nothing like I expected

Review of 305 CLASSICS by Larry Ashford · November 19, 2024

1/5

I drove over after confirming that a vehicle was available and ready to view. When I arrived, the car was boxed in, dusty, and could not be taken for a proper test drive. I also noticed several issues that had not been mentioned during my call. The person helping me seemed more interested in discussing financing than answering basic questions about the engine, title, and prior repairs. After I left, I was told someone would follow up with additional records, but I never received them. Buying an older car already involves risk, and this experience did not give me any confidence. I wasted a trip and would not return.

    honest about an older car

    What impressed me most was that they did not pretend the car was perfect. The salesperson pointed out a small paint repair and an interior switch that worked intermittently before I even noticed them. That honesty made me much more comfortable moving forward. I brought someone knowledgeable with me, and we were allowed to spend plenty of time checking everything without pressure. The numbers were explained clearly, and there were no surprise additions when I sat down to sign. Pickup was easy, with the car fueled and cleaned. I have already put several weekend drives on it and am very happy with how it runs. A refreshingly straightforward purchase.

    no pressure at all

    I appreciated being able to look over the car at my own pace. The salesperson knew its history, pointed out a few imperfections, and never pushed me. The purchase was straightforward from beginning to end.

    worth the drive

    I had a great experience shopping here. The staff gave me time to inspect the car without hovering, answered my questions directly, and arranged a relaxed test drive. The paperwork was explained clearly and moved along faster than expected. My classic arrived clean, started right up, and has been a blast to own.

    great help from start to finish

    I contacted the dealership with a lot of questions because this was my first classic car purchase. They were patient about explaining what was original, what had been replaced, and what maintenance I should plan for. When I visited, the vehicle was ready to inspect and matched the photos I had received. I was able to take a meaningful test drive rather than a quick trip around the block. The paperwork was clear, and nobody tried to rush me into extra products. After the sale, they followed up to make sure I had received the spare keys and documents. I felt well taken care of and would gladly shop here again.
