Just wondered if anyone has ever dealt with Performance Car Company in Havant (Portsmouth) and have any reviews / testimonials?

I had dealings with them a few years back. Brought a Brabus Smart Coupe. Have to say the chap was very pleasant, the car was spot on as he decribed, and was immaculate.

I believe he doesnt keep his cars on a forecourt (when I brought anyway) so met him at his house, and did the deal there.

Wouldnt hesitate to use them again,infact, im goign to browse him now, see if he has a Chim!!

A good friend of mine bought an E46 M3 from them, the car was very well prepared and the deal was swiftly and pleasantly negotiated.

So is it a dealer or just someone operating from their house?

My bad, long day! I bought, or purchased even!!

When I purchased mine, it was at 8pm at night, so I believe that was why he did it at his house, which is fair enough. However, he has a large showroom (warehouse stylee) which is immac, and the cars in there are all stunning.

Wouldnt hesitate, infact ive just dribbled over the Tamora, but cant afford it frown

Ok, that makes sense, thought there was a showroom.

I believe there is, I just used to work silly hours (hence buying a brabus with cash at 19) so it wasnt viable. He went out of his way, and got a sale. Picked it up 5 days after buying it, so he could make sure it was serviced, mot'd, taxed, and valeted. So happy when I picked it up, when I looked at it, no fuel at all, when I picked it up, 1/4 tank, which was a lovely gesture!

I sold a Smart Brabus Roadster Coupe to them in 2009 as I was desperate to buy a Honda S2000 that I had seen. Didn't give me anything close to what I wanted for it but I wasn't really expecting it from a dealer and I needed a quick sale.

Sent a guy up on the train to Hull the next day and he waited until the money was cleared into my account then drove it away.

Would have no qualms about dealing with them again.

As said he does have a small show room tucked away. I was looking at him buying my ST Focus a couple of years back but we struggled on the price him not going up and me not coming down, nice enough chap very polite and straight to the point(a refreshing change for a car dealer).
