scoob155 Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 has anyone had any dealings with keighley trade centre in west yorkshire they have some lovely looking cars but wanted any feedback before going down for a look. Link to comment
karl_dowie Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Hi, i came down from orkney to look at a car which they were going to hold for me when i got there they had sold it, i wasnt very happy to say the least!!!!!!!! I had a look at the rest of the cars seeing i had went all that distance and thot they looked good in the pictures but up close they there very rough for the money they were asking for them, but thats just my opinion. karl Link to comment
darryl_martin Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Try doing a search on here. Sure I've heard the name come up before. Link to comment
RS Grant Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 If you want a wider reaction, try doing a search on Scoobynet for them.. In fact, I think that if you Google their name you'll see lots of reviews of their 'quality cars' and customer 'service' they provide. Steer WELL clear mate. Cheers, Grant Link to comment
oobster Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Yup - quite a few horror stories over on ScabbyNut. Link to comment
BriWRX Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 I travelled down also to look at a car and i confirmed prices also before getting there, when i got there the car was not as it was described as it had been covered in paint stripper at the rear of the car and the patch up job was poor and they wanted more money than agreed. A lot of the cars seem have a lot of obvious repairs or broken parts from transportation. But dont just take my word, i am just putting in my tuppence worth. Link to comment
micra_wrc Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 oops, edited - i'm talking about Torque of Keighley here [:$] Squirrel and I also popped into their place when we were travelling across England and Wales looking for my scooby. Lots of high performance, modified import cars of various marques, but it was clear they havent been mechanically checked or even washed/valeted since they came off the boat (some of the cars they had were really rough). The chaps were friendly enough, gave us directions to their place and were happy to let us have a nosey in and around the car, showing us the import documentation/auction sheets etc but it was clear that they were looking for a quick turnaround in sales. TBH, they did do all the SVA stuff and offered a portable warranty that could get transferred to somewhere local to you if things went wrong but I got the feeling that repeat customer service wasnt a high priority.

ScoobyAndy Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 I contacted them about a car the other week and was most unimpressed by the chap i spoke to. Most unwilling and uncoperative person ive ever spoken to. Whan i asked him about the car he seemed to know nothing and wasnt willing to find anything about it. All he had to say was check the website as its on there [:@] Needless to say i promptly put the phone down and declared theyre getting no trade from me. Happy hunting m8 but steer clear of them.

road warrior Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Avoid them like the plague My mate who used to have a body shop down in Bradford could tell you a few stories about them.... All theyre really interested in is folk to buy their cars on finance The cars are generally pretty rough You'll find a lot better else where Link to comment

paul_honthy Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Bought my motor from there.To be honest from what Ive heard from others ive been lucky with my motor. However the aftersales was shocking and the warranty that i took an extended 6 months on wasn't worth the paper it was written on (I had to use trading standards to get the warranty cover increased to an acceptable level.) These are my personal opinions from my experience with K-T-C. PM if you want anymore info on them mate. Scotty Link to comment
