  We bought a used Ford Fiesta in December 2025. During the test drive, the tyre pressure monitoring system was flashing on the dashboard. The seller was aware of this and said it would be checked - it wasn’t. The car shouldn’t have been sold with a potential safety fault and we therefore contacted our local Ford garage to have the TPMS checked at a cost to us of over £350. 2 tyre sensors were completely flat (battery operated), 1 partial and the fourth practically out of power. We contacted the seller and he informed us that if the car went to his repairer (not Ford) then they would look at it. However we weren’t happy with this and had already taken the car to the Ford garage. We know what the seller will say to this review, but we wouldn’t buy from this seller again. Detailed response noted from seller - just what we expected. We fully appreciated the age of the car when we purchased it and the pre-delivery check and reset of TPMS system obviously didn’t rectify the issue. The front near side tyre was checked by a tyre company and they couldn’t find any puncture of valve fault. Despite the warranty, we decided we wanted the car checked and repaired by a garage which had previously regularly serviced the car. We had to proceed with Ford as it was already at the garage and to delay by taking the car back to Autotrend when it was sold with this issue meant that we decided to proceed with Ford. We disagree that the TPMS is not essentially a safety function… you could be driving and get a puncture and a working system would alert you to this. The car was in limited use over the Christmas and New Year period hence the time delay.

  Great selection of cars at very fair prices. I went to look at the same car a few times and at no time felt pressured. All my questions were answered and I was able to arrange a test drive to fit in with my working times which was brilliant. I am really happy with my new to me car and look forward to driving it for many years to come. I would really recommend looking here for a car as you will get great customer care.

  Chap seemed nice and polite and he sold my mother a Renault Clio for £1300 after buying her old Ford Fiesta for £100 (we could have got £135 for it!) She had the car for 4 days and the radiator started to leak. She took it to a garage and after the mechanic checked it over said that at least £600 worth of work needed to be done. She went to drive it home when it was fixed and one of the coils failed! All in all very poor service and won't be going there again and will advise others to keep clear!!
