Im looking at buying a car and have seen a couple that im interested in on the woodcote carriage website based in sutton. They ask to email and not call as its a private sale, does anyone have any experience or knowledge of the company at all

Given those terms I'd avoid them. If they are traders it's not a private sale.0 -
/\ what he said.0

Based on what you said then I would agree with the others - avoid them if they are treating it as a private sale.
However, looking at their website I do find what you have been told to be funny as it clearly saysalternatively you can call us direct on 0208 661 8889.
Did they tell you to email after you rang them up?
Also, as an aside when I go to their site it says they currently have no cars available.0 -
Could be a commission sale on behalf of a private owner."You were only supposed to blow the bl**dy doors off!!"0

Yes definately to be avoided if they say it's a private sale, you will have no comeback if any faults appear, i bet they still want top price for it as well0

Strange- I've looked at the site and it is only showing 1 car for sale. I smell a rat.0

Yeah, was just wondering the same thing as said above... there's only 1 car for sale on their site and there's no picture... hmmm0

Thats what we looked at, also they advertise using their name but on cars selling on autotrader. Tried calling and its say they are all with customers but not the name of the business etc!!!! Very dodgy0

Plenty more cars out there. I'd leave this company well alone if it were my money...0 -
Or someone posing as the company who will be really friendly and offer you his personal mobile number because he is never at the address.
Call the number and let us know how you get on.0
