Jeff White Cars

[Ciaran]

Hi all

I'm very interested in a car these guys are selling, can anyone give me any feedback on what they are like. Spoke to them a few times on the phone and seem to be ok although don't offer any decent warranty unless you pay and the price is not negotiable.

I'm in Belfast so any help would be great.

Thanks
Ciaran

Hi Ciaran they are local to me so been there a number of times when looking for something new they seem to have a lot of nice cars sales guys are easy going no high pressure but have never bought from there . there's something Whitch I car'nt put my finger on that puts me off the place but that's just probably me being a funny bugger hope this helps

They are a big used car outlet. Only ever been to see one or two cars there and never bought them so can't really say except they weren't the best of their type. I've never heard anything good or bad really so, as it says above, it's a suck it and see exercise. Even good dealers get bad cars and vice versa.

Thanks everyone.

they have a car I'm want to buy but even if I pay a non refundable deposit they won't keep the car for me until 28th Sept - only time I can get across.

I'll just have to look about elsewhere unless their one is still available next week.

I think you mean, if you're unhappy with their standard warranty.

Good chance it will be...

Agreed, and don't call me Shirley.

(Sorry, Airplane 2 was on last night.)

Well, done the deal with these guys. I've checked the mileage, done the HPI report so hopefully I won't be let down.

Picking it up on Sunday morning then driving to Holyhead for the boat home.

Time dependent call in on the South West Wales Breakfast meet on your way back. You'll have to all but pass the meet anyway.

Edited as Geography let me down. Probably a big diversion actually! Let us know how you get on with the car anyway.

And I did A-level geography!

I'll be leaving cardiff, hopefully around 10am - my boat is at 5pm I think so do you think is possible that I could make it? Where is the meet?

I'll let Mr Morgan answer that what with my past record. Over to you Huw.

Just looked up the route, AA tells me it will take 5 hours 15 minutes, 225 miles.

I need to be at Holyhead around 4.30pm.

[huwdm]

Actually I would say its a about a 4 hour drive from the breakfast meet.
The meet is 9.30 and you want to be there a bit early so you would have to leave the meet around 10.30 - 11 so i guess it depends what time you collect the car. From cardiff to the meet is an hour.
Also from here up through mid and west wales is a great drive and probably pretty much the same or quicker than the motorways from cardiff.
Do some googling and see how it goes.

[Ciaran]

I'll not be getting the car until about 9/9.30 it may be a stretch to get to the meet. I think I'd rather take my time on the drive to be honest.

[Ciaran]

Any recommendations on where to stop for something to eat on the way to Holyhead?

[huwdm]

Google Cardiff to Holyhead and follow the left hand route through mid wales and you wont want to stop for lunch. Loads of great roads.
And it wont be any slower than around the motorways. Should be plenty of pubs and cafes on route.

[Ciaran]

That's the route I was planning to take. Looking forward to the drive!

Thanks

Got back in to Belfast at 9pm last night after a fantastic drive through Wales, such a beautiful place. I taken the scenic route and the roads were brilliant.

Delighted with my purchase.
