Alvaston Cars Derby

Wish I'd have read the reviews before using this cowboy trader , but should have realized when they took mine in that had so many issues that it wasn't financially viable to repair it , but they sold it for 4 times the amount they bought it off me , despite them knowing the faults.Bought a car off them in feb , had to take it back 2 or 3 times, once because the exhaust brackets snapped while on holiday due to rust , which any real garage would have picked up during inspection, had to get a local garage to temporary fix them until we got back, took it back to alvaston motors to get it repaired under warranty and he actually said that the temporary repair job should last 2 to 3 year but I told him I'm not paying the amount of money I did for a bodge job .Now there is another issue which could mean the car being scrapped , again something that any PROPERLY trained mechanic would have picked up .I wouldn't be surprised if all of their stock had underlying issues covered over by their cronies across the road hence only giving 3 month warranty where most respectable traders give 12 month .If you use these you have been warned , do so at your own risk I'd avoid at all cost in future

After sales care second to none! I purchased my automatic Astra end of March 21. A gear change fault developed after a couple of weeks, and Andy lent me a car while he took my car to an automatic gear box specialist in Mansfield. A new ECU needed to be fitted, which Andy saw to, and had the gear box oil changed. My car now runs perfectly. Andy also topped up my fuel. This is the second car I have purchased from Alvaston cars, and I would not think of ever going elsewhere.

My advise to all would be to stay well clear of this car dealership. My daughter brought a small automatic car from him and all I could say was that this was never fit for purpose. Once she got the car home and it stood for two weeks the foot well filled with water. After close examination there was no lights to see in the auto gear shift, no door sensor switch, damp round the sunroof & 1 key. While driving the car back to him for refund, found the speedo stopped working too. Not impressed at all and he tried to convince me with his bull dealership talk that the car is sort after and a good price (Clio,03,auto,,, £1250) try some other mug not my daughter.

I would definitely recommend this business, but unfortunately, they didn't have the car I wanted.

Purchased a car from here today and we where very impressed with the service the car was ready and waiting for us when we arrived.Nice and clean inside could have done with a exterior having a quick clean. But not really a big deal what was good that they had put a tenners worth of fuel on as they new we had travelled a fair way to pick up the car.Over all a 10 out of 10 yo both the guys we delt with today.

Picked car up from these guys on Friday 17th march and was made aware of a issue the car had by Andy who told me about it booked car in to get it sorted and now the problem is sorted I can't thank Andy the owner or Ady the mechanic enough as they really did go above and beyond to sort it out very friendly and awesome customer service skills would highly recommend these guys to any one thinking of getting a car

Just passed my test and had seen a car with these guys so gave them a ring and was greeted by Andy who was very helpful over the phone and got the ball rolling straight away. Within a couple of days the car was ready for me to collect and the car was in excellent condition has described on their site and I was very impressed with the service. A +++.And thanks to Andy for reminding me to take the handbrake off whilst driving lol

poor service and would not touch them again with a barge pole. After sales useless. Car went back for accident damage and poor body paintwork after weeks of complaing.Not given service book told it was in glove box but it was not. Just be aware very pleasant but if anything goes wrong they don't want to know or care

A huge appreciation for checking my engine with his code reader and his advice.
