Having has a previous bad experience with another garage I was a but nervous about buying off a website/over the phone but I have to say Phil at Cartec made my whole experience absolutely 1st class! From my initial enquiry to the hanfover of the cars the
whole process was fantastic! I was originally due to collect the car but due to an unforseen issue with the infotainment system and it needing a part, So I wasn't inconvenienced, Phil very kindly offered to deliver the car to
me (65 miles away) free of charge and even with a full tank of fuel !!! The car was delivered on the back of a truck by their lovely driver and in absolute pristine condition with all the relevant paperwork and documents in a folder.
Absolutely 100% recommend Cartec and would not hesitate to go back when I'm looking to change my car again. Just a
shame they aren't on my doorstep of I wouldn't hesitate to use them for MOT and service.
Thanks again Phil!

Phil Armstrong
*****
"Car went for an MOT, prompt service and an uncovered safety issue found and rectified, technician called to explain and that car can be sorted same day(even though they close early on a saturday) with a reasonable cost to rectify. Defective tyre was shown on collection and inside tyre wall was split which had been blown up prior to MOT due to a pressure warning light. Tyre seemed to be holding air with little signs of a slow puncture. Thanks for finding and ensuring my car was left safe."

Fantastic service. We recently purchased a used Rav4 from Cartec; they prepared the car quickly to accommodate our needs and when I noticed one or two minor issues (having driven the car for a few days) the service centre rectified them immediately (replacing the necessary parts) without argument. I cannot recommend the service centre in particular highly enough - outstanding customer service! They put Audi Newcastle to shame. We will definitely use Cartec again.

from watching a clip online of a potential car through the AA I was impressed with the quality of vehicle offered and the in depth explanation of the vehicle. From making the enquiry until pick up of the vehicle today which I must say exceeded expectations it was immaculate and better than what was described. I was dealt with in a professional non pushy manner, well done the team at cartec. Pick up of the vehicle was slick and smooth, the service was first class.

This company went above and beyond for the delivery of my new car. It arrived with bows and a bunch of flowers they arranged on behalf of my husband. The guys at the garage have always been so helpful and accomodating. We might live 4 hours away but for this kind of service I will definitely be checking here first for any future cars. Update: just found out from my husband he requested the bows but not the flowers, fantastic touch! Honestly brilliant customer service!!

Ciausu Vlad

Just had a diagnostic and a major service with them. Very professional and quick to identify the problem with the car, and very fair in telling me what's wrong with it.

Although i asked about other possible problems (identified as advisory by a less honest garage in the past), they checked them out and reassured there is nothing to fix now, so I am confident to say they run a fair business.

Also, had to replace back tyres, and they were happy to fit them in the front, and have the front ones fit to the back (FWD car) at no extra cost.

Overall, very happy with them and i would recommend!

The guy's here are good bunch, they will always try and help you and go the extra mile no matter how busy they are. We have used 'Cartec' now for around 4 years and don't see any reason to go anywhere else honest reliable and straight talking. We have used Cartec for both our private and business vehicles.
Oliver
"Brilliant "
Right i was always worried to get ripped off by garages. But they didn't!!!! They did only the work that was needed nothing else and advised me on work that needed to be done in the future. They picked up my car and dropped it off i really didn't need to do anything. I would go back to them no where else and if you looking for a honest garage go there!!!!!
Rob
"Excellent"
Really happy with the MOT and fix to a slow puncture that other garages tried but failed to fix.
Steven
"Quality work and service"
Booked in for a full service and MOT, with a few other issues that needed sorting. Car was collected at 8:15am from my home, communication was excellent and the quoted prices for the extra work were very competitive. They delivered the car at 4:15pm and it feels like brand new, quality workmanship and all round excellent service. I will definitely be returning and recommending to friends and family. Cheers guys

Wendy Wardle

Cartec is friendly, honest and professional. They took time to explain things. My car (which is still under warranty) went in for a service and I was confident that only manufacturer's parts would be used so the warranty is still valid. The overall cost was significantly cheaper than the main dealer and I believe Cartec did a more thorough job. Highly recommended.
Ruth

First Class Service again.! Following a breakdown in my van, the guys at Cartec organised both the recovery of my vehicle and a courtesy van which allowed me to continue with my work. As I was planning on purchasing a replacement, Cartec were able to source the exact van at a great price for me. I've now got a great van and peace of mind along with the exceptional service I always receive. Personally I wouldn't look anywhere else for another or take anywhere else for maintenance. Can't thank these guys enough. These are testing times for all but knowing that a company still care for their customers and go above and beyond is very reassuring.

We have recently bought a car from cartec. Due to social distancing etc, things aren't as easy as usual. Marc was the salesman we dealt with, he was very helpful and professional, making sure we were safe and cleaned everything down as we went. We noticed the back tyre had a slow puncture when we got it home, rang them up and no problem took car in and sorted it. I would definitely recommend them after the service we have received.
Michael Smith

It's good to know that when we leave our cars at cartec we can trust that the work carried out is professionally done and at a fair price, they listen to what you say and keep you informed of any problems needless to say that we recommend this company for honesty and reliability.

