Renault Twingo 2015 - DYNAMIQUE ENERGY TCE S/S FREE ROAD TAX. FSH 5-Door

Cautionary Experience – Please Read Before Purchasing I don’t usually leave negative reviews, but I feel a responsibility to share my experience in the hope that it helps others make a more informed decision. I purchased a used car from GC Car Sales in November. Within just a week, the car overheated on the motorway, leaving me in a very unsafe situation and causing me to miss a concert I’d been looking forward to for months. To their credit, GC Car Sales were initially helpful and took the car back to carry out repairs. However, this was only the beginning of an ongoing and incredibly stressful situation. Over the following months, the car continued to present serious issues that suggested deeper, undisclosed problems. There were several bodywork faults I hadn’t been informed about prior to the sale – including a misaligned passenger door and a bonnet that didn’t sit flush. The car was sold as HPI clear and was not listed as a CAT D or CAT S. However, a retired insurance assessor later informed me that the car appeared to have been in a serious accident and hadn’t been properly repaired. While it’s possible the dealership wasn’t aware of the full extent of the damage, I find it difficult to believe they wouldn’t have noticed such obvious flaws, given their experience with vehicles. GC did attempt to repair the car twice, but unfortunately, both times the issues returned almost immediately. They also suggested I was responsible for draining the battery by leaving lights on — despite telling me the battery was healthy and despite the car having automatic systems that prevent lights from staying on when locked. I know I hadn’t left anything running, so this added even more frustration to an already difficult situation. Throughout this period, I experienced considerable stress and anxiety. I had to borrow my grandma’s car just to get to work, putting her out and further highlighting how unreliable my own vehicle had become. Eventually, I had no choice but to sell the car at a significant loss — nearly half of what I initially paid — as it was difficult to find a buyer due to the ongoing problems. I’ve never been so relieved to see a car go, and I genuinely hope the new owner manages to get it into better shape, or manages to break it for parts — at least they were fully informed of its issues, which I wasn’t afforded. In hindsight, I blame myself and I wish I’d taken someone knowledgeable with me when buying the car and had a more thorough inspection done before purchasing. This review isn’t written out of spite — I just hope it helps others avoid going through the same experience I did.
