WARNING - SCAM DEALER

DO NOT BUY FROM HERE

I mistakenly bought a vehicle from these scammers, it arrived in such poor condition I have had to spend nearly 2k getting it sorted. Let alone getting the thing cleaned as it had been obviously kept in a field, under a tree for some time. They didn't even have the decency to clean it. Milage was even marked as suspicious on the DVLA website. They also buy fake reviews on Auto Trader which tells you a lot.

DO NOT BUY FROM HERE

We bought a car from parkside which has given us nothing but problems we have had to pay out £3000 to try and fix it and it still needs more work! When we contacted the dealership they were rude and didn’t take any accountability for the pile of crap car they sold us they are not taking our calls. There is no way they didn’t know the car wasn’t fit for purpose! They are just happy to take peoples money they should not be in business!!!! They are crooks and liar’s AVOID AVOID AVOID

NOT a big professional dealership

The reviews say it all - NOT a big professional car dealership.

The website makes it look like this is a big pro car dealership, as does the swanky call system. The iffy no-VAT rock bottom prices, fake photo's with 'big dealership background' and awful, borderline rude, "customer service" gives the game away - this is just a loose confederation of backstreet garages. And I mean loose - I'm not even sure that they are on speaking terms!? ;-)

Drove 80 miles to see a car that was advertised on several websites only to find it wasn't at the showroom and they couldn't actually get access to the car, as it was at a different site. Which was closed at the time and they didn't have the keys. WHAT? The fact that I'd called up and spoken to someone before I left home, who had confirmed that a viewing and test drive were definitely possible pushed this over the edge for me. Timewasters. Avoid at absolutely all costs.

Avoid

Avoid this business, and any subsequent businesses they may form. Overpriced scrap cars is the best way to describe the vehicles being offered.

Untrustworthy garage

Untrustworthy garage. They sold my 17 year old son a car they claimed had been serviced, which was simply not true. The oil filter was so rusted, it clearly hadn’t been changed for a very long time. Nobody at the garage, including the manager, was prepared to address the issue when the car broke down completely. The cost of replacing the engine is more than we paid for the car. The garage refused to engage and passed it to lawyers. Do not buy anything from Parkside Motors in Bolton. You will buy trouble in one form or another.

Pay a deposit and take your chance but....

I paid a £250 deposit on a car waited a couple of months for it to be MOT'd only to be told it was not possible to economically repair!
I looked at another example at the same price but was then told it wold be more expensive than the listed price because Parkside had found more work was needed.
This being unacceptable I asked for and was promised my £250 back. Haveing chased several times I still have not had a refund 8 months later.
