Thanks, bit of a mixed bag reviews there though .

I bought from them. Can't complain, utterly painless experience.

I went, must have gone on a bad day enough to put me off another visit.

I read,but re-reading the thread some went and didn't like either the stock or the showro, but those who bought had no issues ...

It's too far for me to mess around with though.

I bought one car there. I'd recommend someone like 911V for a good buying experience.

Visited them twice. Seemed like good guys. Mate bought a C4S off them and found them first class.

I think all dealers have good and bad days. I had a bad experience at 911V and said I would not go back but if they had the right car I probably would! Although when I say 'all dealers' I am naturally excluding HWM who seem to have the worst reputation I have ever seen in this and multiple other forums and sites. How they stay in business beats me but still......

This is 5 minutes from me, I'd be happy to go and have a look for you and give you an honest opinion if that helps? Previous body shop experience (admittedly some time ago!!) so not too bad looking at paint etc. And I'm a fussy git!

I thought they were fine, crap warranty though £2k claim limit not adequate

I bought my 997 C4S from them in May this year.

Nice enough chaps - they seem to have some much newer stock at the moment.

I would buy from them again.

Thanks for the offer , but it seems they sold the car I was looking at .

Personal experience. I liked a car at Cridfords but hadn't sold my own car. They said they'd hold it for a maximum of a fortnight (if I recall correctly) for a deposit of £1000.

Contrast with 911V who held my car for 2 months for a £500 deposit and throughput put me under absolutely no pressure to 'complete'.
