I bought a Hyundai ix35 from West Yorkshire Motors in May 2026. Shortly after purchase (with a fresh MOT), I had the car independently inspected by my local garage. They found both rear tyres were below the legal tread depth limit, the handbrake was seized/inoperative and would not pass an MOT brake efficiency test, rear suspension/control arms were required, and the car also had brake judder and a fuel gauge issue that I was told at the time was a simple fix. So far, the repairs have cost me over £1000.

I contacted West Yorkshire Motors multiple times by text/phone and sent a formal complaint by Royal Mail Signed For, but I have not received a satisfactory response. Royal Mail attempted delivery of the letter multiple times but it was not signed for.

Based on my experience, I would not buy from this dealership again!

Hi bought my first car off these guys bought a corsa 1.2 absolute great service mak wasn’t pushy at all he did t try to convince to buy how a lot of other dealers do hospitality was great came in the office offered me tea coffee when veiwing the car they left me to it with the key all the questions I had answers perfectly the way the do business is great car had 3 months mot on it offered me a 12 months very honest people it was due a service in 2 months time said that they’ll get it serviced I was a bit nervous about it because it was my first car felt like I didn’t know what to do but they made me feel really confident in buying gave me a deep clean on the car aswell a machine shine overall a great process

Honestly, not very impressed. Went to see the car and for a test drive on the 22nd Jan, collected it on the 26th, broke down on the 3rd of Feb after a trip to Glasgow (clutch, and potentially gear box). The car had warranty, but I was not allowed to fix it in Glasgow, so had to arrange transport to Leeds with RAC, as well as rent a car for myself to be able to go back home. I was around 10 days carless, and once I got the car back, within days I realized there was a leak under. Something was not correctly fitted while they fix it.
Today my car has been serviced at my local trusted garage, and they said the wet belt (timing belt) needs changing asap as is starting to crack, and that'll be around £700-800, they said that seller probably knew this. So overall, not great. I wouldn't say terrible, but I definitely wouldn't buy from here again.

We bought a ford Kuga from this dealer drove from Glasgow, and told the car was great. we paid £3150 cash for the car. This car had injector problems only found this out after I had to get it recovered. was told don't worry get it fixed and we will pay the bill. " not the case i had to pay a further £780" to the garage was advised starter motor was about to go only to find out the engine had seized. Now they are refusing to give me my money back as all of this was within 30 days of the purchase. Sold an un-road car so currently reporting this dealer to the police and trading standards DO NOT USE THIS DEAL CON MAN.
I will do everything in my power to make sure he never sells another car.

Purchased a vehicle with a warranty and agreed a service would be carried out. Within a couple of days, warning lights all over the dash. Got a diagnostic done and they said get your money back. £850 repair but not guaranteed to fix. Then the seller went abroad for a couple of weeks. Stopped answering calls and replying to messages. Refused to refund, wanted to repair (which would invalidate my right to a refund) with a new battery and a brake pad !! Vehicle was NOT serviced - brake fluid low and brakes dangerous. Refused to hand over any details of warranty even though I paid him for one.
Now going to court.
Please do yourself a favour and go somewhere else. Our experience here has been nothing less than shocking.

The first visit to look around the guys seemed really friendly, although a little pushy offering to put six months tax on, re-mot it and service it to sweeten the deal. We arrived a few days later to pick the car up. The tax hadnt been done, so he went on his phone and pretended to put the tax on. The car hadnt been serviced as the oil was very dark and the oil filter was very old. We also suspect it wasn't taken to a test station for the MOT as the handbrake doesn't hold properly and one of the reg plate bulbs didnt work, these would have been a failure or at least an advisory. The guy said he had sent the V5 off to DVLA and didnt give us the new keeper slip. We had to ring DVLA and pay them for a new V5 to enable us to go to the post office to be able to tax it. So all in all, they they didn't carry out what they said they would and they let us drive the car away knowing it was untaxed and had a very dubious MOT. A couple of weeks after obtaining the car we got a parking fine so they were driving the car around untaxed, we disputed it as at the time of the fine we hadnt even seen the car. I would not deal with this garage again and would advise others to stay clear too.

Buyers without mechanical knowledge should PROCEED WITH CAUTION and follow a proper used-car buyer’s checklist before committing. The sellers have a very old-school approach to selling cars i.e. cash only and hiding faults. If you’re comfortable navigating that sort of 1980s Arthur Daley / Del boy style wheeler-dealer experience, you might be fine — otherwise bring someone who knows their way around a car and can spot the FAKE MOT, FAKE Service History and a quick flipped car.
