You have to pay a "donation" of $2 to test drive a car. I did that when I was checking a car out for my father-in-law and then the car broke down 2km's away. Couldn't ring them up as their phone number was unlisted (dodgy) so I had to walk back in the rain. I wasn't impressed.

I went there, found them totally unhelpful, wanted to drive a car & stood in their reception for what seemed like forever while they chased around after some old chook who you could tell wasnt going to buy a bloody thing & only wanted to kill some time before Maggie Barry, Susan Boyle or the news came on TV. Walked out & on the way home drove past Ezibuy, called in, drove out 10 minutes later to pick up the missus so we could come back to collect up our new car

I bought a car from them nearly 2 years ago. I checked it out, bought it and did the few things it needed. Its been fine. It does sound like their reputation has headed south though.

As an ex dealer I can confirm that mosts repos are in rough condition. Owners don't give a toss when they know that at some point the car is going to be picked up. You can bet on it that if it looks rough, then be safe to say it probably never been serviced either.

I looked at a Mazda 6 Limited they had advertised. Describer with the usual "took for a short drive." in the ad, so thought that any issues would be minor. Poorly repaired guard (looked like it had been painted with a brush) and there was a rear wheel bearing that was shot. The wheel bearing was as obvious as dog testicles, so I think they should stop getting Helen Keller to check the cars for them.

Joke; what happened to Helen Keller when she fell down the well! She screamed her gloves off!

How about: how did HK burn her fingers! Trying to read the toasted sandwich maker.
