SCAM

I had a terrible experience with this business. They tried to sell me a dodgy car and only refunded me after I had to go through the small claims court process.

Avoid this place—it’s not worth the time, money, or stress.

Looking back, there were red flags from the very start. On the day I purchased the car, staff were rushing me and pressuring me to hurry up, saying they needed to go and break their fast—even though it was only around 3pm, which didn’t make sense.

The whole situation felt unprofessional and uncomfortable, and I regret not walking away at that point. Instead, I went ahead with the purchase and ended up dealing with ongoing issues, including being misled and having to fight just to get my money back.

For an entire month, I was repeatedly lied to by staff. Every day I called about my refund, I was given false information or excuses. At one point, I was even told—right before Eid—that they couldn’t refund me because they “had no money,” which is completely unacceptable.

The whole situation caused me a huge amount of stress. To make matters worse, I paid by bank transfer, and my bank couldn’t assist, so I strongly recommend always using card payments for protection.

After my experience, I’m not surprised to see similar complaints in other reviews. I genuinely don’t understand how this business maintains positive ratings.

This business needs to be investigated further!

THIS COMPANY SELL DAMAGED VEHICLES AND DOES NOT RETURN YOUR MONEY, "DO NOT BUY"

Firstly, if I could have given no stars, I would have, so do not be flattered buy one star, as I had no choice.

I bought a Mercedes CLA from this Cowbot outfit, I made the mistaske of not going to see and test the car, It was almost £12000, I completed the transaction with a credit agreement with a deposit of £1148 plust a delivery charge of £140 Total from me was £1288.
The car arrived on the back of a trailer, it was filthy, full of scratches and dents, which were not visible from the images on their website, someone had been using it to run around in, there was a womans passport photo in there and varuious bits of paperwork, a high vis and builders gloves in the boot, the car had not been cleaned at all, both keys had masking tape holding ther battery's in, with no covers on either key.
I rang them the next day, and the credit company to get the car pickedf up and returned to them, with lots of lies and excuses, they failed to pick the vehicle up for approxcimately 1 month, so I had a car that was still on my drive, aftert this outfit said they would pickmit up, and did not, the credit company also kept ringing and e-mailing them, they asked for my bank account details 3 times, and never returned my money, they have had the car back for for 2 weeks, and still they owe me the money,they never stopped advertising it for sale, and still are, so if they sell this car and do not return the finance company back, and my deposit, that is a criminal offence, of theft and fraud, as technically and Legally, they do not own it, I will be taking Legasl action against them, and paying them a visit with some very Large gentlemen as a previous rugby player, they picked on the wrong fella, we do not Like thieves, this is my hard earand money and will be paid back, the Finance company have stopped calling me with any updates, they were supposed to protect my deposit and said so themselves, so we are not done with them yet, the FCA will be told of their activities, the AA guide that they are reccommende by, will be informed of this fraudulent action, and the conditionof the car, plus the car guide they subscribed to, saying they will adhere to their fair dealing polcies.
I am going to set about destroying this outfits reputation, if they have one, I will dig into their finances and Legitimacy of them, and any trading illegalities, or irregularities, they made a big mistake if they think thast this is the end of the matter, they have stolen a lot of money from me, and it will be returned, one way or another.

"A MESSAGE FOR ANYONE THINKING OF BUYING A CAR, SEEN OR UNSEEN FROM THIS LOT, THINK MORE THASN TWICE BEFORE HANDING OVER YOUR CASH TO THEM, YOU WILL BE MAKING A BIG MISTAKE, BE WARNED!"

Clarifying the Outcome and Our Refund Process

Stephen, we believe it is important to clarify the full facts for anyone reading this review.

Firstly, your statement that funds were not returned is incorrect. Your refund has already been completed, and the matter was resolved. This review does not reflect the final outcome of the situation.

We understand that the process may have felt lengthy, however when a vehicle is purchased through a finance agreement, the refund process is not instant and does not sit solely with us. It involves coordination between multiple parties including the dealership, the finance company, and final settlement figures from the lender. These steps must be completed correctly before any funds are released.

In most cases, refunds are processed within a standard timeframe, typically around 14 days, depending on how quickly all parties complete their part of the process. This is a structured procedure followed across the motor trade and is not unique to us.

We would also like to make it clear that we never hold customers’ money intentionally. There is no benefit to us in delaying refunds. Our aim is always to complete transactions correctly and ensure customers receive their funds through the proper channels.

It is disappointing to see such strong statements remain publicly after the matter has already been resolved. Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for reviews to remain even after customers have received their refunds and final outcome.

We always aim to provide a fair service and, where issues arise, to bring them to a conclusion. In this case, the refund was completed, and the matter was closed.

We wish you all the best moving forward and appreciate the opportunity to clarify this for future readers.

Do not go near this dealer with a long barge pole!!!!

Do not go near this dealer with a long barge pole!!

They agreed in principle to buy my car from me for £9009. Then said that they couldn't come pick up the car for over a month which instantly raised some alarm bells but I continued nontheless.

When the day of collection finally come around, their driver completed a full inspection of my car (taking around 30-40 minutes) taking multiple pictures and even going on a short test drive.

After this was done, he relayed back to the dealership that my vehicle was in great condition, has been very well looked after and is a "Grade 1" car.

With that being said, one would think everything was ok? Oh but how was I wrong. The dealer then rang me and claimed the car would need a service (depsite recently having one) and that because there was a couple of small stonechips on the front grill they thought that £8400 was an acceptable offer.

At which point I outright refused, despite the car recently having a service the dealer still thought that a £600 deduction was necessary so I told them to get lost and said that I would not sell the car at that price.

