I bought a 2018 skoda superb sportline…
.... I see from another review Ben the same salesman who sold me my bloomin albatross.... Should we be looking into recovery of our funds from him as it was on his watch the cars were sold?? I bought a 2018 skoda superb sportline Estate from these glypes and made the mistake of paying for it upfront.... I picked up the car on a Friday drove back to belfast, I'd to use the wipers it was December I would have been better with two pencils as wipers but I made it..... Saturday I'm taking out the car to get used to it... So being a new car to me I checked the oil.... Only there was none at least only enough to keep the light off for it wasn't showing on the stick... Cm cars were shut or not answering... Right off the bat I was down £85.00 for oil and wiper blades... I got through on the Monday to Benjamin the tall ging after a back and forth he agreed to pay £75 quid I accepted it to get him off the phone rather than listen to his lying.... They had originally give me a 90 warranty, so rather than phoning evry time I discovered a fault I waited till I had 30 days left.... I took the car to a registered VAG authorised technician here in Belfast Walshs Motors a reputable company..... I had them go over the car and highlight anything major issues with the car... Eugene the owner and certified technician told me that the car needed shocks and springs, a new starter button, and tyres all round and I should return it to the dealership... When I contacted CM about his findings they arranged to check out my issues.. So I bring it up Bengy talks all kinds of keek about how the things wrong weren't covered by their warranty, steam is building up now.... I'm at the time in my late 60s and sitting there listening to the spheres he is talking..he took the car round back to the service station and I'd to wait in the office.... At the same time I was there, the tall alien with ginger hair Ben was dealing with another sale a lady and her husband were trading a 2016 white audi a4 against a big hyundai 7 seater.... I noticed when I arrived it was sitting running, the guy asked Benjamin what was the best price he could do for them on the new car I can't remember the total cost but it was the low 5 figures ending with £75 and big Ben says the best he could do was knock the £75 quid off and that's how they keep the prices down.my ears pricked up for that's the same answer to the same question I asked him when I was buying, I checked their website there and then every car on sale was priced with seventy five quid being the end of the prices shown, that showed me something about they're sales practices... When his mechanic had gone over the car and came back, Ben agreed to repair a bushing causing the exhaust to bang on the floor under cabin and the starter switch and not being off the shelf parts would need ordering, fair enough he said he would ring me when the stuff is there 2/3 weeks pass and I call them, I was calling to say I couldn't make the arranged time the next day, good says the long legged one as one of the parts hadn't arrived, I cracked up on the phone.. We were talking about parts for a skoda superb one of the most popular cars at the time and it was the 21st century you could get stuff from China quicker than his supplier.. I hung up for fear of not getting the parts when or if he had ordered.. April came I'd had the car just about four months I was driving along the M3 motorway and the dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree.. And the temperature was past the top mark with steam coming out of the bonnet grill, luckily I was close to an off exit close to Duncrue Street and was able get off the M3 safely.. What happened was the water pump had failed, after the engine cooled I nursed the car home going through the town and side roads home which led to Walsh Motors and another diagnosis.... The water pump and timing belt had to be replaced, all in that cost me £380.00 back on the phone and got hit with it was out of warranty I went nuts on the phone.... But the other shock was the car had had the DPF removed a possible £5000 fine for a dealer to sell any vehicle which has been done and a £1000 for a civilian driver knowingly driving one..
They denied it denied paying for any work... I had enough and have taken them to court however due to the barristers strike for legal aid four years on and I still have no redress
I'm not letting it go. I need to know who was the owner of the company before they went belly up.. I would be grateful if anyone could help with the names.. Cheers Gerard................ it was bought in 2022
