To start with, I had to assure them I was serious about buying a van before they could be bothered to get one out of the yard for a test
drive. I noticed it had next to no fuel for the test drive, so we pottered about on back roads which was fine at the time. After
purchasing the van and driving at motorway speeds it had a serious vibration problem. Taking the van in for the vibration issue, it turns
out the front tyres weren't legal, and the screen wash pump didn't work - both MOT failures which is funny as Atlantic had the van MOT'd
prior to me picking it up.
so, two tyres and a screen wash pump later and then we could look at the vibration issue. Its taken discs and pads all round, and now a
front brake caliper to resolve, in total I've spent £600 rectifying these issues.
If you have no choice but to use this lot, do your due diligence - check everything and do a thorough road test!
Oh and after specifically asking if the van is watertight and being told it was, it really isn't.
They deserve no stars, but sadly I had to pick one to post this review..
I took a massive risk buying this as I had to travel up from Cornwall where I live to Norwich. As I seen it was a reputable company I was not wrong. Thanks guys I will be back.
