I want to clarify that this is not a bad review, but only the story of my experience with Mr Radford, which will surely be useful for people looking for cars. On April 8, after a first telephone contact with Mr Steven Radford, I bought the black BMW 3 series, year 2007, plate number mv57lzc. I paid £ 500 in deposit, then £ 2000 for a total of £ 2500. On Saturday 17th the car is ready with the new Mot, after having failed the first verification test. Mechanic and staff, very kind, very cordial and very professional. Saturday evening the car stops, it loses power something is wrong. I warn Mr Steven Radford, who makes a telephone appointment for me on Monday. Having decided to return the car to Mr Radford's garage, I have the car checked first from the Coventry mot center. The car has a disastrous diagnosis: eletric fan - sporadic current fluctuations - engine oil temperature at time to hight-valvetronic internal fault- valvetronic power limitation servomotor - battery voltage to low. The mechanic from the coventry mototec center commented at the end that the car could never pass the mot. This was explained to Mr Steven Radford, who was very willing to collect the car from Coventry and bring it to his showroom. After verifying that the car was broken, he offered me two options. Repair the car and hand it over to me again. Refund me only £ 2000 as the £ 500 deposit was non-refundable. I tried to explain that the deposit is not refundable in case the customer changes his mind, not if the machine is with the engine fault. But in the end to get the money right away I decided to get the compromise in which I was asked to join a private agreement via email, which included a penalty of £ 10,000 if I left a bad reference on autotreder. For this reason I don't leave any bad references, I put 3 stars. But no one can stop me from sharing my experience. The car is now on sale again at a price above 2500, I'm sure my £ 500 maybe went to repair the car if it can be repaired. However I want to say that Mr Steven Radford is a very polite person who knows how to speak or rather how to write, an excellent business man. I'm sorry that the machine was faulty. Maybe it was just bad luck. Thanks anyway.

DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS MAN! Disgusting disregard for customer! I bought a Land Rover Freelander from Radford Sports cars T/A Turves Green Service Station 4/12/2020. I paid £2200. It was DELIVERED to me on the 5/12/2020 On the 25th of December (Christmas Day!) it developed an Engine malfunction indicator (M.I.L.) amber light comes on during driving. Exhaust is smoking. Consuming excessive amounts of diesel. Sunroof does not work. Driver heated seat does not work. • 28.12.2020 - Called Radford on 07537165815. He did not pick up my call. • 28.12.2020 – Called Turves Green Service Station. I was initially told they would be able to pick up the vehicle from my address using a tow truck, however I was asked to call back the next day. • 28.12.2020 - Radford called me back, when I explained the situation he said he was happy for the garage to sort things out with me. Did not say that he was not able to transport the vehicle. • 28.12.2020 - Called Turves Green Service Station. Was informed that Radford had told them that it was up to me to transport the vehicle. This is not possible as it’s not usable to drive. I am also aware that it is their responsibility to collect it was they delivered it when I purchased. • 28.12.2020 – Called Radford. He was evasive on the phone. Said it was up to me to sort out transport. He ended the conversation by putting the phone down on me. • 28.12.2020 – Called Citizens advice Consumer helpline for advice. They are reporting the matters described to Trading Standards on my behalf. • 30.12.2020 – Letter sent asking for a full refund within 14 days. No response received. • 11.01.2021 – email sent with an attached copy of the letter sent. 12.01.2021- email sent by Auto trader reminding Mr Radford for his obligations under the Consumer Protection Act 2015. I was given no paper work on my statutory rights to a 14 cooling off period and am interested to note that the sale has been processed as a private sale where as I was under the impression I was buying from a dealership. When I first spoke to Steve Radford, he wanted me to make a bank transfer to a private bank account which I did not feel happy about and am in hindsight relieved to have used my credit card to pay as I hope you will be able to afford me some protection against this man under section 75 of the Consumer Protection Act 2015.

An unfortunate unpleasant experience that lost us £100s. I recently bought a VW Polo GTI. Due to coronavirus we had the car delivered. Particulars: Alloys and paintwork repairs agreed were not done. Three advisors on MOT - two tyres and brake discs that were failed to be disclosed. These had to be repaired and replaced to make it road legal. The car inside on delivery was very dirty, stains and marks on seats, dashboard and carpets, holes in seats - it's a shame i can't share pictures. Engine mangement warning light and bulb management light on permanately. One Key No service history (although advertised with FSH) Gear box change fails. My insurance company contacted me a week after insuring it to tell me they are cancelling my policy because the car was subject to a serious right off in 2015 but they didn't disclose the details. Sadly none of this information was disclosed in the ad and we were given inaccurate info. Partial refund received we lost hundreds of pounds. Be careful.
