any thoughts on this dealer please ?
considering trading in my Evoque for an early D3 around the 10k mark to use as an everyday car and a weekend getaway light expedition type and these guys at Pennine always seem to have a good selection to choose from.
anyone got any advice on the dealers? good? bad? over priced?

thanks for the links everyone and comments, interesting reading on the LR forum thread as 4/5 seem to have had nightmare dealings with Pennine, and having been through it before with a D2 I bought which resulted in the finance reluctantly getting involved its not an experience I want to repeat.
I for one will steer clear of them and keep mulling over the idea of a D3/4

I would not buy a car from anywhere that has "Bradford" ib rge address.
I am not being funny, but there is no end of bad reviews from a whole raft of dealers in the area.

Had a customer buy a car from there in December
That car is on its way back, with an going legal dispute over £4.5k of repairs...
Customer was told he had signed the handover form stating he had accepted the vehicle with defective brakes and defective turbos
yep ill willingly sign for a 3ton car that has dodgy brakes and needs new turbos.....
it just seems to be a raft of horror stories about them, which is a shame as on the face of it they have decent stock of all brands.

They bought my D3 off me. No trade in just a straight sale. Didn’t tell me he was a trader and he wanted the car for himself. Next thing is it’s on their forecourt with a £4K mark up. I was happy with the price I got just not happy with the deception.D4 MY15 SE TECH

I looked at buying a D3 from Pennine Autos a couple of years ago until I read horror stories on here and elsewhere on the internet, decided to stay well clear in the end.General Grabber AT3's
