2015, as soon as the car got dropped off we noticed problems, no working horn, hanging loose wires and insecure inner wing, they took it back a day later to fix the horn. They bought it back and then the car kept breaking down with the same problem, in the first 10 week of owning it 6 of those weeks were in there garage getting sorted. And even then after they bought it back it kept breaking down with the same problems.I took it my own fiat dealer where they found many problems with it including bodge jobs they must have done before selling it on... Iv asked for refund time and time again. Now nearly 6 months on its still broke and they ignore me when I ask for refund and ignored all my emails, so I'm taking them to court and in the process of doing this now.. Oh and then we noticed all of a sudden they have changed there name from granth to now Catherine Street motors. How convenient since I'm taking them court. Im Not happy and be aware of this company its the worse one iv come across I'm well within my rights for a refund.. Buy with caution people

Debra in response to Debra

Oh and as well as this I was told it had one previous owner and yet when the log book came back it said 5 previous owners.. Was lied and conned to from the start

Purchased a car from them in January 2016. The car had passed its mot a month prior with no advisories. I was told there were no problems with the car. Then on the way home the engine management light came on. We took it back the next week and they 'repaired' it. On the way home from that the immobiliser came on and the car would not start and it had to be pushed back to the garage. They also had to change the back wheel bearings as they were making a loud noise. I then went and had the car independently checked and was told it needed a new radiator and the front brake pad was sticking, more worrying though it had a fault with the light which I was assured would have forced the car to fail its previous mot....meaning the mot Granth cars carried out was in my opinion falsified. Finally, today after having the car just 5 weeks, the engine management light has come on again. Terrible car, terrible service, Reported to trading standards.
