justlooking 48 Posted November 18, 2018 What with social media and online reviews becoming more powerful I’d be intrigued to know if dealers like this still exist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BHM 994 Posted November 18, 2018 Of course they do. I’ve not watched 20-odd minutes of video but such bollocks as social network reviews have not made trading ‘safer’. There will ALWAYS be traders with sharp practices, just like there’ll ALWAYS be twatful punters. Social media, or any other bullshit, will not change this because this is human nature. A few posts by a few dickheads amongst their friends amounts to sweet f.a. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave2302 387 Posted November 18, 2018 I have to say, what kind of stupid person would walk into that yard and buy a Car off them especially one with no V5, looks like a Scrapyard Judging by the number of noobs who come on here asking how to wriggle out of a customer complaint I'd say there is a fair few "5 Star Cars" still around Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BHM 994 Posted November 18, 2018 Just watched the last 5 minutes. Personally if I’d driven up to their property and saw what worked there I wouldn’t of got out of my car. Anyone who did so may as well have “I deal with anything, I’m as thick as pig shit, please rip me off” tattooed on their heads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nick M.K. 574 Posted November 18, 2018 I remember one episode from years ago, I think it was car servicing but could've been construction... This elderly Essex wide boy with a voice and talk exactly like Ray Winstone very politely asked the "undercover" client lady to look out the window and tell him What colour is the grass? "It's Green." "It may be green but I'm not, love." and kicked her out of his office... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He looks very deflated in this confrontation, normally he is the one pushing but this time he couldn't quite believe the situation he found himself in.

JimmyGlen 13 Posted November 18, 2018 Good watch, but as stated earlier, some of the big boys should have a surpise visit too. That would make for even better telly. As for 5-Start, anyone buying a car from a dump like that really deserve whats coming. the warning signs are everywhere. Did you see the shut lines on that what SEAT!!

MrV 66 Posted November 18, 2018 A guy up here has recently been taken to court by multiple billy's, if someone made a complaint to him or rejected a car he told them to F off and if they pressed the matter he sent a few "heavies" round to intimidate them. He's that well known around here, when I made my last sale the buyers actually admitted that they were weary buying from me because of what he had done and that my Facebook page reviews were the only reason they came to me! Guys like this can really damage the rep for local used dealers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
