Waste of time

I arranged a viewing of a vehicle in Bradford, When I got there the vehicle had damage that was not highlighted in the images prior to viewing it, The manager said it is strictly sold as seen, before i made my mind up to take the vehicle or not I asked the salesman to confirm they would honour the value I was offered online , he said no we never offer the price you get online as it is AI. without even looking at my car he said it would probably be about £1500 less than i had been quoted, safe to say I walked away and bought somewhere else. I would say don't bother using Carsa if you want to trade your current vehicle in

Dear Dean,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for considering Carsa Bradford. We’re sorry to hear that your visit left you disappointed, particularly regarding the condition of the vehicle and the part-exchange valuation.

We appreciate how frustrating it must have been to travel to view a vehicle and then feel that the information provided about your part exchange did not meet your expectations.

We will look into the concerns you have raised internally, including the vehicle presentation and how the part-exchange valuation was communicated.

Thank you again for considering Carsa and for bringing this to our attention.

Best Regards,
The Carsa Team

I came to view a vehicle and ended up leaving with one. The service provided by both Kealan and Karan was phenomenal, I was able to make my own choice without any interference and nothing was too much trouble. Their customer service skills were excellent.

Excellent experience!

I came into Carsa knowing what I wanted, just needed to check the car itself. The man who greeted me was so helpful. He was called Josh Hotson. From the moment he greeted me, everything was extremely smooth; he had me up and running for a test drive quickly and once I was happy with the car, he helped me complete the purchase quickly. He was able to answer my long list of questions well and when he didn’t know an answer, he would find out; which I appreciated. It was very busy and he was dealing with other customers but I appreciated the communication so I knew what was happening and when. He went above and beyond to help me get my dream car. Thank you!

Back street garage

So if it be zero stars that would be good. Have a look at my three previous reviews. Every review carsa give an AI response how sorry they are and they ask for further details so they can respond to me. Three times I’ve given the same info and not one phone call.
Charlie has responded to my son once but since then nothing, no phone calls and no emails! Don’t be like Charlie

Dear Roger,

Thank you for taking the time to share a further update regarding your son’s experience with Carsa. We’re sorry to hear that he has continued to experience difficulties obtaining updates and that, despite the information already being provided, you feel there has been no meaningful follow-up.

We appreciate how frustrating this must be for your son, particularly given the ongoing nature of the situation and your previous attempts to raise it.

We will look into your son’s case internally, including the communication and follow-up to date.

Thank you again for sharing your son’s experience and for continuing to bring the matter to our attention. We’re sorry that his experience has not been what he should have expected from Carsa.

Excellent service at Carsa branch in Southampton

When I wanted to buy my Lexus from Southampton, I was assisted by Dominic . His service was very professional and kind. I felt safe , well informed and most importantly listened to. Carsa in Southampton must be very proud to have a dedicated team member like him. Thank you for your time and assistance. Highly recommended 👌
