I would recommend the guy I bought the car from. George loves cars, but he was just working there back in 2010. I think this branch of the dealership has moved now.
I bought a car from them almost 7 years ago. They offered warranty.
A week later I was rear ended. The impact highlighted a problem that wasn't noticeable before. They had a look at it and fixed it. The rear bumper was fixed by insurance. I am still driving this car. It has its quirks like any second hand car has. It needs regular maintenance which I put on the priority list and get done so I can enjoy my car. Glad I bought it. Thanks George.

Approximate cost: $7000

For me, these guys are the bottom of the car sales barrel. We purchased a car from them and took it back a few days later saying there were problems with the engine. They happily took it back and had it looked at. We receieved it back and within a week it was back again. This time whatever they did lastest over a month, then we were asked to take it to another mechanic. This process dragged out for months and the car was never really in a good condition.
Long story short I took them to court and the judge told me that any reasonable person would have taken it to another mechanic again. Just out side the courthouse, [redacted personal identifiers] thought it was appropriate to swear at me, laugh and make rude guestures. Classy guys.

I've told this story to hundreds of locals now - and I continue to tell it everytime someone tells me they are looking for a second hand car. What every you do - think carefully before buying. And if you have chosen to purchase from this company and you are experiencing problems - use the legal cooling off period and return the car promptly, [redacted generalisations]

Bottom of the barrel business.

Bought a volvo had steering and coolant problems went about 7 times to the company they sent me to have problems fixed NO luck. Now problem is new radiator and rack and pinion
and they REFUSE to pay and don't want to know me. Mucked around for almost a year so they can now say not there problem . BUT they had been informed of the problems within FIRST week for steering issues and within another week to 10 days for leaking coolant. I would NEVER recommend this company. They even denied any knowledge of the problems and tried to say that salesman left and not there concern. There guarantee isn't worth a pinch of salt and they are extremely rude. Wish they treated me like that before a bought the car- show your true colours so we can buy from someone decent and honest!

Approximate cost: $10000
