Best avoided
Bought a Citroen Pluriel from Motoring City Ltd early March 26. I wanted a car for my sons to learn to drive in, and was reassured that the car would have been serviced with a new MOT.I knew it had some faults (roof did not retract properly) and had planned to fix these up myself.The sale process was efficient and reassuring and the car arrived a day early but initially seemed fine.When I drove it that night, however I realised that there was an issue with the headlights. When I investigated the following day, in one headlight the driving light and full beam had been spliced together, and in the other headlight, a yellow duster had been packed into the headlight to keep the bulbs in place. At that point it was obvious to me that the car had not been MOT'd correctly. (The dealer later went on to tell me that the MOT tester claimed that these issues were not present during the MOT, with the implication that I must have caused them myself?!)The car was collected to rectify these faults a week later. The dealer had the car for 10 days after that, and no progress was made with the repairs, so I formally rejected it. It took a further week to get a refund and some paper work so that I could get an insurance refund. The car was put back on Autotrader by the dealer later that day.I am unsure where we are with the road tax, because when I tried to cancel this, it said that the dealer had not sent off the V5, which I have heard can be a tactic to avoid the 'Number of Previous Owners'All in all, a company best avoided.