I dealt with Jonny who was fantastic in speaking to me about the car I was interested in and was able to make arrangements for it to be delivered to be as soon as they were possible to. The car arrived exactly as what was stated in its description. It was gleaming clean and had all the paperwork needed! The car was delivered by Robert who was super friendly as well.

First class service from start to finish. Like most people I know nothing about cars. The guy explained everything to me in such a simplistic yet informative manner. Very friendly and constantly reassured me if I have any problems with the car even after the 28 days still give him a call. Whenever I look for cars Cartec will be the first place i look

From the start of entering the premises I felt very welcomed and made to feel as if I was the only person focussed on. I was never rushed and the salesman gave me plenty of time as well as plenty of information regarding car and the company. I would highly recommend this company to everyone wanting to get a new car

After trying to sell my car to other dealers and we buy any car i took my car here and gave my car a full appraisal unlike the others where they just looked around it. Really went into detail and took about 20 mins to come up with an offer after there inspection which i did not mind as i took the offer as it was better and all explained on how they got to the price. Even dropped me off at home !!!!!

After looking for a new car on the vroom car sales site in north shields i came across a stunning bmw convertible for my wife and the sales approach was very relaxed and very informative. Hats off to this approach as it was a breath of fresh air to be dealt with in this way.

So I had a recommendation to ring Cartec Motor Company and within an hour they had picked my car up from work. Really friendly people to deal with and gave me options of what I could do. I had my car back the next day all sorted and washed!! It's the attention to detail that makes these guys worth going to. Thanks again

Really good experience from these guys!!! I Initially phoned to ask about a ford fiesta they had for sale to use as a second car but unfortunately was sold. The sales guy then told me about some other cars they had in stock which was within my budget. I thought i would go along and have a look, i originally had a fiesta in mind because i had one before but once i was shown the other cars i settled on a really nice clean peugeot which i love. Thank you for all of your help!

What a great garage to deal with from sales to service. The salesman was in no way pushy and left us alone to have a good look over the car without feeling pressured, he then did a great deal on my old car and the service center had it turned around within a couple days for me to collect. Highly recommended.

Bought my car from these guys, what a fantastic service I received, the two sales lads (Quincy and Jonny) re-write the book on selling cars they assisted every step of the way without ever pushing me into a decision, I'm over the moon with my purchase, I cannot recommend Cartec enough

I can't fault this company at all. Right from the start, Quincy made the purchase of my new car a pleasure. There were no pushy salesmen but if you wanted help, you just had to ask.
After three weeks I had a major problem with my car, which they recovered. It was something that was not their fault and could not have been predicted. I was given the option of having that car fixed or choosing a new car. I chose to have a different car which was the other one I had liked initially. The could not have been more apologetic and sorry and made the whole situation a lot easier.
When I buy my next car, I will definitely be going back to Cartec.

After care is fabulous any problems are dealt with immediately with no hassle before I purchased the car when I was just looking I was not approached by the staff like some car sales men would to purchase a car from them I would definitely recommend cartec to anyone best customer service I have encountered in a very long time one happy customer I am

We bought a car from Cartec and the whole experience was a pleasure from start to finish, The Sales Person (Marc) was very knowledgeable and advised us on the type of car for a young driver, including insurance and running costs etc. My daughter took the car and was overjoyed. 3 days later the exhaust fell off the car, this can happen at anytime especially with some of the larger speed bumps around, so I couldn't fault Cartec for that. However they arranged for the car to be picked up, and a new exhaust fitted free of charge. You simply could not have asked for anymore. I can also endorse their garage services as well, all of my family and some friends use their garage, and they have always been fair and not expensive. Well done Cartec, just keep on doing what you are doing.

I've just bought a mini from cartec and can honestly say that th service these guys give is excellent, after buying cars from main dealers in the past it's refreshing to have genuine helpful people.
Johnny and Quincy where both excellent - I pick the car up,on Wednesday and am sure all will be spot on upon my collection. I've dealt with cartec on numerous other occasions and have never had cause to complain. Big thumbs up from me.

Cartec had the exact car I was looking for and the buying experience was one of the best. No nonsense, helpful & very pleasant sales team. However, it's the after sales response I received which merits this review. I'd discussed a problem with my car with a very helpful and knowledgeable member of their workshop team. His suggestion of using premium grade diesel fuel 'seemed' to improve the problem, however within a couple of weeks it returned with a vengence. A telephone discussion resulted in me returning the car for a detailed diagnostic check. The staff were incredibly attentive, professional and efficient and identified two faults very quickly and parts were ordered to effect repairs. In addition, a problem with the front brake discs was noticed and repaired also. I was provided with a free courtesy car, kept fully informed on a regular basis & when my car was ready for collection it had been fully valeted and looked pristine. First class service from a first rate team.

