My experience with Trade Centre was excellent from start to finish

My experience with Trade Centre was excellent from start to finish. The staff were welcoming, professional, and knowledgeable, taking the time to answer all my questions without any pressure. The vehicle was well presented, the purchasing process was smooth and efficient, and everything was clearly explained. I appreciated the excellent customer service, transparency, and how easy they made the whole experience. I would happily recommend Trade Centre to friends and family

Tradecentre fail to comply with Consumer Rights Act 2015

Buyer BEWARE!!!!
Don't buy from here, the car I purchased developed a fault within 30 days of purchase, when we finally got through to them, we had to pay to recover the car to our home address, various calls made to a third party call centre, no call backs. I finally sent an e-mail saying I want a refund under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. 2 days later I received a call from a 3rd party recovery company wanting to collect the car. This was refused as we hadn’t had any response from the Trade Centre saying this was going to happen. Called again and was promised an urgent call back that day, they rang the wrong number and messaged me on the right number saying that I missed the call. Today I have forwarded my original e-mail to them again, which prompted a phone call to the wrong number again, but as its my wife's phone I took the call. They have now said that because they don’t have their own recovery truck, they will send my details to a third party recovery company to collect the car. Time scale unknown as to when its being collected, time scale unknown as to how long the car will be with Trade Centre, they will not supply a courtesy car to vehicles that are being inspected. I’m now left paying a loan with out a car, without any times scale to when it will be collected. It seems that the Reports of selling faulty cars that has been on the BBC News is very real! On a side note, the cars and the prices on the website don’t exist! If you ring and ask about any of them they just suggest you come to site and look. Another case of mis-selling that need investigating. I will update this review as things progress.

Another update: 10 days since the car was reported faulty and its still sitting on my drive with no date or time for collection. Anyone reading this please don't consider buying a car from this company!

Update 14/08/2026: The car has finally been collected, they have said that there is no fault with the car, (but have changed the battery) totally contradicting the photographic and video evidence that was supplied to them showing the fault. They have illegally refused to refund the cost of the car saying that under the Consumer Act 2015 that they are allowed to fix the problem, this is true after the 30 days but not during the 30 days. I have rejected their response and am waiting on them again. Further updates to come.

Update 15/08/2026: After talking to CAB and logging a complaint with them to get it escalated to Trading Standards, we have collected the car, they said that the warranty will be extended by another 28 days or 1000 miles. Again breaking the Consumer Act 2015. which is as follows:

Under the Consumer Rights Act, you have up to six years to bring a legal claim against a retailer for faulty goods. This is a limitation period for court claims, not a blanket 6-year guarantee; items must only last a reasonable length of time based on their price and quality.

Key Rules and Time frames

0 to 30 days: Right to reject a faulty item and get a full refund.
30 days to 6 months: Retailer gets one chance to repair or replace the item before you can claim a refund.
After 6 months: You must prove the fault was present when you bought the item, and the retailer may deduct money for use if they refund you.

Our car went faulty within the first 30 days, but Trade Centre flatly refused to do a refund.

Please don't buy a car from here.

What a con!!!

Was really excited to see so many cars on their website (uploaded recently) for £3999 and £4999. Drove all the way to Coventry to be told that they have all been sold! What a con!!! Nothing for under £8000. Very very disappointed- shouldn’t they be done for false advertising????
