    No landline? So one new free SIM later and another name on the website and any comeback on the car you just bought vanishes with the SIM?

    Is this the one at the Jet garage? County cars sales back then.

    Didnt spot that about no landline,

    not sure if its at the jet garage, just worried as its a 2 1/2 hour trip each way for us
  • Best avoided in my opinion.
  • forgotmyname, it looks like you are right. It is on the corner of Tarry Road. Just my opinion, but I think it might be best to avoid.

    Appears to be the same address. So since google streetview drove past its changed its name.

    Yep, Googled 242 Alum Rock Road and County car sales comes up. As well as the service station.

    AND County Garages (Birmingham)
    CMH motors ltd.

    CMH accident claim (dissolved).


    Been a few company names at that address.
