Reputations are not built overnight
In Referenceline's view, this track record is more important than the ratings. Don't be impressed by a few old reviews which may not be representative.  Look for firms with a commitment to asking for feedback - good or bad - from their customers.  We recommend that you look for a track record of ratings and reviews in at least 9 of the last 12 months and that you should not be too concerned about an isolated negative review.  Ask the firm for their side of the story.
 


 
Good Practice
Businesses have a legal responsibility to treat you fairly, but it's often hard to know what questions to ask or what standards to expect.  They are the experts and you should be able to rely on them to help you make decisions.  These questions explain the commitments that this business has made to follow a code of practice and they will help you understand what you have a right to expect.
 
History: 100%
Before ordering the vehicle, did the firm show you written information from previous owners including service records and any signed statement about the vehicle\'s mileage?
 
Presale Checklist: 100%
Before ordering the vehicle, did the firm show you a checklist of inspections made by the garage to ensure the vehicle is in a roadworthy condition?
 
Facilities: 100%
Before ordering the vehicle, did the firm offer reasonable facilities for the vehicle to be examined, either by you or by someone else for you?
 
Warranty Explanation: 100%
Before ordering the vehicle, did the firm give you written details of any warranty, including a clear explanation of what is, and what is not, covered?
 
Payment: 100%
Before ordering the vehicle, did the firm give you clear information about the price of the vehicle, about any linked items such as extended warranties, and how to pay. (e.g. cash, cheque, credit card or credit agreement)?
 
Regn Certificate V5C: 100%
At handover, did the firm give you the vehicle registration certificate (V5C)?
 
MOT Certificate: 100%
At handover, did the firm give you a current MOT certificate, if the vehicle is 3 years old?

Explanation: 100%
At handover, did the firm give you an explanation of the vehicle, with reference to the handbook where available?
You can see how many customers have said "Yes" in answer to each question, but please don't expect 100% in every case.  Nobody's perfect and some customers may not be completely sure about the answer.  It's more important that you understand these questions and discuss them with the business so that you both agree what good service means for you.  A responsible business will be happy to explain the details to you and it's always better to clarify these points upfront to avoid misunderstandings later on.

"Over the last 5 years since forming the company, I have bought 7 vehicles from LJ Copland. This firm provides fantastic service from sales, servicing, repairs and MOT prep. The owner understands our requirement and reacts to requests with speed. We have complete faith in this firm as without them our business would not run efficiently, we are based 80 miles from this firm – and will continue to deal with them in favour of local Deale."
