‼️ Riverside Car Sales ‼️ AVOID AVOID AVOID If I have any luck, it’s bad luck 😩😩😩 on the 14th July I bought a car from these. Absolutely lovely car, full service history, 40k miles and relatively cheap. Upon driving home, the car went into limp mode. Two days later, engine management light was on. I sent the car back to get fixed, all seemed well, car is returned. I had no further problems until the car started to blow plumes of smoke out of the exhaust. Contacted the finance to return the car and get a refund, for the garage to say ‘we don’t do that here’. However, it is the law. I had 30 days to identify them of a fault for a refund. They refused. Had an independent engineer come out to tell me - The head gasket was going - the turbo was going - they had taken the DPF filter out - the DEF was broken - There was a huge problem with the emission system. Even after them having evidence of this - THEY STILL REFUSED. It has been proved that they have disabled the sensors to tell me of a problem and made the car unsafe for me and my CHILD to be in. This garage has continuously made lies up about me, stating they have contacted me - they have fixed my vehicle. Bla bla bla. All untrue. 4 weeks after returning the car to them, they still haven’t paid me my lump sum deposit and left it to the finance. If anyone sees this car for sale. AVOID IT. LC66 LWE!

I was told to reserve the car on line and pay the £250 deposit, they are now saying that this was not compulsory and are refusing to pay back my deposit. I would never have reserved the car through a 3rd party unless I was told that I had to do this by the Garage. What a bunch of con artists - Buyers beware go to another Garage if this is how they make their money it clearly shows they do not hold the Customers as their priority and don't care how they make their money. I didn't even view the car.

All they sell is broken cars … after getting my car checked by a garage the car needed to go to the scrap yard it’s a big risk you take but I wouldn’t take it with these

Bought a Mercedes based on the words of the dealer. I was told that the car has a full service history but it's to be obtained from the dealer. I believed his word, bought the car and brought this to Luton. when I called the dealer, they only found the first one but no more. I called back the Car centre many times but the main man wasn't interested to talk to me. All in all it was a pretty bad experience for me. I will not recommend anybody to buy car from them or if you do you need to be very careful and don't trust on their word.
