“Terrible, terrible, terrible. Never purchase a vehicle from TCW, just reiterating all the other reviews here... As soon as they have your signature on that paper and you drive away, you will never see them again. I made the mistake in not looking at reviews and wish I had. Majority of cars from TCW have issues and costly problems a short while after driving away (just take a read at all of these other reviews). In my case it's a 1.2 TDI Polo, my first car and first real financial burden in my life and I've got to fork out near £1,500 for an EGR and DPF replacement (one of the most expensive jobs on a Diesel engine). NEVER BUY FROM TCW, PLEASE.”

“Awful. The sales people bully you into buying a car which ends up breaking down constantly. Avoid!!!”

“Would award a 0 if possible. From the time we arrived, the sales person followed us around like a bad smell and was very pushy. This should have raised big red flags for us but unfortunately, with a newborn in tow and needing a new car, it didn't. We agreed on the car and cleared finance with no issue but it was far from the 'drive away in under an hour' that they advertised. Once all signed for and tax sorted, they announced they could only find one key (which was out of battery) and no service book. Again, alarm bells should have rung but at gone 9pm we agreed to return the next day for a new battery and in the hope that they found the missing key. So that's what we did and drove away old school style using the key rather key card. Returned next day where they had found the missing key (complete with dog teeth chew marks) but still no service book. Fast forward a few weeks where we needed a new coil pack...then another...and another. TCW just didn't want to know. 2 years and about 10 coil packs (plus other issues) later, the car starts cutting out every time I break. TCW still ignore us so we involve the finance company who fail to get response from TCW. Tried contacting them again to be ignored BUT they have the audacity to invite us to their VIP event! After yet another large bill and 5 coil packs, we take the hit and pay off the finance in order to get rid of the car. Went to Motorpoint and our experience couldn't have been any further from the one received in TCW. Moral of the story, avoid TCW at all costs as they will take your money and not give a damn once they've got your signature on the paperwork. Would not recommend to anyone, not even to my worst enemy!!!”

“The worst company I’ve ever dealt with. Sold me a car and the windscreen wiper came off as I was leaving the showroom. Then I find out they put the wrong tyres on my car and nearly kill me and my 4 year old daughter. They didn’t even apologise. AVOID.”

“Ohhh well Goodbye car had since January smoking let's see if the RAC parts and labour warranty they sold me actually covers engine repairs when I bought the car on finance took it home noticed I had no heaters, called them up they recovered it no coolant do they changed the thermostat and housing I then went to collect it drove it home 15 miles and coolant pouring out everywhere so they recovered it again had an independent mechanic do a report on it and low and behold it needed a new water pump new thermostat new housing new pipe work ohhhh yes and apparently new rear brake calipers new discs and pads all the way around new clutch so over 700 in parts they did fix and repair everything reinstated my 30 day cover but what they didn't tell me is that the engineer said in the report that the engine might need to be replaced in the future, then 5 months down the line I break down. Had a BMW specialist looking at it and engine needs to come out as it's knackered and needs to be fully reconditioned apparently t he parts and laboir warranty only cover 80 percent and as a single dad of a very ill child I can't afford this never buy a car from these people they can shine it up until it's gleaming but Wats lurking underneath u will never know 😠”

“Buy at your own risk! I do not think their technicians check the cars properly in the so-called 99 point inspection, my car a range rover Evoque started with problems straight away which they fixed until made themselves unreachable, once you pay your money forget it you won't see them again.”

“Pushy unhelpful salesmen. Took three salesmen to try and negotiate a deal. And then lied about what the car came with. (Sat nav sd card) only got it as threatened to walk away Whilst the aftercare entertains bringing in a car with a fault the service team are unable to rectify it. Three trips to sort out a tpms problem. That's three days at work lost. Two dpf faults in month also. Poor show all-round”

