fuck that, no way.

well, if you REALLY know about motors or incredibly lucky you can pick up a bargain as theyve let some cars go way cheaper than they worth as theyve known no better, but generally, they shitboxes.

I went down with my mate to have a look at an RX7 supposedly running 500bhp.

What a pile of dogshit.

We waited 30 mins before someone spoke to us, they were rude, knew nothing about the cars and when i had a glance over the car it was fucked.

Avoid. Avoid a lot...

We once called in on the way to leeds from merseyside on the way to the football at elland rd Only called as the used to have a couple of escort cossys in still do at cheap prices but they were ignorant as fuck and the cars were well fucking dodgy one imperticular escoss had no vin tag and the floor number was removed and plated with an old mot certificate saying it had failed there on welding The rest of the floor and sills were spotless Think it was run by asians last i heard it got raided for stolen cars thus changing names and premises id avoid at all costs or take an AA inspection out on the car you were viewing

that does not suprise me in the least. a lad not far from ours had a L reg wrx from them, he paid for it and the fellas said they would deliver it to liverpool, when he got there to pick it up, the turbo timer,was missing as was the 17inch kei alloys they were replaced with std 16's.

as soon as you mention the name 'Keighly Trade Centre' to a Jap owner, they become horrified and run a mile!!

Im a Jap Car owner and all i can say is AVOID AVOID AVOID! Never buy anything from Keighly Trade Centre! Not even if the price is good! You get what you pay for!!
