MAP 5 Posted October 7, 2018 I’ve seen a fair few posts slating some dealers selling knackers on Dealer Auction. I thought I’d post something a little more positive. I’ve bought a few from Holdcroft Group in Stoke On Trent, through DA, and have to say the service I’ve received has been excellent (And the cars to!). Steve Walker is the manager there, and seems a very straight chap. Cars and paperwork are always available, no messing, no waiting, descriptions are spot on, even over described sometimes. Hopefully there are a few more decent dealers out there to? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dan W 57 Posted October 8, 2018 I work at a main dealer ( Family owned garage ) but put most of our trade cars on dealer auction, think we sold about 120 now and not had one issue, have heard some of the guys who come to collect the cars tell us horror stories about other places.
