I was lied to.

Salesmen at Huntingdon Autos were friendly and helpful I thought (my first experience of buying a car through a dealer) but having agreed to look at my car for a possible trade in they then proceeded to lie to me. They stated they wouldn’t be able to sell my car as the mileage was too high (at 211, 000 it was high but I had told them that previously) and that they would offer me £100 as they would have to scrap it. I was surprised to hear this as the car was mechanically sound and well maintained. However as we had driven some distanc to view a car which I wished to purchase, we accepted their offer with sadness and their (false) apologies! Checked their website two days later and surprise surprise the ‘only good for scrap’ car was up for sale for £995. The car I bought I am happy with although it is missing some parts to use the tyre weld, and they didn’t have the locking wheel nut so had to take it to their ‘tame’ garage to drill out the lock nuts! Have only had it a couple of days so hopefully no hidden problems will arise. Liars and cheats, I will never buy another car from these fraudsters again and I will ensure I advise everyone I know to avoid them. Very disappointed.
