Having seen so many bad write ups on them I would never buy a car from them.

wifes mate bought a 2005 astra from them and when i looked at it the car still had masking tape on it from the bodyshop, wing and door was a differnt colour and poorly fitted battery insecure aswell, i would not touch them with a 10ft barge pole quality cars my arse and repayments are a joke aswell, still i would never get in debt for a car stick with old ones and making them nice i think.  :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

Bought a Audi A3 from Car Giant a good few years back, had no issues with them. But it was paid for with car allowance and I was in a rush to get a car.

Second hand car buying is pretty much lucky dip wherever you buy car from unless you are good at spotting issues and know what to look for, even then its not fail safe....  If it can be helped, never rush into a used car, take your time, try and get some decent warranty.

I remember my old man buying a mk3 cavalier tdi about 15 years ago from carcraft (or whatever it was called back then) in Cardiff. Was pissing down on the way back from picking it up, and the wiper motor packed in.  :laugh:
