Very good people on fame cars and they are very trustworthy

Very trusted used car sales in Birmingham we purchased our second car from them and they been very helpful

Terrible dealership , sold me a car , within a week of having the car the turbo is gone , I call to return the car given to reviews here and they tried to tell me it was fault and I unplugged everything ? I travelled 150 miles to buy the car bearing in mind, they now blocked my number and when I did call shouted abuse and even threatened me , please stay away for your own sake I beg cos I now have to pay 2500 for a repair beacuse of they sell cars that are fault and they know that and refuse to deal with it

bought a Renault Megane on 03/04/2026 the car was delivered on a low loader after they delivered I switch the engine on service's light light came the smell of oil was pungent from exhaust it came with a 12 month mot driving to the garage smoke was bellowing out of exhaust other car behind me had to slow down as they could not see I told the mechanic he Sade he would have a good look after a good wile he shook his head he could not believe hit just bast a mot the breaks were dangerous and lot of other dangers a lot of electrical problems air bags wont work if there ware accident I was told not to drive the car as it was to dangerous to drive. When I got in touch with Fame cars ltd i was fobbed off told to pound sand and I would not be getting my money back I have reported this.
the mot is called a ghost mot as the car is not present when the test was dun

to drive on the road when I reported this to Fame cars ltd th

I purchased a Peugeot 2008 PureTech from Fame Cars Ltd in early December 2025 for £7,350. Just three weeks later the engine developed faults with warning lights. I called the company to report the problem but was told that it was a mere electronic glitch and that for the car to drive successfully from his garage in Birmingham to my place in Scotland, it was a good car and that I should give him a good online review.

Again, on Jan 25th 2026, the same engine warning lights came up indicating a serious fault and advising that the car is undriveable. An independent mechanic’s report clearly showed metal debris in the oil strainer, slack oil pump chain with metal chunks, metal shavings in the filter, and bearing damage, pointing to a full engine replacement. From that moment, dealing with Fame Cars became an absolute nightmare.

The owner lied about the warranty, first claiming it was only 1 month when we had agreed on 6 months.

Then he repeatedly denied the fault was an engine issue, dismissing it as “just a wet belt” despite the independent diagnostic report I sent him.

I rejected the car under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and returned it to the dealer in Birmingham on 6 February 2026 via transporter. He confirmed receipt.

When I called to discuss my right to a full refund, he became rude, cut the call short, and threatened to block me. He even claimed on one occasion that I had been speaking to his brother, not him. Due to his rudeness and evasive attitude, I stopped calling him and resorted to sending mails by post with recorded delivery

After months of formal letters and emails,
he finally offered only £6,900 — refusing to refund the extra £741.79 I had spent on diagnostics and transporting the car back from Scotland to Birmingham. Total loss to me: £1,191.97. Out of frustration, emotional stress, and endless delays, I reluctantly accepted the reduced amount. He then started yet another round of games by refusing to commit to a payment date — this was already two months after he had received the car.

I have now notified the DVLA that the vehicle has been transferred to him as a motor trader. Despite this, Mr Mohammad Waqas is still insisting I send the physical V5C log book by recorded delivery before he releases my money. Who does that? He has the car and also want the V5C but refuses to refund.

I am deeply concerned that if I send the V5C first, he will not pay me at all, given his consistent pattern of lies, evasion, and never standing by his word.

This has been one of the most stressful and dishonest experiences I have ever had buying a used car. The owner’s behaviour has been evasive, unprofessional, and lacking any integrity.

I strongly advise everyone to avoid Fame Cars Ltd completely. If anything goes wrong with your purchase, you will not get fair or honest treatment. Save yourself the headache and the financial loss.

Bought a VW Lupo for my daughter from these scoundrels. Came with an MOT. Broke down every month until the second MOT, which of course it failed completely.
Garage said it's impossible it would have been given an MOT in the first place, even a year previously.
Had to sell it for scrap. Thousands down the drain.

I purchased a VW beetle for 7k on March 16th, by the 25th the car had broken down. I got a local mechanic to diagnose the fault and it came back with a throttle body code which the mechanic suggested had already been deleted therefore was a known fault at point of sale. I would like to point out that the car broke down after NINE DAYS. I was still within the standard 30 day warranty etc therefore well within my rights to get it sorted free of charge. I rang the garage and explained the situation and from day dot have had nothing but aggro and the most disgusting customer service I have ever experienced in my life. The garage first tried to charge me £140 to recover the car and said they will repair it for free out of goodwill(!) They claimed that because I am using the car for work I no longer am within my rights, I would like to point out this car was bought in full and nothing was signed to say what the car would be used for. They quickly changed their tune when I mentioned the motor ombudsman and reporting them to yes we will pick the car up for free and fix it free of charge.

The day of repair is Friday after hearing nothing on Thursday. I messaged at 1pm asking for an update and was told I’ll be messaged when the car is sorted. 5:30 came round so I messaged to ask and all of a sudden the car was ready. I asked for a phone call to clarify what had been fixed and I was told by one of their staff members she didn’t know but then all of a sudden she said the rev pedal. I said I thought it was the throttle body, the boss then snatches the phone shouting saying we’ve done this for you for free and you’re still complaining as if they had did me a favour fixing THEIR mistake. He wouldn’t even let me get a word in edge ways. He then said you’re not getting the car and you’re not getting your money back either so you can go to court.

This is a warning to everyone buying a new car AVOID THESE PEOPLE AT ALL COSTS. I am now out 7k and I no longer am in possession of the car as they are refusing to give it back despite having the new keeper slip and the receipt. Unless you want to be completely mugged off and disrespected I would avoid these dodgy people at all costs!!!! I will be taking this further and reporting these people to the motor ombudsman but please do not give these people your money unless you want the aggro and stress that I have had to deal with over the last week. They were so quick to take our money but when it came to fixing THEIR problems they did not wanna communicate and the service was absolutely appalling throughout the whole experience. It really has drained me, I’ve had no apology, no offer of a courtesy car and not one bit of help or compassion from these people, they even had the nerve to be so arrogant to say give us the car back and we will resell it!

After doing further research, this company has had several directors in the last 5 years, all their cars come from auction and are put into the forecourt without repairs and checks and their “long MOTs” are all fake! Disgusting behaviour - avoid before you have to learn the hard way like I have

Customer service was excellent, they allowed us enough time to check the vehicle answered all questions we asked, after that we went on test drive. The car drove well as expected to be. Few bodywork issues which you can expect as it old car, with age not a brand new car and for the price we paid. Overall really good experience. Thanks fame cars ltd. Recommended.

I will be taking this as high as possible and I would appreciate any advice as this experience has been the worst car experience I have ever had in my life to the point of tears.

Was on time talk about taxi fares all the way to airport Was a bit of pervert looking at the missus not impressed big boy hummer talked about

Vile Company bought a car from them 21 days later engine has blown up. Dropped car back since then No contact. Now going to small claims.
Keep well away. This company then demanded
£1,000.00 to put the car right. Luckily enough I went to my Bank, as advised by Citizens Advice. They then got my money back.

Please avoid using them , i went in Birmingham to their place i see 2 cars bmw q2 and seat altea . i scan with OBd2 the bmw problem woth PDf , i bought seat altea from them 5 days drive and the car needed clutch. I call them for the car they dont cover that . even if they say you have warranty , they lie , no warranty at all. Scam avoid

Unfortunately after a car fire I was desperate to source another car - otherwise I probably would have walked away mid viewing based on the none existent customer service.
Refused to allow me to test drive more than one - huge inconvenience for them despite me looking at spending £6500+?
Presented me with paperwork saying discs and break pads changed -
I’m just about to fork out on rear brakes that are currently metal on metal…. So definitely we’re not changed.
In addition, following a service at my local garage, they identified car has no prop shaft yet was sold as 4x4…
Still waiting on log book 7 weeks after purchase.

Avoid with all cost. They said you have 3 months warranty when you buy from them but then they said you have to pay extra.

There practices are illegal but when they have your money, you have no choice but to follow what they say. Sold me a car which lost all power on the drive home from the dealer. They diagnosed and fixed the problem but I didn't want the car back. We were stuck in Coventry for the evening and basically stranded with my wife and 4 year old.

Then they have the balls to deduct £200 from my refund because we didn't keep the car. Honestly the worst experience I have had buying anything in life and these are the people that give Birmingham a bad reputation. I am in the process of taking legal action to recoup my £200 plus further compensation for the experience and illegal practices

They are not the best, but they are not the worst. I chose to buy online and have the car delivered. So my fault some bodywork not perfect but the cars 10years and big mileage. But it was delivered quickly and very polite guy. Having to wait for log book but pleased with deal running well. Thanks Ali. John kimber peogout2008

awful. very dodgy. I know it's hard to find any second hand car dealers these days that are honest - but truly avoid these guys, they are cowboys. read the reviews that are already on auto trader - and be warned! they are very cagey about details. soon as you start digging asking questions they will fob you off. they want to be able to FLOG cars, not sell them. they know theyre stuff is overpriced and mostly faulty, but they wont tell you you will have to find out the hard way (after you've driven it away). dont be fooled by the glossy pics. move on - find another garage -DONT use this one. it will hit you in the pocket hard.
