I'm looking at buying a new car from these guy's. The price is very good.
Does anyone have any good or bad stories regarding this company ?

Thanks.

You won't get many bad opinions as this site's policy does not permit 'naming and shaming'.

I believe that they operate in the same way as the intermediary I used when buying my car. They introduce you to a main dealer, all funds go to the dealer not the broker, and the broker is paid an introduction fee by the dealer. If so, then there's almost no risk. Touch wood.

Their prices are very good, I used uknewcars.com (financed thru Freeway-RBOS) and have had no problems.

If you are local (North london/South herts) you can always go in to see them and get things organised on the spot. Take 4 cakes with you and you will be very welcome.

Mention this site and my recommendation.

I think their prices are good but they either don't do part-exchange at all or discourage it.
