"Audi a5 1.8 tfsi"

Bought a lovely audi a5 off paul who is a genuine guy. The car was in very good condition as described. It did develop an electrical fault before the warranty period was up and paul happily had the car back to get fixed. He kept in regular contact with updates on the car while it was in the garage. When the car was fixed he contacted me to let me know it was ready. He also gave me the paperwork for the work that had been done. I feel paul values his customers as well as his business. Genuine guy. Thanks again to Paul Whatley Cars.

I recently enquired about a Audi A4 and on the phone I asked Paul all the obvious questions for example what’s the bodywork, alloys and paintwork like and just general stuff to get a feel for what the car would be like and I was told that it was in “perfect condition”so I put my £300 deposit down for the car as I didn't want to lose out on what sounded like my perfect car. But after a hour and a half journey to see the car I discovered that this was not the case. The first thing I noticed is that the front left wing and the rear bumper was a different shade of white presumably because the car had been in some sort of accident even though Paul told me that the car had never been in a accident there was also paint marks on the rubber seal on the windscreen and the passenger door was out of line with the other body panels. Yet when I pointed this out to Paul I was told that he didn’t know anything about it yet it was very clearly a different shade of white. My next problem is that the front left alloy was very badly scratched up even though on the phone I was told they were in a “perfect condition” but they were clearly not. The front left wing also didn’t not line up with the bonet. All this was setting of alarm bells for me so I didn’t buy the car and ended up leaving very frustrated that this joke of a company has wasted my Saturday and my fuel driving to the dealership when if Paul had been honest on the phone and told me the genuine problems with the car I would have never even considered the car! I really don’t appreciate being lied too and I hope nobody will fall for these tricks at Paul Whatley Cars in the future!

Sorry to read a rare negative review about the car body work which put you off, even though we offered as any garage would to get it rectified or return your deposit in full as promised if you did not wish to proceed, which is the option you chose, we take on board it should have been appraised better, over the phone while standing by the car would have been ideal as to being else where at the time things get missed on used cars which can have wear& tear by the previous owner which you and your brother saw on the nine year old vehicle after checking it in fine detail. we did come out to meet you as you was having a frustrating sat nav issue trying to reach us ,we also kept the car inside and dry so you could have a good look round it on arrival and took it for a test drive which it drove well, and finally ended up shacking hands with both of you as you left.

Purchased an Audi A4 from Paul Whatley Cars a few months back, car was brilliant! Has a few ear and tear things you’d expect but nothing major. Recently found out there was a major engine fault, Audi put it back together and Cost was covered very quickly under the warranty provided. 100% recommend Paul Whatley Cars.

Coming into the second hand car market was something I had been concerned about but the dealership was recommended as we had to travel a fair distance to the Midlands,but was assured it would be a worth while trip and it was a nice car and nice people to deal with, even picked me up from the train station to collect my Honda Civic, Thank You.

"Avoid"

Recently bought a car from here. The rear brake started making a noise on driving within 100 miles of driving away. Turns out it needs new rear brake discs and pads both sides. The start-stop function did not work. The USB connection to the entertainment system did not work. On informing the seller of these problems, he showed no interest whatsoever, claiming it was all wear and tear and part of buying a used car. Not pleasant to work with at all. Avoid this seller who is clearly only after making as much profit from as little work as possible and does not care about safety or customer service.

Staff from Paul Whatley Cars in response to Avoid

Thanks for the review but i feel the wording "avoid" is a little strong as it does not reflect the over all picture of what occurred over the vehicle in question ,which had just been reduced that week only for this lady after seeing and test driving the car and commenting how nicely it was presented at the time to ask for a further discount which was agreed on the basis and written on her invoice for any wear &tear ,which when she called the following month after purchase to mention the discs had started to corrode and could do with replacing it seemed obvious that she had received money in hand for this servicing repair,as for the other matter of her stop start issue i offered to have that looked at free of charge but she replied that I dont really use the feature and i cannot be bothered to bring it back anyway.

Paul and his son were an absolute pleasure to deal with, even staying open out of business hours to allow me to collect my car. They took my old car as a PX against a beautifully maintained and presented 3 series BMW tourer. Both are very friendly and approachable, and I wouldn’t hesitate for a moment in recommending them to anyone.
