And to be quite frank iv looked at over 60 trucks in the last month and half- everything has been garbage. This one seemed to be best mechanically that we had seen. The body had quit a bit of damage, interior they did and excellent job cleaning. I bought this truck and didn't even make it home. Had to call for a tow truck, the radiator had a crack in it, had to pay for the tow, mechanic and the radiator alone was $400. The cab of truck is also leaking there is water marks all over the headliner, wouldn't crank yesterday had it towed back to the mechanics and the truck needs head gaskets and batteries. I haven't even made my first payment on this truck. Very disappointed! I would never recommend this place.

We were in search of an affordable and reliable car for our son who is in college. After weeks and…read moreweeks of combing the internet and visiting most of the used car lots in the Tampa Bay Area we came across the Auto Store of Tampa Bay II and we are so grateful we found it. The Auto Store of Tampa Bay is a small family owned and operated lot which is easy to miss amongst the many used car lots, congested and fast pace road it is located on. However, what attracted us to it was the noticeable cleanliness of all the vehicles on the lot. Every vehicle was detailed and display with so much pride we had go inside. After browsing the impressive lot out front we decided to go inside where we were greeted by Mike W. who was not overly pushy and very upfront about all the cars on the lot. He took the time to learn what our priorities were and answered all of our questions which were a lot. Lol We test drove the vehicle we were set to buy and notice the AC wasn't blowing as strong as it could have (keep in mind this was a 12 yr old car); Mike offered to take it to his mechanic for a check and recharge at no additional cost and even included that as a guarantee in the bill of sales. We planned to register the car in another state which became more complicated than we anticipated and Mike went above and beyond (2 weeks AFTER we purchased the car) to help us navigate the different registration and tax requirements; even helping us making calls to the Florida and out of state DMV's and getting some required forms notarized for us at no additional cost to us. Again this is a couple weeks after we purchased the car from them. Our overall experience with the Auto Store of Tampa was a great one! We were able to purchase an affordable, good looking, AND RELIABLE vehicle for our son. We will definitely be back for any future used car buying needs and HIGHLY recommended them to anyone who is hesitant about used car lots. Pros: Affordable Prices Professionally Detailed Vehicles Outstanding Customer Service Bilingual (English and Spanish) Honest about their inventory Easy to Work with and Negotiate Deal Available even after the sale is complete Good mix of newer and older cars all very clean Cons: Not the best location to get in and out of Parking is hit or miss Not the largest inventory in the area

I strongly recommend staying away from Hillsborough Auto Sales. I bought a 2014 Chevrolet Cruze…read morefrom them for my younger sister after we specifically asked whether the vehicle had any issues and were told that it did not. Within only two days, the vehicle began idling roughly, the check engine light came on, and my sister noticed a strong oil smell and oil leaking around the engine. We gave the dealership an opportunity to fix the vehicle. They claimed the problem was the fuel injectors, said they repaired them, and returned the vehicle to my sister, telling her it was "good to go." That same day, smoke began coming from under the hood. The following day, heavy smoke entered the vehicle through the air-conditioning system while my sister and her newborn daughter were inside. This was dangerous and completely unacceptable. I had Midas perform a diagnostic inspection, and they found oil leaking from several locations, including the valve cover, timing cover, oil pan, rear main seal, and oil cooler housing. Their technician specifically documented that these were "not fresh oil leaks" and that the vehicle had been leaking for quite some time. Despite this, the dealership refused to take responsibility, provide a refund, or cover the necessary repairs. I am including photos of the oil leaks because people deserve to see the condition of the vehicle we were sold. Returning the vehicle after an unsuccessful repair and saying it was safe to drive put my sister and newborn niece in a dangerous situation. Based on our experience, I would never purchase another vehicle from Hillsborough Auto Sales, and I would not recommend them to anyone.

They spoke Spanish to the finance company of which I didn't understand and the price of the car went up by at least $3,000.00 without my knowing it when I got the bill of sales 2 weeks later from the finance company. I was there from 10:00 am until closing (sick and just wanted to go home). Salesman went home before I did because he took someone else to sell a car to and I had to find someone else to help me. They took advantage of an elderly woman who was alone. Shame on them.

I was in the market for a pre-owned vehicle and my wife suggested Cars Unlimited on Fletcher Ave in…read moreTampa, FL. I reviewed the information on carsunlimited.com and honestly thought it was too good to be true. I am happy to say the entire experience exceeded my expectations. The quality of the vehicle, the ease of buying, and the level of service throughout the process and afterward were above and beyond. Allen, Jamie, and Justin are exceptional. As time has passed, a couple of typical things have come up with the vehicle, and the support I've received has been outstanding. In a world where getting straightforward, honest information is rare, Cars Unlimited has been a dependable foundation I can trust. Their commitment doesn't end at the sale -- and that ongoing support has been truly invaluable. Choosing them remains one of the best decisions I've made.

I wished I still had the pickup today, but things happen for a reason. I do look back on his website from time to time to see if he has anything else interesting to buy. If he does, I'll contact him and we will drive there again to buy from him again. Thanks again.

We were very happy with the overall inventory which turns over quickly so there are always new cars to consider daily. They check every car and I felt that they will be great partners in teh future if this vehicle needs any service or work. Had a great experience and drove away with a really nice Lexus ES300! Thanks Todd, Mike and the rest of the team. We'll always refer people looking for a good deal on clean and well-serviuced vehicles!!

They double checked the car so that she could feel confident getting in it and starting a 1535 mile journey to Vermont. I can't say enough good about the car and about the purchase experience! Love the vehicle and we'll be back.

They have legitimate auto tag, title & registration services. You bring all your documentation, sign any necessary title and/or registration paperwork & leave it there. It is usually ready the same day, but most definitely by the next day depending on what time you drop off your docs. Beats waiting at the dmv. They process all types of vehicles, boats, cars, mobile home, title transfers, tag & registrations & renewal. I work with the owner of a mobile home park and we use them for all of the mobile home title transfers & renewals. Don't be intimidated by the location or the chaotic office. They have detailers & auto techs, etc walking in and out. Sometimes it looks like they are just hanging out about to play cards, but they are just getting AC or taking a break. They are straight up good people and will take care of your auto tag needs.

On top of that, the lot looked more like a junkyard than a dealership, which didn't give me much confidence. It made me feel like I might end up buying a lemon. In the end, I'm actually glad it happened because I went to BMW of Tampa instead and purchased a 2026 BMW X3. The experience there was amazing.

I brought my C300 in for service, upon picking the vehicle up I noticed the right, front passenger side wheel and tire was not in the same condition as when I dropped it off. After several attempts to have the wheel and tire repaired due to their negligence during the after service test drive (that we didn't opt for or was told it would be driven), unfortunately Trevor refused to make this right. Additionally, I asked to see the before pictures and video that was mentioned on the phone, but was told there wasn't any. Any time a car goes in for service, a detailed report is completed by the technician, but I was told they do not do this. That's a bit concerning to me. Needless to say, be careful getting your car serviced here.
