JCT Cars, Rotherham
 
Anyone bought Subaru's from these? how were the cars, aftersales, part ex prices and finance offers?

Be good to know if they are good to use or be avoided.

I bought mine from Jason over a year ago now and did not have any problems...

Trade-in price he gave me was very good too! No problems with the car whatsoever apart from the CEL came up for the Knock Sensor which was replaced free of charge, no questions asked under a 3 month warranty.

So happy with the service that I recommended him to my sister and she bought a WRX 300 off him approx 6 months ago also with no problems! :)

His wife even fed my 4yr old whilst the wife and I were doing the paperwork!

nerocircus 17 February 2010 02:45 PM

echo the above. I found Jason to be a pleasant guy and, again, he offered me a good price part ex on my astra coupe. Best I could get, in fact. Had no trouble with the car really so can't comment on after sales support etc. Personally wouldn't hesitate about buying from him again, based on my experience.

nick172sport 17 February 2010 06:39 PM

as above jasons a top guy my cel light came on he sent me a message that he would replace my cam senser for nothing also he sold a evo which blew up the next day and jason had a new engine put in it for the guy aftersales brill will do buisness again with him cars are a little dearer but good quality

I just bought a 5 door classic turbo from then and they were spot on. Good friendly service and there to help afterwards.

Will 100% go back.

kaa273 26 January 2012 05:36 PM

I bought my 1st scoob from the car was sound my only gripe is his cars are overpriced (seemed at the time)

Cant really speak of his prices these days, because I havent a clue

ste_brough 26 January 2012 08:57 PM

I went to see a grey blob STi he had in a while back, nice chap. Seem to know a fair bit about scoobies, although told me to steer clear of imports as "they blow up" lol.

His prices are top end though, you could buy private for about 2/3's of those prices most of the time. Just something to be wary of as most people will be worried about resale values of these cars at the moment.

craiginsight 13 February 2012 06:06 PM

I'm actually seeing hesitation issues when I'm on boost. I'll be taking it up to JCT cars this week. I did speak to them and they said the warranty only covers major mechanical repairs so not sure if they are going to fix it free of charge or not. I've only had the car for 3 weeks so I'm hoping they do. Will keep you updated with how JCT deal with it and what the outcome is.

P555GAZ 13 February 2012 07:34 PM

bought my 05 wrx off him about 18 months ago no probs so far seems a top guy

paul 439 13 February 2012 09:41 PM

Spot on, bought my RB5 3 years ago no problems at all. Prices might be more than others but there is the warranty that is included he doesn't get that for free so will be more money. I had a problem with the car after a few weeks and the warranty covered it to the tune of £1600 absolutely no problem.

Yeah I'm not slating them. I dealt with Chris when I bought the car who, I think works for Jason. The call to them the other day was the first time I'd spoken to Jason.

Fingers crossed they fix it on warranty. All I'm doing is keeping people informed!

craiginsight 26 February 2012 10:11 AM

Well JCT sorted me out so a big thanks to them.

It turned out to be the boost solenoid which Chris and Jason (JCT) supplied and fitted yesterday. My car now has a smooth power arch and my face now has a big grin again.

Bought my 54 sti from him very nice bloke good cars

ditchmyster 04 May 2013 06:25 AM

Nice to know there are decent traders about.:thumb:

123Four 18 September 2013 11:07 PM

Bit of a bump, but just googled this trader and found this thread! Should have searched here first!

This is interesting. I've been wanting to go view and look at a Scooby for a while. But google'd a few of the common traders and found bad news. Very rarely do these cars come up at main dealers also.

I saw this JCT cars have a fair few and didn't think much of it, but I live about 10 minutes away from this location actually. I drive past the place daily. Wasn't sure about buying a car like this from a small place. But based on what you say here, seems like it might be worth a punt.

They do seem to stock Scoobs often.

Owjen I see people saying prices are hi and you can get then cheaper from privets, yes you can but look what's been said, he's clearly good with his warranties even putting a engine in a evo for someone, you don't get that from a privet

Fonzey 19 September 2013 03:00 AM

I went to look at two cars at JCT about a year ago and they were both described as mint/immaculate etc but in the flesh were pretty rough and about £1500 overpriced.

Jason treated me to a pretty scary/impressive passenger test drive though :lol1:

stuntmonkey46 19 September 2013 10:35 AM

I got my 04 sti from him 3 years ago,never missed a beat,good car etc

JCT cars rotherham- Top trader 5*
 
My son bought his first car from Jason back end 2013- C2 1.6i. Got a great deal for an immaculate car + tax, test, 2 new tyres & service. Had short warranty so when I heard noise under bonnett that didn't sound right when cold in the morning (i'm an engineer- not a mechanic!) I took it back to jason & chris who checked it out but could not hear the problem. Instead they extended the warranty by 3 months to cover any fault developing.
After this the suspension collapsed on one side.
Took the car back (on trailer) over the weekend & by Tuesday morning it was fixed.
Jason replaced the springs & the strut bearings (?) on both sides just to be sure- with NO CHARGE. 100% satisfaction in my experience- no fuss- no backtracking. Man of his word- would recommend & use again.

Very rare you hear this sort of thing, nice dealing business I suppose.

Do they do German mobiles

belewski1984 05 March 2014 03:57 PM

Yes thought i put this up i got my first wrx in jan this year and had no problems with Jason was very welcome and gave me loads of time to go over the car and the folder of paper work that came with it and answered all questions without hesitation. When I went there was 3 wrx all looked in excellent condition would recommend going and looking at what he has and for the prices you can alway haggle .

tubbytommy 05 March 2014 04:19 PM

decent dealer in yorkshire shocker!!!!

SWEENEYWRX 05 March 2014 05:01 PM

I bought my 05 widetrack STi from Jason, front lambda went and so did the weld on the pre cat about a month after I bought it, Jason sent up both parts no problem at all, highly recommended

TheOriginalAquapanther 24 March 2014 10:32 AM

Bought a WRX off them yesterday, travelled from Scotland o see it and Jason was a top bloke, give us plenty of time and a decent test drive - drove back 250MILES WITH NO ISSUES AT ALL.

very happy

chrishigham 25 March 2014 01:53 PM

He just bought my subaru off me a week ago. I was at work . No hassle easy sale I was told and a really nice guy. Just got a letter though from police saying I didn't pay for fuel 10 mins after he left with it after buying it .
