Arrangements with Josh was fine. Details of the car advertised was not detailed enough. The hand-over process of the car was undesirable. A lot of improvements needed there!

You May Be Lucky
Placed a deposit on a Lexus RZ Takumi and drove 360 miles round trip from Scotland to Bishop Auckland for our test drive. The car had arrived on Monday, our appointment was Friday.
When we arrived it was sitting with the driver’s window cracked open, filthy with polish residue as if it had just come off the transporter. The tow point covers were on the passenger seat. I don’t think anyone at the dealership had touched it all week.
A quick inspection found bird dropping etching, poorly refurbished alloys with kerbing, an external door seal unseated, windscreen chips, and scratches on the paint.
A manager accepted the presentation was sub-standard, apologised, and offered to fix it and deliver. He then said it was a "cheap car" — basically "what did we expect".
You might get lucky with Carsa, but we weren’t. There was no quality control apparent, no one had checked the car before we arrived, and beyond a basic apology, no one seemed to care. Not acceptable for a £25k purchase
The only contact I’ve had since leaving the dealership is the generic email below. No call, no name, no specifics about my visit or the car. Just a template response that looks like it was written by AI.
When you’re spending £25k and travelling that distance, that level of aftercare tells you everything.
If you’re thinking of buying from Carsa, ask yourself if you want to roll the dice with a company that cares so little about its customers.

Dear William,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for choosing to visit Carsa Bishop Auckland. We’re sorry to hear that the condition and presentation of the Lexus did not meet your expectations, particularly after travelling such a considerable distance from Scotland for your appointment.
We appreciate how disappointing it must have been to make such a long journey and find the vehicle was not presented in the condition you expected. We’re also sorry that, despite the concerns being raised during your visit, you were left feeling that your experience and the presentation of the vehicle did not reflect the level of care you expected from Carsa.
We will look into the concerns you have raised internally, including the vehicle’s preparation and presentation, the points identified during your inspection and the communication you received from the branch.
Thank you again for considering Carsa and for bringing your experience to our attention. We’re sorry that on this occasion we were unable to provide the standard of experience you were expecting.
Best Regards,
The Carsa Team

Disappointing after service.
Disappointing after service.
Awaiting response for our vehicle, despite registering a complaint and getting told we'd have a response after 2 days, we are still awaiting said response, 3 weeks later.
No one answering the phone or calling back.
Think they are waiting for their 30 day obligation to expire.
Taking the car back.
Addition;
Now received a response stating reviewing their process. Getting more words, look forward to receiving some action before Tuesday 4th when it's coming back to the salesroom.

It was an ok experience- not brilliant
It was an ok experience- not brilliant. The guy that served us was nice and knew what he was doing. We got the usual push on over priced warranties which we didn’t take. We did get a decent car for a decent price. Which is what we went for.
We were not offered a drink or anything- fancy coffee machine all lit up in the corner- we asked for a drink and they said they had no beans 🤣🤣🤣

Misleading sales people
Sales person deliberately misleading people as they want commission on pcp deals. We did buy a car but because it wasn’t on his terms shocking service. Eyes were rolling because we didn’t go with what he wanted me to go with. Paid the £39 car transported to bishop and reserved, test drove and called them to say yes we want it but we’ll pay for it. Booked an appointment to find that the car was now back on sale before we even arrived to the appointment and they couldn’t find it when we l went. They said the car would be valeted before purchase but the same marks and bird muck was still on it from the day before. I would never uses these again
