3 out of 5 stars

Not sure if 3 stars is appropriate.

Please note that in fairness I am leaving this review without having bought a car from ACF. Over the telephone this dealership came accross as a little slippery, they seem to be advertising cars on eBay that they don’t actually have. This little sales trick encourages the potential customer to make contact and then you get some rubbish over the telephone about it going through the finance application process with another customer - hence practically sold and unavailable to view. To test this I enquired about the same vehicle weekly over a period of 4 weeks. The vehicle is still listed on eBay over 5 weeks after having first seen it, yet it is still unavailable to view as its “going through the fianance application” Their website boasts a finance decision within the hour. (Eh?) The sales staff seemed uninterested when I pointed out that I only wanted to view that particular vehicle. Every time we spoke they offered to call me back if the applicant was unsuccessful in securing finance, but never even asked for my name or contact details. I find that an honest straight forward approach works best in my line of work and I appreciate the same when I am the client. Used car dealerships get a bad name generally and it’s this type of behaviour that rang an alarm bell with me and personally I decided not to do business with them. However the team at Bristol street motors in Halifax are fantastic to deal with and I’ll review their service positively in a separate review. Buying a used car is a potential minefield and hope this has helped.
