Customer reviews of M. & A. Cars (Leeds) Limited

Fabulous service, we travelled 2 hours to view a car that we saw online, test drove and loved the car. we had 3 months complimentary warranty. Unfortunately the car we bought encountered a problem that our local garage was unable to diagnose. we contacted the garage on a Friday afternoon,Marcus immediately offered to repair or refund. As we are 85 miles away we opted for a refund, Marcus arranged collection of the car and a full BACS refund was made the next working day (Monday) whilst the driver was present. Service was fantastic and no questions asked. Would highly recommend and would definitely use again if we lived closer! Thank you again.

Just bought a car from this garage! Can't fault these guys! Happy to help, no pressure in selling and they will give you genuine advise even if its not in their favour. Was first looking at golf at 4k but they have advised me to check the insurance cost first and they were right, I couldn't afford it. So I ended up buying a cheaper car at just under 3k. They could have sold the golf to me just to make money, but didn't. Much appreciated! Thank you! Will definitely be back!

Very disappointed i phoned M&A cars (Leeds) about the purchase of a Peugeot 208 twice i asked the condition of a vehicle and explained that i was 2.5 hour drive away , both times i was told the car was "very clean" both times i specifically asked if the car had any scratched or dents before i made the journey, both times i was told no. When i arrived the there was a large graze on the back corner, the bumper was a different shade to the rest of the car and there was a poor repair on the other side of the bumper along with a small dent on the quarter panel and smaller scratches below. This was not a clean car clean car, the lies i was told cost me a 5 hour drive . Be very wary of what you are told and think twice before you travel any distance . I was offered £100 off the price of the car because of the the damage and was assured that there was somebody around the corner that would repair and spray the bumper for this , which i find very hard to believe.

I had put a deposit on a 2010 Honda Jazz but was told the day before pickup that the transmission was faulty and no longer functional. The dealer considered that replacing the transmission would be too expensive and decided to refund the deposit instead. I was quite disappointed that a car needing such extensive repair was put up for sale in the first place.

Hi, thanks for your review, i am very sorry you are disappointed but it is beyond our control. You deposited the car in the first week of January to pick up in February. We inspected the car prior to placing it on sale, you also view the car twice and test drove, further more you had a full independent mechanical inspection which was all good. When we went to the car a few days prior to collection to get serviced and cleaned the semi auto gearbox would not select first gear. We took to a very good auto gearbox specialist who said he could reset the gearbox to make it work but couldn't say how long it would take. Deeming this not an acceptable repair as this could easily have gone on the customer. After costing a full reconditioned gearbox (in excess of £1500) we took the steps to cancel the deal and sell the car for parts. When this car was up for sale we had no knowledge of this and as with any mechanical things can go wrong. We are very sorry but tried to offer alternative.

Went to view a couple of cars prior to christmas with the intention on buying two a family one and a runaround. Stated closed at 5 and arrived at half 3 when they looked like they were closing up. Were rude and uninterested, gave the keys then went back into portacabin annoyed when forced to return as first car we wanted to view needed jump starting. Had a funny noise coming from engine, just shrugged when I told them. We felt like an inconvenience so handed the keys back and said thanks and received no response. They had locked up and got in their cars before we had even left the premises. If you don't want to be open at that time change your opening times or if you're going to have that attitude don't open at all! Lost out in around £3-4k of sales!

Thank you for your feedback and very sorry for your experience. We have looked into this and yes agree if it states 5pm it should be 5 pm, although the only day we close at 5 is Saturday and that was Christmas eve, can you really blame the lads for wanting to get off early. They had been told they could finish early so really surprised to find they stayed as late as 3pm. I understand your frustration but can you really begrudged the guys finishing early on this day.

The car had to be returned and it was deemed un-drivable by a main dealer. Despite getting I refund, I'm out of pocket! Awful customer service!