“I purchased a Seat Ibiza from Trade Centre Wales Cardiff on the 28th August. It was to replace the lease car that I had which was due to go back at the end of October and as a result the Seat was not going to be used a lot until then. While the buying process did seem a little excessive having to move several times to different people, but it was relatively straight forward. I had been assured that the car had been thoroughly checked over but I had twenty eight days to bring it back if there were any problems. I took my car to my local garage to find that there were several faults including a leaking shock absorber, the driver’s seat belt would not recoil, the brakes were sticking and it needed a new back box on the exhaust. I phoned Trade Centre Wales and they arranged a date in the middle of September, it was all easily organised. When I took my car in for repair I was told that it may be there for two days in order to get the parts, but I was kept informed of the progress with regular calls. The car that I have is a model with a detachable satellite navigation system which has a mounting point on the dash board. I used the Sat Nav to find the location of the garage workshops and then removed it placing it in the glove box. The car was two days in the garage and as I said I was kept up to date with the progress. I picked the car up all the repairs had been carried out and I thought everything was good. The car was hardly used for the next three weeks spending most of its time parked on my drive. On the return of my lease car I set about getting the Ibiza ready for regular use, I put everything I would need into the car but realised that my Satellite Navigation system was missing. The last time it was used was to go to Trade Centre Wales garage, placing it in the glove box and then not using it again. I did check everywhere for it but with no luck. I can only conclude that it was removed from my car by someone while at Trade Centre Wales. I did inform the garage but unfortunately it was some weeks later and realistically had no chance of satisfactory outcome. I did have a response from TCW saying that there was no reason for the Sat Nav to be removed. I’m guessing I am unlikely to buy another car from Trade Centre Wales in the future and my advice to anyone purchasing a car from them is, to take the car to your local garage straight away for a check over and if having to take your car back remove all valuable items from the car. While I am not looking for a response from TCW, if they do I hope it is not a generic response that is often used, but perhaps something directly concerning the individuals particular concern, this would be much more appreciated.”

“Bought a Mazda CX5 2014 off this company in the summer, when the cold weather came found out there was no heating, found out that the water system was persurising meaning head gasket had gone, only had the car 4 months covering 4700 miles, contacted tradecentrewales and was told it's a second hand car and basicly tough luck, was also told head gasket is not covered under the the extended warranty costing £40 a month, would not touch this company ever again as all their vehicle are rubbish, the company had no after sales service so one they sell you your car you are on your own”

“We have bought the vehicle astra 2012 in February After a week engine management light came on a dash, it was flashing on and off, despite replacing the part and getting that fault removed came back again very soon. Me and My Girlfriend we took that to many places to get it checked and we have been told it needs major electrician to get it fixed because obviously many fault codes popped up but no one can solve the light problem. Thats a pain but that was just a start adventure with the car. The main issue is that I will never understand that when customers buy cars from them they are assured that the car has gone through lots of inspections and its almost like a brand new, what happend then? While driving the car started giving a grinding noise, oil leak from gearbox, main shaft was gone we fixed that and today i came from the mechanic with the same issue after two months of having that fixed, that's absolutely disuguisting and sad that people have to pay for the 'cars' that they cannot use it just keeps our heads constantly worried, and drains our pockets, when we were buying this car we thought that its going to be something reliable, nothing more wrong. I dont want to get any feedback from the tcw. There is absolutely no way to reward almost a year of worries. Regards to other people having similar issues.”

“Our car we bought from them is just over a year old, over £1000 in repairs and 3 times the catalytic converter has cracked, now it needs a new engine. The car is only used for work and the mechanic has done a full investigation that shows these faults are a lot more than a year old. We had 3 kids in the car when the engine stopped working coming off a motorway. Please do not buy off this company, it will break your heart and your bank balance.”

“I bought my car a ford ka 2012 in March and it’s now in the garage with the gear box gone. I only had it 4 months paid £4000 for it. There's no way they didn’t know it was on its way out as only had an mot the month before. Please don’t anyone buy anything from here because they are definitely selling cars that are unfit for purpose. I’m going to be also sending this email to my local trading standard as I believe they are selling dodgy cars and their mots certificates they are giving with the cars are also not being done legally and complying with the dvla laws. I didn’t contact them because the warranty was only for 3 months and this had expired they knew exactly what they were doing.”
