Want a bodged car? buy from Evans Halshaw! i bought a 2014 Focus from them 8 months ago, since owning it for EIGHT MONTHS i have had to replace the horn, boot struts, ford badges as they fell off, parcel shelve clips they fixed with tape, AC never worked and doesn't hold gas, two tyres, an advisory on a MOT magically disappeared on EH MOT but now needs doing 8 months later which is looking like a new steering rack, kit in boot for wheel isn't even right one for car and too small so good job i randomly checked this rather than just gone out getting a flat tyre to not be able to even change it myself! all wiper blades needed changing after 4 months as well, only thing EH did was chuck new discs and pads on it. Now after 8 months i decided to take the car to a mates garage for a service who informed me this car hasn't been serviced like they claimed and with how black the oil is he estimates its not been done for at least 30,000 miles and the oil filter was so seized on it had to be ripped off not screwed off and the air filter that's meant to be white is dark yellow looking like something off a tractor, all the belts need changing and the water pump which EH claims to have inspected and the previous owner had this all done which is not true, all paint they used to touch up the wheels came off after 4 months as well. So after 8 months i am left with a car i'll be lucky to get half my money back for because they lied and skipped out on jobs same for previous owners, i have had to spend almost £1,000 on this car so far just so it can keep going and function like it should! EH should be hold accountable for lies they say and are clearly not inspecting or having the seller prove anything before EH sell it, pretty sure if i took this car back to them and told them its had all belts done and serviced they'd just put my car up for sale and tell all people interested in it that this has been done without me even proving it, thanks to me this car is good to go for rest of its life but it concerns me how buckets like this are sold to a main dealer like EH then sold to members of public, want to buy a car from EH? have a mechanic inspect the vehicle for you and check EVERYTHING as nothing they claim is actually backed up by proof and you run the risk of buying a vehicle that's been doctored up for sale that will last maybe a year before it all starts showing and guess who has to pay for it. So to sum up i bought a Focus off them that has had to have almost £1,000 spending on it to keep it going, none of what they told me about the belts or service was true, right now the car is all done except needing a new suspension part and is a great car but like most cars nowadays they are neglected which i understand with buying used cars but when Evans Halshaw gets a car in they should be doing the bare minimum of actually servicing them and inspecting the belts and key elements and putting right the neglect that can have severe consequences because if i kept driving it the belts could have snapped causing severe engine damage or kept driving it with a steering rack that's been in need of replacing for well over a year, nobody cares anymore and just thinks meh that can be the next owners problem, if people just had things done when required cars would last for hundreds of thousands of miles and you could ask a higher price for it, instead you've got cars like this with only 70k miles ready for scrapyard unless someone saves them instead of just selling it on and on until it does break or cause a accident, now that the car is done its a great car and i can't fault it one bit but would i buy another car from EH? no i wouldn't because i know for a fact someone could take a complete bucket to them and they'd still sell it me and you only have to look on Youtube to see the death traps EH has been putting out on the road.
