Hi folks, I'm in Glasgow for work and am thinking of having a look at some cars while over there. Anybody have any thoughts on Arnold. After they all the sameor do different branches have different reputation.

Thanks

goochy

he is THE car dealer in scotland and been around ages hard to see how u could go wrong - imagine the scots are tough customers !

LFC Murphy

Thanks goocy, rang him about a smax yesterday but advised me against it as they found to much wrong with it. Told me to drop by anyway as there was plenty of other cars that would interest me.

They are notorious crooks... BUT, he didn't build the cars or drive them he just has big shed in which to sell them... so if the price is right.. away ye go.

Hi si guru, are you speaking from experience?

Can you back up this claim please?

he dominates the car market in Scotland and has done for years so cant see how anybody dodgey could do that , he would lose franchises if he was . I have worked in car dealerships, if a customer rings the distributor to complain about a dealer, the distributor will be on st8 away looking for an explaination . So thats why main dealers have to be above board !

i've seen loads of cars with these stickers in Sco, seems like a good dealer to me

I'm sure you get good and bad with everyone. However it's the very very bad I'm on the look out for.

When I search for cars, the common dealers are cargiant and arnold clark. But there is also Evan Halshaw... Anyone ever deal with these?

I'm so sick of looking... I should get my Mondeo estate and be done with it!

goochy

they are long est. and one of the biggest dealers in england
