Having spotted a Mini Countryman they had for sale I rang up to arrange a viewing Thursday lunchtime. I was told by Rob the car was just in and needed to be checked in their workshop before it could be shown to buyers. It was due in the workshop Friday and we could potentially look Saturday. Having not heard from Rob I called him Saturday morning. They were very busy, it hadn't been looked at and he would call me as soon as it could be viewed early next week.
I spent Saturday morning cleaning up our trade in and sorting the paperwork. We were keen to do a deal on the Mini.
I get an email from Rob Saturday afternoon stating the car was now sold. How could this be if I were the first to enquire and it wasn't available for sale till it had been checked? Nor were asked about placing a deposit, something we would have happily done?
Rob claims another party spoke to a colleague and they took a holding deposit on the vehicle. Something he admitted they don't normally do.
So the bottom line is absolute time wasters and a very poor way to do business.
Update- contacted them as they requested, no response at all!
