Best do a search on this forum for Keighley trade centre. I've not heard a good word said about them, only bad ones. The cars may be cheap but you can get better for your money elsewhere in my opinion.

They import loads of cars, both good and bad...

Went once with a friend and could'nt believe my eyes - having looked under the covers I could see you might end up with a total nightmare

Avoid unless you've got a mechanic with you.

I think they are ok. and what you see is what you buy. i went with my mate andy. we spent all day. and drove away with a genuine 38.000. silver WRX. its mint and it had only been in there 1 week..he posts as priceywrx. and he as had it now 8 months and as never mist a beat... He would have bought one that had got it all.... but like i said start standard and you make it yours.... not buy someones ****e that he got rid of for obvious reasons..

im currently in the same situation i know to steer clear of keighley trade , but also been checking out torqueofkeighley. as some nice looking cars on there still waiting to see what there like though. As some have said stay away unless its confirmed 100% thats its a good car.

Hey Dave went over to have a look today you were right Keighley Trade and Torque of Keighley are one in the same company they've just moved to a bigger location.

Although they do have a wide variety of cars and i really did like the white 52 reg STi they arent presented that well lots of dings and scratches on them.

So now ive counted silver out of the equation due to the fact they are rare as its black / white or blue to go for

Thanks for the advice you were all right. at least i had my eyes opened before doing something daft.
