First class customer service

As an older single woman buying a car is quite daunting. But William was so helpful and informative that my purchase is proving to be highly successful. After failing the MOT all necessary works were carried out and even the missing trim was ordered and sent to me after William personally delivered my car. I cannot praise the customer service provided by this company highly enough. Highly recommended.

WISH I COULD GIVE 0 STARS - 3 MONTHS OF STRESS

First things first, I have wanted to post this review for over 8 weeks, however I was told if I do “things wouldn’t be good for me, and I’ll slow the whole process down” on the phone therefore I have waited for the dispute to ruled in my favour.

If I could give zero stars I would.

I bought a Ford Focus 2011 plate through this dealership. When I went to view it I noticed boot was full of water (a puddle) I have owned a couple of these models before so I know it’s a common fault, but I was told it was condensation by William, and then had a phone call from Richard stating it’s because it was raining a lot. I requested this was sorted before collecting.

Prior to paying I explained fully to William at the time, I will be sending this vehicle for a full health diagnosis to a ford specialist, as I know the common faults with these models. On the add the car was described with no issues and drives perfect, however it failed every check.

1. Combustion test failed - exhaust gases are within the header bottle pointing to a head gasket failure.

2. Compression test failed - all 4 cylinders had different readings ranging from 147 - 160. Yet again points to head gasket

3. Coolant leak - when the car was delivered to me the water had been topped up past maximum, yet the level was on minimum 3 days later, which yet again points to head gasket

4. White smoke was very clear also

The dealership has obviously encountered this situation many times, as opposed to taking on board the diagnostics I was told he would not be able to comment on them and the car is fine due to it driving ok on the test drive and it has no warning lights on the dashboard. He hasn’t taken any accountability for having just sold me a faulty vehicle, when he was the one who described it as mechanically sound. He told me he has no emotional attachment and it is “just a business transaction” which is far from the claims of a “family run business”. He told me his legal team would be involved.

I then raised this with my car broker, who told me the dealer is rejecting my claims as the company (who tested the car)aren’t a real company. He demanded that an independent company come and re do the same tests, which I had to wait 3 weeks for. They also found exactly the same results, as I knew they would.

It was advertised as full service history, however only come with 6 receipts. I was told the book with stamps was in the office on viewing, however after delivery it was not there. I was told these 6 receipts would qualify as Full service history. To claim as full service history requires a record of all work and servicing carried out to the requirements of the manufacturer.

Vehicle is still on my driveway, it however is being collected buy the auction house due to dealership still rejecting. I expect this review to be deleted, as I can see others have disappeared but I will repost. This has been 3 months of pure stress.
Google the owners name and that’ll tell you everything you need to know.

I have been without a car for 3 months, without a way of getting to work or drive my daughter to nursery, not one person cared.

Happy to give Greenpoint Car sales 5 stars

Happy to give Greenpoint Car sales Ltd five stars . Richard Parmer who arranged to purchase my car gave me confidence that I was dealing with a reputable company. Richard travelled down from Essex to Devon and kept me upto date with arrival time. Selling process was made straightforward. Happy to recommend. John M

Wants money to even view a car

EDIT - thank you for your reply William, I have the messages on ebay and WhatsApp to back up what "I am claiming".

‐---------------------------------------------

Won't do business with you unless you part with money - £150. Before being allowed to even view!

I dealt with Richard.

As a genuine buyer asking questions about its history then asking to view, they even had my post code, so I would have been travelling for this car - I get a very informative replying saying the car will have a fresh MOT (current until Dec24 anyway) and it can be with me and then delivered next week - however I have to part with money beforehand and they will only "prioritise" customers who part with money "as we are a small business", it was polite ended with "good luck with your search".
Even had the old I've got another buyer interested.

I wish you luck Richard in selling cars the way you do!

Hi Vena,

I can only assume something was lost in translation. To say I am flabbergasted is a huge understatement. If we operated in the way you are claiming we wouldn't have so many excellent reviews. See our reviews on Trustpilot, Car Dealer Reviews and our website.

Apologies for the misunderstanding.

Fantastic experience

Really good experience, the car was just as described and having now driven the car for the past month it has been faultless. It was a seamless transaction and couldn’t fault the company in any way, a breath of fresh air!
