Dodgy car dealers

Wanted to get my partner a car and thought as McCarthy Cars was a family run business, it would be safe to buy a second hand car there. The salesmen was very nice and chatty, obviously to make a sale. I paid half of the sale and the other half was put on finance.

We were told the car was semi automatic but drove the same as a fully automatic, never was the word easytronic mentioned or we would of researched this and found out the bad reviews.

Straight away after collecting the car there was problems. The gears were struggling to change. I did pop in and see them and was told this was normal for a semi automatic car. The headlight was full of condensation and the Air conditioning was not working.

It was booked in to have the work carried out at their approved garage. They said they put a new Air con. condenser in, replaced the clutch and flywheel and replaced the headlamp backing. All that was ticked ok on their 82 point RAC inspection.

The car came back with more problem, groaning noise coming from th

The buying process was a joy
When I began a search to replace my existing Mercedes Benz 4x4 I had in my mind a used Mercedes model and year of manufacture that I really wanted but felt I could never realistically find. As most people do I started searching on the Autotrader website and to my amazement I actually found the car that matched my specific requirements. If you take into account that I meticulously looked after my
Went the extra mile.
As I have never been very keen on buying cars from a used car company it was with some trepidation I phoned McCarthy Cars who invited me to see their range of cars as I had taken a liking to car I had seen on ebay. When I arrived they had already organised the car and simply tossed me the keys and invited me to take it for a spin which I did. No pressure, no salesman sitting next to me- just me te
