Peterborough-imports, good or bad????
Hi, I'm looking at a car from these guys. Just wondering if anyone on here has any experiences and whether they were good or bad experiences.
Thanks
Thanks

If its who I am thinking of in Werrington then IMHO you could do better! Keeping in mind I pass them twice a week and seen some of there stuff that's been sold and some of my friends who have had troubles with them.
Not getting into a debate about them but that's my opinion and I would advice you to get a RAC or AA inspection done before you even think about buying a car from them.
Good luck!

Gearknob is either worn due to mileage or mouldy as if the car has been standing.
Don't be too pre-ocupied that the car has supposedly low mileage, go for a car thats been better looked after.
The engine bay is quite dirty for a car with such apparent low mileage.
Id say its been standing for a while
Just my opinion.....

I'd say it looked ok, but..
Is it me, or does thar n/s/f wing look completely out of line with the front door and is the n/s/r wheel buckled.
The engine bay looks alright. About the same level of dirt as my 55 plate with similar miles!
I might pop down and have a look.

Also I thought that all the build number plaques were located on the interior,not on the bootlid.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I could be completely wrong but it looks as if it has suffered nearside damage at some point as said above,the wing and rear door looks out of line and that wheel is definately damaged.Also there appears to be what looks like white overspray on the sill trim.
Also I thought that all the build number plaques were located on the interior,not on the bootlid.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
