CARGEM 

Purchased a vehicle four weeks ago the sales team were very friendly, professional and accommodating but a little too keen on selling a three year warranty. I wish I could say the same about the preparation team four times I was promised it would be prepped to no avail including the day of picking it up, they would have done better to take it to the local car wash. I was allowed a short drive around the compound where we noticed a problem with both head lights which were replaced with second-hand ones. Having said all this it was a car that I wanted so we went through with the purchase and also took out the synthetic coating having been promised that the car would be prepped and we would not see any polishing circles. Forty minutes later the car was handed to us in very bright sun light looking great. However, that’s when thing started to go wrong. A rear wheel showed signs of a buckling which turned out to be loose wheel nuts, in not so bright light the synthetic coat had been applied over polishing circles, dirt and missed in places. When I phoned to our friendly sales team I was passed on to their after sales, ‘what after sale’ the only reply I have received was yes you’ve guessed it one not helpful email then no further replies to three more. Further to this I have had to replace the front brake pads and discs as they was down to the back plate, could I have taken it back for that, yes, but would I trust them, NO.
OK would I buy another from them, the answer is NO
Why, the sales team are very good at their job up until purchase. Prep Team should be (not printable).
Would I Say you shouldn’t buy from them, that’s for you to determine every one’s experience is different.
I would however, suggest a real road test drive and examine the car very thoroughly do not accept the sales banter as gospel; I’m not sure they know how bad their prep guys are, and read all the reviews I didn't.

FRAUDSTERS !! DO NOT BUY A CAR FROM THESE PEOPLE

I have just reported them to Motor Ombudsman and Trading Standards. I've just paid £16,846 for a Mercedes from them and was told they they had found a crack in the headlight and so they had ordered a new one from Mercedes to replace this and I would have to wait a few more days till this was fixed before they could let me have the car. I paid £395 to have the car delivered as Cargem is over 300 miles away from me, only to find that the headlight hadn't been replaced and was cracked and loose and even though they had put the car through an MOT, two of the tyres had big chunks of tyre missing which as a minimum should have been an advisory, so either themselves or the mechanic they use for MOT's is fraudulently passing cars through their MOT's. I have been battling to get responses from them now they have my money and they are basically calling me a liar, saying that they never told me the headlight was cracked and they were replacing it. I really wish I had read the reviews prior to buying a car from these fraudsters, as it seems I am one of many they have conned. They have made the whole situation of buying a car extremely upsetting and they have no concern at all for the aftercare of their customers once they have secured a sale with you.....Lets hope Trading Standards and the Motor Ombudsman can puta stop to them ripping people off !!!

I purchased a car from this cowboy company on Saturday. Very friendly staff, all just wanting your money. Long story short, they drill holes through BARE METAL in every car, instead of using the manufacturers holes. Completely lazy and ridiculous thing to do. This is so they can put their own number plates on with their advertising on. So once I change my number plate to a shortened plate, I now have a car that will potentially let water in and rust. Plus, I’ll have two ugly drilled holes either side. They have also said the car has been serviced with them, even though when I got it home the service light came on, which I now need to take to a garage to get removed. I spoke to the manager Hussain about this, he was rude and didn’t care whatsoever, saying “What do you want me to do about it?” Also he said as a ‘good will gesture’ he will get the service light removed! I’m sure that was something you were supposed to do anyway. Absolute joke. They take your money, and do not care about you once they have it. AVOID AVOID AVOID.

Very bad customer service

I was very disappointed with my experience and would not recommend this dealership based on the level of after-sales support I received.

I purchased a vehicle from them and identified a significant fault within two days of taking possession. The issue was reported promptly, yet I encountered difficulties in securing full support for the associated costs.

While the dealer has contributed partially towards the repair, they have refused to cover the full costs, including the diagnostic work required to identify and confirm the fault.

As a result, I have had to pursue this matter through formal dispute resolution channels.

Prospective buyers are strongly advised to exercise caution and to obtain clear, written confirmation in advance regarding how post-purchase faults, warranty arrangements, and responsibility for diagnostic or related costs will be handled.

Sadaan was a massive help to me today, although there were some extra damages to my car he was still able to offer a good price for me! highly recommend ☺️

Diren done absolutely everything to look after me. Years ago I bought a car from bif motoring world answer I had a terrible experience. Diren answered every question even went above and beyond to get me through best deal possible. Honestly if you want the best service possible come to Cargem ask for Diren. Management done everything they can THANK YOU DIREN THANK YOU IMRAN THANK YOU CARGEM

Would highly advise not buying a car from here, do not take the people who have had bad experiences lightly. They ask you to write a review while you’re at the dealership and it’s awkward to say no given the salesman act all nice. Once there are issues with the car and the after sales team deal with you, you’ll realise there is no professionalism there, just cunningness. Horrible horrible company.

Updated for response: you keep copy and pasting the same lines under the bad reviews. If you read my review you would know I have already contacted them and been met with rudeness and neglect - such as your response which clearly shows that you don’t really care about people’s bad experiences and just paste the same rubbish to everyone.

The entire experience has been extremely terrible.
1. The core issue is that I was sold a used car full of problems. First, the head unit was faulty — it could connect to Bluetooth but was unable to play music. I had no choice but to send the car to a BMW service centre for a full inspection. The diagnostic report clearly stated that the entire head unit needs to be completely replaced and further tested/programmed. Secondly, I was informed that the exhaust flange joint had been fitted with exhaust paste instead of a proper gasket. This indicates that the vehicle’s service history has been completely falsified.
2. I was also sold what I believe to be a fraudulent warranty. I was already very reluctant when purchasing this warranty, but the salesperson insisted on selling it to me. When my entertainment system was sent in for repair, I was then told that the maximum payout limit was only £500 — whereas at the time of sale, the salesperson clearly told me that any loss or repair cost would be fully covered. They are now playing word games with the terms and conditions. The salesperson is a liar.
3. When I contacted Cargem’s after-sales department, they informed me that they were unwilling to proceed with the repair. When I tried to contact the salesperson again, the salesperson deliberately ignored my messages.

This is a fraudulent company. Do not let them cheat you out of a single penny.

Danny - was very thorough and professional and the service was great

Great customer service, very friendly staff, I have been served by Jahid amazing 👍

Customer service is appalling. The salesmen are loud and very pushy. Very little follow up and the whole experience was pretty bad.

It was very great service from Danny. From start to finish

Great experience with Danny and Jas while buying my car from Cargem.

Very kind and helpful. Excellent service from Taylor and Saadan. Polite and very professional. I would 100% recommend selling your car with these guys!!

Big woman thing! Sadaan was Clear and transparent easy to talk to. He made the transaction felt at ease. Additional he listened and was considerate to my mitigation and made me saved money. Yaudman seh dat! None Higher than CARGEM respect once again and continue doing your best making us customers happy fully.

Dear All Just bought my first car from Cargem.Before buying the car the team was amazing ,customer oriented.
Finally the car was delivered to our door step ,so far so all good.
Next day morning I was about to wipe the car and I noticed the wiper seal was hanging out,which was not noticed during the test drive .
Called up Car gem the person who Sold the car (X).This is when the actual customer service shows up ,very negative and unprofessional.
Just received an email stating that it’s not covered under warranty even though the car is still not on the road.
I’m not expecting anything but the way the things were handled shows how you take care of your customers,doesn’t matter weather you buy a new car or used car but we are still paying for it .
WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND CARGEM
MR.JAS ..As a manager you need to change your approach towards your valued customer.
Thnx
