Guys, I'm looking to buy a vehicle from WR Car Sales in Bradford but can find any review of them online - I'm looking at a van but thought I'd post a link for an RS4 seeing as I own one with 50k less miles on. I'm not saying that this car is priced incorrectly - it seems reasonable, it's just a link to their website - anyone dealt with them? I repeat - I'm not buying this car, it's just a link to their site - I'm after a van they have and am looking for anyone that has used them - thanks! The van is a Hiace and I just don't want to get stung is all!

Ive got nothing to say that will help you, but I just wanted to say they do love their Lancia Delta Integrale's.

I don't know anything of them, but would almost place wads of cash on the mobile being the best number to catch them on and the phrase 'innit bruv' being a popular one.

I work in Bradford. I wouldn't buy a car from an independent in Bradford.

Harry Metcalfe of Evo bought his Intergrale from them.

Got a decent review in Evo as easy to deal with.

There is a theory that goes around never to buy a car from Birmingham or Bradford.

Incorporated 10 months ago by the sole, 27 year old director (fronting perhaps?). Having worked in Bradford for two years, I wouldn't buy a kettle from there.

That generally is the rule with places like KTC operating but from what I've heard these guys aren't meant to be too bad. Their new premises is about 5 minutes from me and looks fairly professional but cant actually comment on what the service is like.

As with KTC I'd be checking google for reviews via other forums although Harry Metcalfe seemed to be pleased with them so I'm not too sure.(second car he's bought from Bradford )

Yeah im from Keighley, KTC must be doing well as the cars that thy have for stock are just exotic.

Even seen them rolling around in a Brabus Rocket. They bring home some beautiful cars!

The usual rubbish from 10 Pence Short, ignore him.

They seem to turn over some reasonable cars - I'll get the vehicle independently checked out - they don't seem too bad and I'm not looking at exotic wheels - thanks all.

I used to look at their website a few years ago, then they went missing for a while, then reappeared. Put their name into google, see what comes up.

I will say that while they get an occasional minter, some of the gear they used to flog, mainly the Skylines, were sheddy as owt and priced like minters.

There's a cheapish mazda 6 mps on there that might be worth a punt. As they're only about a 20 min drive I considered looking but then found this thread, now I'm not sure

Years ago I went to have a look about Keighley and was put off by the condition of some of their cars, and obviously I've heard all the bad things regurgitated on the internet. But, has anybody here actually bought a car from them or a similar indie in Bradford? If so what was your actual experience rather than hearsay? Based on my visit it wasn't for me and at the time it was just lots of fast cheap Jap cars, but as said there are some nice machines for sale there and someone is obviously buying them.
