"Scummy car, scummy people."

As I live In Halifax I searched the local dealers for a ford focus. Motor arena have a terrible reputation locally but the did have a car I was interested in. I know they have been hauled through the courts many times for selling very dodgy cars and have been on the tv''s The Sheriff are coming. What an experience I had there. The car was very scruffy and overpriced. Can you believe the horrible salesmen became aggressive when I pointed out many problems. So be warned. Dodgy cars and dodgy people go together. Stay away.

Paul Richards in response to Scummy car, scummy people.

Buyer beware. From what I have seen and heard stay well away.

Micheal Trent in response to Scummy car, scummy people.

What I don’t understand is these lot have changed the name to easy car credit. We all need to go on the easy car credit reviews to warn the buyers. In June after loads of 1 star reviews in one day fake reviews have go on so the 1 star gets pushed down we all need to make new customers aware of this company now changing name to get away with previous bad service.

RAC affiliated..loads of complaints...what do the RAC do...NOTHING...more bothered to collect the £££'s...RAC are as bad as these if not worse for knowing what they are doing & letting them get away with it..

Went to buy a car on monday. was told it had fill service history and timing belt done. Paid for it today then realised this wasn't true. Was told we could buy it or get our money back, no movement or explanation. Rang RAC whontold us as an RAC warranted garage they have to follow standards including doing a timing belt which is past its interval, otherwise it avoids it's own insurance. When I informed them of this they said straight off they were refusing to sell us the car and would give us our money back. I moved my car on to the forecourt as it was chucking it down. I got asked to move it. Granted by this point I had had enough and said no as it wasn't in anyone's way. I then got told to leave the premises so I went out to my car followed by a sales guy telling me to "F*ck off" and get out repeatedly. He was extremely threatening to a woman. All this on top of the fact nobody wears masks on test drives or in the offices and don't practise social distance either! AVOID

Sounds about right for them. If that place was a restaurant it would have been closed down long long ago but as its a car dealership its allowed to continue trading. You see the RAC affiliation & think its a trusted seller but they just stick 2 fingers up to customers & the RAC accept it. Makes you wonder how the RAC local rep allows it to happen£

I am livid with the state of the service I have received from this dealership. They are con artists and rude, deceitful, ignorant people who don't give a toss about any of their customers. I bought my car 18 months ago off them under the idea I was covered for 2 years by the RAC for recovery AND that my car had been officially serviced before purchase. Fast forward to now - my timing chain snapped on my car and motor arena have 'no proof of servicing' because it was 'too long ago and we don't keep records that long' and proceeded to hang up on me and avoid my calls. Will be reporting them to the RAC. The car was damaged and faulty from the get go and we were LIED TO SEVERAL TIMES. Don't put yourself in danger. They take advantage of nice people. CRIMINALS

I too had issue's with them but despite reporting them to the RAC & speaking with the RAC they did nothing & are just as criminal as motor arena. At least the AA withdrew its affiliation with them as they will not associate their brand with anything that can bring it in to dispute.
