williams motor co - Cardiff
Discussion
tter beggars belief.I sold my porsche to this guy directly, none of this sale and return.. cheque bounced.. blah blah blah, received another cheque which cleared, luckily my drama lasted just over a week. When the cheque bounced i googled and found a horror story where some poor guy on sale or return was getting the run around, which made me very nervous..
Months later my mate was then selling his car, zero interest on here or autotrader, so he went to williams, I warned him to only sell direct due to the horror story i had found, but unfortunately he did the sale or return.. car sold straight away and payment was to be spaced over 3 payments (god knows why), took close to a year to get it all back... every excuse under the sun was made not to pay, blamed it on his payments lady(not that he ever had one), only when it came to breaking point did the cash come..
Expect alot of angry sellers contacting this douchebag today

Regularly seen revving around Cardiff central. Used to go to the gym at St Davids hotel, his 430 was parked at an angles across the front entrance regularly.
Had the misfortune to be in the Spa at the same time, he burst out of the sauna guffawing as it was too hot, and then lowered his sweat ridden form straight into into the jacuzzi , where I was sitting. I looked at him, ' u gotta probluuum ?' he replied....where I retorted on the way out, 'why don't you take a dump in here while you're at it'. Classy bloke.

Only read the first page but interesting nobody named the place. The rules protect scumbags. I realise they could be used to do damage to reputations but usually plenty of others come with the opposite opinion if that's the case.DO NOT trade with this guy. He is an out and out dodgy dealer a la Arfur Daley who will rip you off.
My car was supposedly in his showroom on display when one day I received a speeding ticket from Avon police, a long way from Cardiff!! Further investigation revealed he had sold the car several months earlier and never informed me of it.
I was one of the lucky ones who got some money for my car though I could never get a sales invoice out of him & never found out what price it was actually sold for.
A distinctly dodgy individual who is breaking trading laws on many fronts and should not be allowed to practice business with the general public.
I should have taking things further with trading standards, but later found he had been fingered by BBC Watchdog. My expectation is that he will soon be closed down for rogue trading.

Could you not trace the new owner and ask him how much he paid? My car was supposedly in his showroom on display when one day I received a speeding ticket from Avon police, a long way from Cardiff!!
