Report
Our car was sat on our drive for 2 yrs, we were worried we would have to remortgage our house to pay for everything. But the guys at Keith Motors were amazing! Starting with Ian reassuring me to just start with an MOT, the guys who came round to jump start it, Tori for constantly updating us to (finally) the friendly welcome we recieved when we collected it. Thank you Keith Motors Christchurch

Report
Absolutely horrendous experience. Purchased a Mercedes A class. Was told the vehicle was in showroom condition, not marks, dents and all the alloys were going to be refurbed. Drove 2+ hours to collect the car and when we arrived the car had damage, all the alloys had acid damage and not repaired, the sat Nav was stuck in German. After being told they will sort this if we took the car and got quotes they then backed out and advised they weren't prepared to fix any of the issue as it was not cost effective for them even though this was all agreed with the manager. AVOID AVOID AVOID.
