Geschreven door het bedrijf

With a family history in motor vehicle sales across Kent, I grew up surrounded by cars and developed a passion for the industry from an early age. In 2020, I decided to build something of my own — and JW Autos was born. What began with just three cars quickly grew into a thriving business. Within five years, we expanded our stock to over two hundred vehicles and earned a strong reputation for personal service, expert knowledge, and high-quality used cars. Our commitment to excellence has been recognised nationally, winning Newcomer of the Year and UK Independent Dealer of the Year (General Sales – Under 150) at the 2023 MotorTrader Independent Dealer Industry Awards. We specialise in reliable, great-value everyday vehicles, sourced through trusted networks to offer a wide range of popular makes and models. Every car is personally selected and put through a rigorous 147-point inspection at our 22,000 sq. ft. preparation centre, where our team of master technicians, painters, and detailers ensure each vehicle meets our strict Quality Standard. Despite our growth, our values of integrity, transparency, and genuine care remain central to everything we do. Whether it’s your first car or your next one, JW Autos is dedicated to offering a straightforward, friendly, and trustworthy buying experience. Jack Waddell Founder, JW Autos

I agreed a purchase price on the phone and travelled 1 hour to purchase the car, only to be told the person who agreed the price had no authority. I was then offered a trade in price of 50% the value webuyanycar offered. Claimed they honoured the original price, but only after adding an £800 package sell on

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience and understand the frustration, especially after travelling.

As a general point, online valuations (such as those from WeBuyAnyCar) are estimates based on assumed condition and can change once the vehicle is inspected. The condition, as well as the MOT having expired in October last year, will affect the valuation.

That said, we believe in fair and honest business, and we did honour the price originally agreed.

We appreciate your feedback and will continue improving our communication to avoid situations like this in the future.

Many thanks,
JW Autos

Great services and lovely staff, we had Louie take care of us, and was very thorough and detailed with regards to everything we was told! Also was able to have a great laugh aswell which was a plus. So so grateful for it all as I now have a beautiful, fun car. Thank you!

Been forced to take them to Small Claims Court

Been forced to pursue a claim through Small Claims Court.
I bought a car from them which was supplied with a steering issue, this has been confirmed by two independent reports. Despite this they refused to refund and take the car back.

The car is unusable as I've been advised not to drive it by both inspection companies and Trading Standards so I'm stuck with an undrivable vehicle. Dealers must refund if an issue is presented within 30 days under the Consumer Act.

The warranty they sold me was £583 but on later inspection only covered a max payout of £1,000. I managed to get this refunded by issuing a formal complaint after advice from the Financial Conduct Authority.

They ghost you, don't answer emails or the phone. They are not a member of the Motoring Ombudsman which speaks volumes.

Update:
Since I'm unable to reply to their reply I will clarify here.
I notified JW Autos 3 days after purchase and was told to get it inspected at a garage. I produced a report from an MOT garage 6 days after purchase stating the car had a steering issue and rejecting the car under consumer law. JW Autos refused and insisted on a second report. I got a second report stating definite steering issue and possible steering column problem and that it would have been present at the point of sale.

Whatever the issue, if the car is not fit for purpose within 30 days of purchase it must be refunded. It is not the responsibility of the customer to diagnose only to prove there is an issue.

I gave 5 days to respond after sending them the 2nd report and after multiple emails and calls from me they offered a refund on the 5th day but insisted I take the car to them as their recovery vehicle was booked out for 2 weeks. I had been advised by both inspection sites and Trading Standards not to drive the car for safety reasons and so told them I was unable to deliver the car and it would have to be collected. JW Autos said they would get back and then didn't. I gave two more days to respond before continuing to claims. They didn't respond despite me emailing and ringing them. I then submitted a claim and notified them and they immediately rang me to offer refund and collection. I stated I was happy to cancel claim but now I would need refund not only of the car value but of the two reports and the claim fee. They said they would get back and didn't.

The car was not fit for purpose on point of sale. The first report by an independent MOT centre which cost £45 should have been enough but they insisted on a second report which cost me £300. The claim fee was £450. It should have been straightforward. After receiving the 1st report they should have arranged for the car to be collected and issued a refund. Instead they have delayed and pushed me to have a second report. As mentioned in other reviews here, communication ranges from poor to non existent.

Antwoord van JW Autos

Hi Debbie,
Thank you for your review. We strongly dispute several of the claims made.
At the present time the vehicle needs tracking done based on your independent inspection report.
Following your first complaint, we engaged with you and made a clear and reasonable offer to take the vehicle back and provide a full refund. This was done in line with our obligations and as a fair resolution to the matter. This offer was not accepted, as you chose instead to pursue the issue through the Small Claims Court.
At no point have we refused to resolve this matter. It is therefore incorrect to state that we would not refund the vehicle.
We also reject the claim that you were “ghosted.” We have consistently responded to your communications. The fact that our final position was not the outcome you were seeking does not mean that we failed to respond or engage.
With regard to the warranty, this is an optional third-party product with clearly defined terms, including claim limits, which are made available at the point of sale.
As this matter is now subject to legal proceedings, it would be inappropriate to comment further on specific details. We will address all points fully through the appropriate legal process.
Regards,
JW Autos

AVOID AVOID AVOID!!!

I'm sure they seem great, if your car has no issues. However, I purchased a car which immediately developed problems.
Now having to to through small claims court, have been without a car for 2 months, the whole experience has been incredibly stressful.
WARNING - look thoroughly at the WARRANTY - it is not as great as it would seem - max £1000 per claim and a lot of things aren't covered at all.

Hi Emma,

We are very sorry to hear about your experience and the stress this situation has caused you.

We always aim to provide a high standard of service to all our customers, and ensure all vehicles are supplied as described, with warranty terms clearly outlined at the point of sale. We understand your concerns regarding the warranty and appreciate that this can be frustrating.

As this matter is now subject to legal proceedingss, it would be inappropriate for us to comment further on the specific details within this public forum. We will, of course, address all points fully through the appropriate legal process.

Regards,
JW Autos

The sales lady was quite argumentative…

The sales lady was quite argumentative and at times standoffish if it wasn’t for the fact I liked the car so much I would have left and gone elsewhere.
The lady who helped do the tax and logbook however was very friendly and helpful. She also brought to light the fact the sales lady didn’t mention the ceramic or one other thing do with the clean.
The was not really cleaned to any degree of satisfaction as there was still spill marks by the cup holders and dog hair around the inside of the car. I would not recommend this dealer and would not go back in the future.

Antwoord van JW Autos

We are disappointed to read your feedback, as it does not reflect the standard of service we strive to deliver.

Our sales representative ensured you were given sufficient time and space to consider your decision before proceeding with the purchase. We would also like to clarify that ceramic coating is an optional, chargeable product which is discussed separately.

You were informed that the vehicle would receive a standard valet prior to collection, and we made every effort to ensure you were satisfied with the vehicle before it left our premises. At that time, no concerns were raised regarding the cleanliness or condition of the car.

We do appreciate your positive comments regarding the team member who assisted with the tax and logbook, and we will be sure to pass this feedback on.

While we are surprised by your comments, we value all feedback and will take this on board as we continue working to improve our service.

Many Thanks,
