Lots of cars on their website look too cheap to be true. Wouldn't even bother.

Look through the cars on the website, they are all on V car as Cat C or Cat D, so clearly they are buying smashed up cars cheap, getting one of there bruva's to repair them and knocking them out for sale.

And id never buy a car from Birmingham!

Stolen car parts to repair that's the usual thing with the higher end performance ones. Some of the cars 30% cheaper then similar cars

Thats the one!! It was a cat D in feb 2012 so if they repaired it that means its been for sale a LONG TIME!!!

I went to look at a bmw320d for myself about 5 years ago and basically had the same experience as yeaterday!!! DO NOT BUY CARS FROM BIRMINGHAM haha

they pakistanis by any chance

How is this even relevant?
When was the last time you said, "I'm not racist, but.....?"

I paid 7k for mine and its perfect!! Mine is a cat d and so was the silver one we looked at today... i would have thought for 7k it be a half nice car even on a cat d

I'm confused, genuinely and not taking the p*ss but how do 'Cat D' and 'Perfect' go together?

Perfect condition is what i mean... 16000 miles from new and no expense spared on it but yes its a cat d.....

£32k for an rs3 with mickey mouse wheels on ? .... No thanks lol

Weren't these a option? Either way not great.

The other issue with cat c and d cars is you cant insure them nowadays most companies wont touch them and if you dont tell them they ll soon find out when you come to claim then you ll have no insurance any way !!!
They are not really a cheap way to buy a car

I also have a cat d cbr1000rr and after a chat with my insurance company they say they do insure them BUT wont offer extras like agreed value etc! Also if you ever do write it off again they kick you in the nuts when it comes to payout time due to much lower value

They are the stock wheels. You can actually order those with the red on.

I was going to comment on this thread but AndyBohen saved me the bother ^^^^^^

I came across these guys a while ago when looking for an R32. Stay well clear.

Looks like they are trying to get a better (aka worse!) reputation than Keighley

That a refernce to Keighley Trade Centre? Should see the new site, they have taken over a multi story car park, had a walk round the other week, got lost in the place, must be a few £million worth of stock.

Found myself on the roof when i got lost and found a smashed up merc Vito van, seemed very strange.

I've been looking at some cars at Keighley Trade Centre, sent them a few emails regarding mileage which wasn't shown on the adverts, got no answer, so that told me all I needed to know really.