Hi, absolutely love my golfGTD which I purchased from here, at a very reasonable price. The service was excellent. Staff were very polite and got a very good price for my trade in. My engine light come on after 3 month, I got in touch with them and they booked me in the next day, I left it with them and it was fixed the same day, so glad I purchased a warranty as it didn't cost me a penny. Would definitely recommend Cartec and will be buying my next car from them.

I own a landrover discovery 3. Which is on its second set of E G R valves which cost over £500 a pair plus labour charge to fit. The vehicle goes into limp mode and is very dangerous to drive. I took the disco to Cartec for them to check it over to make sure it was the valves. They plunged it into their fault code machine and it came up with E G R fault codes. Thinking the worst they suggested cleaning out the E G R valves with a new machine they were thinking of purchasing. I am pleased to say we have driven over 1500 miles with out any faults. And the disco is running the best it's ever been. When we book our disco in for its survice we will also book it in for another clean out of the valves to keep on top of them. A big thanks to all at Cartec for saving us a small fortune

We have had our new car for the past week with absolutely no problems.
From choosing our car to driving it home the whole experience was fantastic.
We turned up thinking of changing from our civic which was still under finance but because of the great part ex value we were given this enabled us to upgrade our car to an outlander.
Our salesman was David who made sure we where completely confident with the car before we signed anything was great, we where taken on a test drive which I could take anywhere rather than a planned route which alot of dealers have (this is usually a ploy to stay on the smoothest roads possible) during the test drive I noticed a couple of things that needed doing to get the car perfect and was assured this would all be done by the time I picked it up.
Upon looking around the car and paperwork I picked up a couple of other things which again wasn't a problem for this garage (mudflaps needed resealing and a tyre needed a slow puncture repair).
I think for me the biggest thing was the timing belt was due to be done and once I mentioned this to my surprise I was told this would be done within the service carried out pre delivery which true to there word it was, also stamed and sighned the service book to confirm.
The pre delivery work included the niggles I had found a full service including timing belt and water pump and an mot also as they where doing these checks they came across a few things themselves which didn't NEED to be done (ball joint track rod end two new front tyre and rear breaks) but they done them as they weren't up to the standard they have set for themselves. My car also came with a 12 month warranty and 12 month AA breakdown cover with free MOTs for the time I have the car so all in all an absolute brilliant experience and a massive thank you to all the guys at cartech.

Now the warranty I thankfully haven't had to use but if I do as always I will update this post and add a new one but if it is half as good as the sales it is only going to be good

Recently bought a car from Cartec Motor Company and was really chuffed with the service. Arrived on the day, was shown the car and the deal went through as planned. The lads in the saleroom were really welcoming and even sorted out the tax on the new vehicle for me. Would definitely recommend as are reliable and consistent with their co operative communication.

I approached Cartec after being advised the lease of my current car was ending a lot sooner than I expected. I had 4 weeks to find a new car! I walked in and walked out the same day with an amazing BMW at an affordable rate, and it was ready to be picked up within the week! Plus I can just pop in or ring up if I need any help or have any questions! Couldnt thank the lads at Cartec enough for all their help! Would definitely recommend Cartec to anybody!!

I went to Cartec showroom at Vroom with a view to exchanging my old vehicle for a newer model. I walked into the showroom and was warmly welcomed and invited to view the cars on the forecourt. There was no pressure but I was informed that if I required any information it would be readily supplied. There were several models but with their advice I opted for a SEAT IBIZA. I was given an excellent exchange value for my old car and purchased my new car. The after sales service has been excellent from very friendly staff. I would definitely go back to Cartec when I need to change again.

I recently bought a BMW M3 from Cartec Motor Company and my experience was really good from start to finish, they were recommended by a friend of mine, who had bought cars previously and uses their on site garage for m.o.t's etc....I dealt with Mark who was down to earth and honest...I never once felt preasurised into the purchase, like I have with other car dealers in the past. They were just genuinely helpful...my car is amazing runs like a dream and I will definitely use them again in the future and recommend them to my pals too

At first i was a bit apprehensive about buying a car from a used car dealer as i have always bought my previous cars from a main dealer and mostly new. On arriving at the garage to view there Ford Fiesta i was pleasantly greeted and was shown the car then the sales guy left me to view at my leisure whilst he went back inside to get all the documents for me to look at . The Fiesta was very well presented and in really good order, i went back inside to have a good look through all the documents they had including checking how many owners the car had on the log book and a look through its service book. Everything being in order i asked about the possibility of having a drive of the car which i did and again everything was fine so we sat down and i agreed to purchase the Fiesta at a very good price. I waited 2 weeks before doing this review just to make sure everything was fine and things have been great and i have been very impressed in their manner towards everything. Well done
