Following a number of posts etc. regarding car sales businesses that have the word 'Cheshire' in their trading name I've done a bit of research.

This is an extract from Companies House Webcheck regarding the above 'company':

--------------------------------------------------------------

Name & Registered Office:
CHESHIRE CAR SALES LTD
C/O xxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (info removed by me).

Company No. 04846683



Status: Dissolved 09/02/2010
Date of Incorporation: 28/07/2003

Country of Origin: United Kingdom

Company Type: Private Limited Company
Nature of Business (SIC):
5010 - Sale of motor vehicles

---------------------------------------------------

A website named www.cheshirecarsalesltd.co.uk was registered in April this year, but the registrant is a Sole Trader.
However, the business trades via at least one well-known online car site detailed as being 'Cheshire Car Sales Ltd'.

This is clearly confusing and I have emailed Companies House to notify them that a Sole Trader appears to be using the name of a dissolved company, and indeed the word 'Ltd'.

I'll also be informing the relevant Trading Standards dept. of the situation.

All correspondence received will be posted here, provided that would conform to any legal requirements and SN policy.

I have not made (and I am not making) any judgemental decision. I simply think that you should be made aware of facts.

I also suggest - request even - that contributors to this thread do not make judgements.
However, posts detailing factual and objective experiences of this business
would be helpful.

Cheers.
