Car was brilliant for the price for the first day. Then EML light come on, inconsistent revs and stalling. Mini found it to have completely incorrect oil, old spark plugs all to have caused problems of course so now needs new catalytic converter. Air-conditioning was faulty. Breaks were fitted backwards! At first I thought it was just new pads needed but was in need of full discs and pads on front aswell as wear sensors front and back with rear discs and pads turning around and refurbing. Multiple other small issues on top of all of this. Hassle hassle hassle! Not worth the lies and stress from here regardless of what they say. Thousands of spent to get back to alright condition! Useless seller! Update 20/04/2023 after owner reply. I have proof from MINI and mini mechanics with a page full of faults that I had to fix. They were shocked that someone managed to force pads on incorrectly. 90k Old spark plugs from factory and incorrect oil found in the engine, shot rear shock absorbers, rear window washer pipe leak, vanos timing out (due to oil and spark plug issues) left front bearing needed replacing, the list goes on. Yet you claim it's a bogus review. You do this on a regular basis, never mind the fact you didn't have the vehicle log book upon purchase and I had to sort all documentation myself and prove I purchased the car all from myself. You should take these reviews and improve your business. I think registered Mini mechanics know what they're talking about in comparison to whoever you claim to use that does the jobs wrong.

Avoid! Like others on here we never received a warranty by email of which was promised on the day of the sale and again after speaking with them. Why it isn't done at the time of sale I do not know, surely that is part of the sale paperwork, but we failed to question this assuming it would be done. I noticed a cut in the seatbelt a few days after purchase which we hadn't noticed, which I rang about, he was going to try to send one through the post. Yet again nothing sent. This should not have past the mot it has just had! Also we don't believe a service had just been carried out which they claimed it had just had. Now after failing an MOT with ourselves we don't feel a legitimate MOT had been issued. I wouldn't buy from again and I would advise you not too either. As I cannot answer your reply. In addition to my previous review and a reply. I gave my email at the time of purchase and again via text message it was definitely correct on the text(which I still have as proof that i sent him the correct email address). if you know you have sent it to the wrong email then I should have been contacted to be informed of this. If my information has been sent to somebody else this is another issue, GDPR!. Anyway like I said avoid unless you don't want your warranty or your personal information sent somewhere it shouldn't.

Avoid this seller. Not honest. I bought a car which had a timing chain issue and i agreed with him to sort it myself. I asked if the car has any other faults or issues and he said no everything else is fine and works. Car has been delivered to my property and when i tried to start the car the battery was dead. I jump started the car and i used a dedicated diagnostic tool to find out that the car has several other issues. High presure fuel pump fault. Inlet camshat dephaser(i knew about) Torbocharger air circuit Downstream oxygen sensor AC doesn't do cold at all The car is supposed to have 3 months warranty and i was supposed to receive the details over email whoch never happened. Now he blocked my number also. I have proof of conversation and i have the picture of the faults. Avoid at all costs!! Update 09/04/2023 You never sent the warranty documents as you mentioned over the phone and in the WhatsApp message. You lied about the fault this car had. You said the car had issues with the timing and i agreed on that only and i asked several times if there is anything else about the car. I had to replace : Turbocharger High pressure fuel pump Timing chain kit (agreed on this) Electronic belt tensioner + Other bits and pieces Stop trying to excuse yourself. It's more than clear that you do this on a regular basis ( by the reviews you get). You lie and nothing more.

Avoid like the plague. What horrible unscrupulous crooks they are! We have tried to be fair and reasonable and do everything legitimately but regardless they will not adhere to the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Sick of receiving notifications on the part exchange car that we have informed DVLA about. Parking fines Tax notices, clearly the vehicle is being used. I suppose we will be seeing a name change very soon. Rude, bad mannered, and completely unethical in the way they work. And like that there's a response which is an absolute lie. Basically backing up my review!!! The part exchange car was that old and bad that whoever from your garage chose to drive it without any of the correct documents and was photographed in a hotel car park at 2 in the morning!! Images we still have. I gave a fair and honest review of a situation we found ourselves in. Take it as constructive and maybe change your approach to your business!
