WARNING WARNING…read more For anyone thinking about buying a car from GLASGOW TRADE SALES I purchased a car from GLASGOW TRADE SALES on 14/2/18 with 3 months warranty! I have been trying to contact them since the 10/3/18 to report some problems I am experiencing. They hang up on me & don't return any calls when I leave messages. They also refuse to acknowledge or respond to emails. I now realise they have done this a lot to other customer's. After a bit of investigation on my part the warranty they claim to offer with "Warranty Wise" which you can clearly see advertised on all their current cars is a complete LIE. I have personally spoken to warranty wise and GLASGOW TRADE SALES are not an approved dealer of warranty wise and haven't been for 5/6 months now. They are liars and cheats please do not buy a car from them it's not worth the risk. Check out the reviews on Google and Auto Trader I wish I had before buying my car. All I can do now is warn others so they don't fall for the same lies I did. Please help me by sharing this with family and friends in the Glasgow area!

Glasgow Trade Sales. Absolute cowboys and thieves. Do not go near this place if you value your…read moremoney because they absolutely WILL rip you off. Recently bought a Kia Carens that turned out to have multiple issues. GTS do not answer calls or reply to emails or messages, I wonder why. I guess their 30 day warranty is worth about as much as their word. I have since had the car independently checked and the garage I use and trust are adamant the car should never have passed an not due to the brakes being defective among other issues. GTS never even bothered to fix the non existent handbrake despite falsely claiming too. Glasgow Trade sales will take your money then stick their fingers up at laughing you as you drive away. The matter is now in the hands of trading standards, VOSA and the police for the dodgy mot issued. Glasgow trade sales have f####d with the wrong guy this time. See you soon Dan!!!

wouldn't even give this place the one star the only reason I am is because u need to rate it…read more Bought a ford ranger a year ago and had nothing but problems with the car from going into limp mode spontaneously 3 weeks after buying it to the electrics being all over the place with having to turn my lights to off mode to have them on. Had to buy a new battery after 4 weeks due to the electrics running it down, had to get an inspector sent from finance company to check over the car who unfortunately did not find anything at that time even though everything was present. After a lot of money already spent and being told by this company that it's 'not their problem now' as I'd had it 4 weeks is just laughable. Now onto the 1st year Mot which cost £1500 needing glow plugs , new back box exhaust as the one on it had a massive hole in it even though I use it for domestic driving, not to mention the engine management and abs lights continually coming on. I have my local garage who has photos of underneath my car and diagnostics to back up it was a wreck before I touched it with wiring patched up appallingly, the whole underneath of this car and throughout the electrics were shot and this car had cost me in 1 year £10,000 with the £8000 car I traded in and the mot which I'm seeing nothing back for. worst of it is I still owe £10,000 for this heap of shit. DO NOT TOUCH THESE GUYS WITH A BARGEPOLE YOU WILL REGRET IT.

The last time i ever had any dealings with this place was when i sold my Bentley and bought that…read moretroublesome Rolls......aye right. Not the kind of place you'll find yourself in unless your in the "i happen to have shit loads of money so go beat yourself with a stick if you can find one on the street you low life son of a mangy goat, now leave before i release the trained wilder beasts" bracket of earnings. For those amongst us whose first car was the same age if not older than them, then this is the type of joint that you will probably never set foot into, unless we win the lottery. So then, the best thing about This place is the wander by it. If, like me, you appreciate a nice motor and quite like a wee gawk at some nice old examples, then this is a good place and a great location for those who frequent the pubs in this area of town. Is there anything better (sadder) than having a few drinks, heading home with chips and cheese and standing (swaying) in front of a car show room for 10 minutes?? There is? oh. Anyway, got cash? fancy a nice old flashy car? Try this place out, just be careful not to knock the chips and cheese out of my hands as you drive away!!

This is the accident and repair centre for arnold clark and Unfortunetly i have had to use them 3…read moretimes. All for accidents that have not been my fault may i add!! They operate a system called accist where basically they take over the dealing with insurance companies, arrange quotations and then the repair of the vehicle. As part of this system you are entitled to a courtesy car. The whole procedure from start to finish was smooth and easy to deal with. Takes away the stress of trying to sort things yourself. Once you have a repair date you drop your car off here and a driver takes you to the allison street showroom where you collect your hire car. On return you simply drop your car back here. Having an accident is such a horrible experience but these guys really help make it as stress free as possible.