I thought that would be that and I would just sell the car myself privately on autotrader, but to my surprise when I entered the details of my car onto auto trader, I saw that the car traders had already taken the liberty of advertising my vehicle on multiple platforms such as auto trader, car gurus and even their own website for £10700! The cheek!

To make matters worse, all of the adverts use my original pictures which I reserve the copyright for and as well as this, the advert diplays my private number plate which means it is now liable to being cloned.

Just to top things off, I anonymously phoned the dealership from the advert on their website to see how they would handle an enquiry on a car they don't own or have a right to sell. To my shock they offered me to reserve it with a deposit and an appointment to come and see it over the weekend!

My advice to anyone looking at buying or selling a car would be to stay away from this dealership at all costs. After reading some more of their reviews, it doesn't look like I am the only one who has had a terrible experience with this company.

Oliver, thank you for sharing your feedback. We would like to clarify a few points so that readers understand how the process works from our side.

When vehicles are purchased through Motorway or similar auction platforms, bids are placed based on the information provided at the listing stage. Once a vehicle is inspected in person, our inspector reports back to the office with findings regarding condition, preparation requirements, and any items that may need attention before the car can be offered for retail sale. Even well-maintained vehicles can require preparation work such as servicing checks, cosmetic correction, warranty provision, transport costs, advertising fees, and other operational expenses before being offered to buyers.

If differences between the description and the physical inspection are noted, the valuation may be reviewed accordingly. Sellers are never obligated to proceed with a revised valuation and are completely free to decline the offer, which is what happened in this case.

With regard to the advertising point you raised, vehicles that pass through auction systems are sometimes entered into stock management pipelines as potential incoming vehicles. This is a common practice across the motor trade and does not mean a transaction has been completed or that a vehicle is being misrepresented.

Our intention is always to source the best possible vehicles for our customers, which is why our inspection process is detailed and sometimes leads to revised valuations. We would rather reassess a vehicle than compromise on the quality and safety standards we aim to provide to buyers.

We have been trading for over 11 years and have completed more than 18,000 vehicle transactions. Our processes are structured and transparent, and sellers always retain full control over whether to proceed with a sale.

We appreciate your feedback and wish you the best with the sale of your vehicle.

I recently took delivery of my new car from NT Traders and the entire experience was outstanding from start to finish. The staff was extremely professional, courteous, and transparent throughout the process.

The delivery was well-organized and right on time. The vehicle was handed over in perfect condition — spotless, fully inspected, and beautifully presented. The sales executive patiently explained all the features, paperwork, and warranty details, ensuring I was completely comfortable before driving off.

What truly impressed me was their attention to detail and customer care. They made the entire process smooth, stress-free, and memorable. I highly recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a trustworthy and premium car-buying experience.

HIGH ⚠️!!!!

HIGH ⚠️!!!!. I bought a car in January 2026. Firstly delivery was not on time as promised. When I received the car, it had scratches which were promised to fix including a fresh service on vehicle. I didn't complain about scratches but asked for the service. They said, you do it we will pay the cost. I paid £159 but they said they will pay £80 but they didn't pay a single penny. There are different people who will communicate with you and everyone will tell a different story at different timings so you wont be able to have a clear picture that whats going on with you. If u want to buy a car from this dealer, be aware of false promises, miscommiments and poor communications.

After your reply, please pay me what you owe and I will edit my review or if its just a formality to respond to a negative review politely then let it be this way.

Enforced statutory rejection after months and court action

I purchased a Citroen C3 Picasso (EF13 ZVS) from NT Traders Ltd on 30 September 2025. The vehicle was sold without a warranty, but buyers should understand that this does not remove statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.

Within days, serious faults became apparent, including an oil leak at the head gasket, a completely non-functioning heating system, and other associated issues.

On 2 October 2025, I notified the dealership of the defects and raised the possibility of exercising my short-term right to reject. After no forthcoming reply, formal written rejection was issued via WhatsApp and email in November 2025.

The vehicle was later inspected and the faults were confirmed. During the process I was asked to sign additional internal paperwork beyond what had been agreed in writing, which I declined.

The matter then extended over several months. I continued to incur road tax and insurance costs while the vehicle was effectively unusable.

A mileage deduction of £0.60 per mile was proposed and described as an “industry standard”. I did not accept that position. Progress was only made after I issued formal court proceedings via Money Claim Online.

Following legal action and further exchanges, the dealership agreed to refund the full purchase price, reimburse the £115 court issue fee, and withdraw the proposed mileage deduction. The vehicle was returned on 11 February 2026 and the full sum was paid by electronic transfer on the day of handover.

The matter was resolved in full, but only after persistent correspondence and formal legal escalation.

Prospective buyers should ensure they understand their statutory rights and be prepared to assert them if necessary.

Thank you for your feedback.

When the vehicle was sold on 30 September 2025, it was priced under £2,000 and clearly supplied without a warranty. As explained at the time, lower value part-exchange vehicles are often sold at trade price to keep them affordable. That said, a warranty and statutory rights are separate matters, and we have always acknowledged our legal obligations.

Once you raised concerns, we engaged with you throughout the process. Although there were differences of opinion regarding the timing of rejection, mileage use, and proposed deductions, we ultimately agreed to refund the full purchase price, reimburse your £115 court fee, and remove any mileage deduction, in line with your request. Payment was made in full by bank transfer on the day the vehicle was returned.

Our intention in resolving the matter was to bring it to a fair and final conclusion without prolonging the dispute further. Court proceedings allow both parties to present their position, but we chose to settle the matter and refund you in full rather than continue with legal action.

We are disappointed that, despite reaching a full financial resolution on your terms, you feel unable to reflect that outcome more positively. Nevertheless, we respect your right to share your experience.

We wish you all the best going forward.
