World of cars at Trago

[JaySTee]

Anyone have any experience with this trader? My folks are looking at a car with them but I've not been able to find much info on them other than their website...

They are probably as good as any but the fact that they are at Trago's worries me

Never heard any bad reports from there.Infact some of their cars look pretty clean to me.....have looked in the past for a mate.Just do the normal checks and really give it a good viewing with an independent person.

I beleive they are unrelated to trago, other than leasing the site.

Cars generally not bad. Some come from auctions, same as any trader. I would look at them if they had the correct car

Around 18 months ago, I went to World of Cars and enquired about a test drive in a Subaru WRX or Mazda RX-8. They refused unless I agreed in advance to purchase the car, subject to test drive. I didn't like this so walked away.

I've not had these conditions elsewhere. In fact, of the three other WRXs I tested, two of the dealers let me go off on my own, no questions asked.

Thanks for the responses chaps, sounds ok then other than the strange experience above, how can you agree to buy before a test drive

Edit: read it again - buy subject to test drive - unusual in cars I guess but I used to sell boats and they are generally always sold subject to sea trial, although it is a little more involved/expensive to trial a boat...

I haven't bought from them, but have looked at a couple of cars there in the past. The cars looked good and genuine. The staff were helpful enoungh. Test drive was no problem. In fact I remeber getting a surprisingly high part-ex offer on the car I had at the time.
