    Hi Guys

    Just a quick one, was wondering has anyone dealt with these guys at all. I live in D15 and they are seemingly from around here but I know the whole area and haven't seen them at all. Not to say they are not in the back of some estate. They are called PF Auto and they seem to have a massive amount of cars at ok prices but they look as dodgy as hell. Also I had a chat with one of the guys today and there trade in prices are less than 50% than any other garage would offer, he only wanted to deal straight without trade in.

    The prices on carzone appear to be nonsense to be honest. They had some very well priced Audi A8s on before. When I enquired, they didnt come back about them.
    They dont stock any cars so may not have a premises here any bigger than an office. They source cars from uk auctions so if someone agrees to a price on a car from the pictures, they will try to source it from the auction. They may or may not get the car at a suitable price & if they dont you would be told the car didnt meet their standard so they wouldnt sell it to you.

    yeah I just thought it was mad, I asked them for trade in price for my car, worst price on carzone for similiar car is 9k or more. They offered 4k. When I asked to confirm they came back with snotty answer. They wanted me to pay over 9k to upgrade by 2 years when every other garage has said at worse it would be 2,500-3k to upgrade per year for same model/engine

    Premier Fleet Auto's who have nothing at all to do with www.premierfleet.ie

    Is it PFA who clog up carzone with cars that don't exist, or is it another crowd?
