Review of the Car Finance 247, Car finance:

Car Finance 247 sold me a death trap and charged me...

Car Finance 247 sold me a death trap and charged me a fortune for the privilege. That is not an exaggeration, it is exactly what happened. I was told I could only buy the car as shown on the app, and I trusted that this company actually vetted the dealers it puts customers in front of. That trust was completely misplaced. On top of everything else, they charged me roughly three times what this car is actually worth on the open market, a wildly inflated price for a vehicle that turned out to be a rotted wreck. Less than three weeks later the exhaust pipe fell off while I was driving. A garage put it on a ramp and what they found was horrifying: the entire underside rotted out. Exhaust rusted straight through, both boxes gone. The subframe and structural underbody panels are so corroded there is a hole in one of them. Rusted suspension, perished bushings, a split CV boot. This car should never have been on the road, let alone sold to a paying customer as if it were fine. I have already been forced to spend £481.32 just to make it driveable, and the bill is still climbing, a bill on top of a purchase price that was already triple the market value. This is not a minor fault or bad luck, this is a company charging inflated prices for unroadworthy, dangerous vehicles and washing their hands of it. Whatever "vetting" Car Finance 247 claims to do is clearly worthless, and I dread to think what could have happened if that corrosion had failed at speed with my family in the car. Do NOT use Car Finance 247. Do not trust their app, do not trust their dealers. They overcharged me massively and put me in a rusted, unsafe wreck. Genuinely one of the worst experiences I have ever had. Reviewed on: 10th August 2026
