Customer reviews of Hothfield Cars

By Mike C on 24 September 2016 | Verified purchase

Excellent! I wish all car dealers were like this. Very helpful, not pushy, but there to answer questions. Also very helpful in sorting the various paperwork involved. The quiet, relaxed manner made it an enjoyable experience, which otherwise could have been quite stressful. First Class. The car is brilliant too. Thanks. Mike Cotton

Nowadays treating a person who just walks in of the road is an art.Hothfield Motors know how to do it, nice to do business with this firm. Can not say much about the car I bought as I have only had it 5 hours and done 20 miles but it seems great.

Buying our daughters first car. Great choice of cars. Talked us through the options. We tested out the cars. Took us through the buying process and answered all our questions. Good value for money with a low mileage, small car. Many thanks.

Garage sales blurb nothing like advert. Doesn't accept credit or debit cards as cleatly stated; wanted £5000 non refundable deposit to personal account rather than business account. Never dealt with a garage like this before. Avoid.

Iain, Thanks for you review, as we explained to you very clearly in numerus email the car belongs to our proprietor personally, so the transaction would not be though the business which you fully understood and agreed too, you offered to pay us £5000 deposit on a credit card, which due to high cost charged by the credit card company we no longer accept credit cards as payment, Furthermore, there was never any discussion as to whether or not it was refundable as the option was not available to you. You also expected us to wait nearly 2 weeks to complete the sale on a car that we had an huge amount of response too. You are approximately 550 miles from us which indicates to us that the vehicle was exceptional value and rare with the high level of spec and very low mileage, i honestly feel your review was written out of sore grapes because you could not get your own way with the transaction.However, I wish you well with your search for your ideal car & sincerely hope you get your own way throughout the transaction. kind regards.

Right car - Right price - all in all a painless experience -a couple of small issues with the car (blown fuses) but soon sorted. I found Louis very easy to do business with ( supply some biscuits) !! Would buy from this dealer again.

Fantastic service, found the car I was looking for on Auto trader, emailed late last night asking them to hold the car for me until this morning which they did. I will definitely use and recommend this company again

I have just purchased a car from Hothfield car sales and I am extremely happy with the friendly and hassle free service I received, the car was spotless exactly as described in the add, the guy was helpful where needed and he even dropped the car off to my home address I would definitely recommend this garage, if you are looking for a reliable and well looked after used vehicle to pay these guys a visit.

Extremely disappointed and unhappy, I drove 45 mins for a prebooked appointment to test drive a car but upon arrival was told a test drive wasn't allowed unless I was going to buy it! - my test drive was prebooked!!! ...how can anyone ever commit to buying a 2nd hand car without driving it first?! Absolutely crazy.

Reply from Hothfield Cars on 31/03/18

Sarah, In response to your recent review, WASTE OF TIME! i couldn't agree more...... After agreeing too come in early on Good Friday to meet you, ahead of other appointments we had that day. The decision was made not to offer you a test drive as i was finding it difficult too manage your expectations and demands (new wheels etc) on a vehicle that has covered 72000 miles, this resulted in a commercial decision being made by ourselves, that maybe it was best for both parties not to sell you a car. We try too treat our customers fairly, However sometimes no matter what this is just not achievable. We wish you luck in finding our perfect car.