I am anxious to contact Thornton Cars having found the advertised telephone number is no longer in…read moreuse. I bought a Mazda 323F Sport from Thornton Cars last year which was missing the rear head restraints. I was advised that these would be supplied but have never recieved them. Further, the car had a rattle at the rear and i was advised that it was just an exhaust bracket. It turned out to be badly worn drop links for the rear anti roll bar. That should have been spotted at the MOT before the car was sold. Also missed at the MOT was corrosion around the offside front shock absorber mounting. This corrosion was visible from inside the engine compartment but when i showed concern about it at the show room, i was told by the salesman, 'it was ok because it was not structural'. Who told him that? Apart from missing head restraints, the car was sold without a toolkit, wheel brace and a missing jack handle.

Atrocious. They're all about selling you the vehicle (and, in fairness, due to their size they are…read moreoften unbeatable on price), but the after sales "care" varies between abysmal and non-existent. I had two pieces of warranty work done on my car. The first was a door hinge issue that was a known fault and a "quick fix", but it meant that the passenger side door didn't sit flush with the vehicle. About a month after they'd fixed it, the fault re-appeared and exists to this day. Another warranty repair - replacement of steering wheel and gear knob - took over three months to get sorted and involved the direct involvement of Renault themselves. When they finally booked me in, they tried to charge me for a hire car, claiming I could just get the money back from Renault - who had contacted the garage on my behalf to get everything sorted and told them that I was not to be charged. Renault then advised me in future that there was another non-Arnold Clark dealership elsewhere and that I would probably be better off using them. We've had similar - and actually worse - experiences through four other AC dealerships and just don't use them for anything more than browsing the vehicles, getting brochures and perhaps test driving... before going elsewhere if we decide we like the model.

Great at taking money but wow, the customer service is like something from a hidden camera show…read more After paying over £250 for a standard service, I was advised not once but twice that the car would be ready for collection only to be forced to turn up in hope and find that it wasn't. Forget that i have a wife in hospital and 2 young kids to get to school, that's not the staffs problem, their approach though was one of despondency and a total lack of professionalism which left me feeling a bit cold. I usually avoid negative reviews but for everyone's sake, be wary of this place. There are much better, Ford approved, independent garage options out there. Unless of course you're into non-returned phone calls, false promises and major inconvenience.

After deciding to upgrade to a newer model of car I came across Evans Halshaw on Cumbernauld road…read more Their prices looked quite good and the staff were very friendly and put me at ease. After deciding on a car costing £11,000 I was thrilled. This was until I had signed for the car and noticed a few problems,after calling the sales person up I was assured these small problems would be sorted promptly,this is where my problems really started! I had no contact from anyone from the company,I called them numerous times and each time I was told "The person is busy,they will call you straight back." None of these phone calls ever materialised. I spoke to both sales people and management at the branch and had no luck. In the end I paid for the problems to be fixed myself. This company will bend over backwards for you until you sign for the car then their customer service skills equal 0/10. Their sales team/staff are the most unhelpful and non customer care orientated I have ever come across. My advice is to avoid them at all costs,there are much better independent garages out their who have customer care levels 100 times better than this place!

Car dealers always seem to suffer from the "Arthur Daley" syndrome so it was with some trepidation…read morethat I chose to go down that road (if you excuse the pun) when looking for another car. After meeting several dealers who added to my used car dealer's paranoia, I finally decided to give it one more go with Stephen Hannah Cars. Right from the initial phone call to inquire about a car through to the final sale I could not be more impressed with the professional and trustworthy service I received. My contact, John Miller, was honest throughout the engagement and sought to give me the best deal and car for my budget. In the end I drove away with car that exceeded my expectations. I could not recommend these guys enough. Just tell them Bob sent you....

It was quite busy when I was there - but I didn't see any of the salesmen being heavy handed or using pressurised sales techniques.
