By far the best of the numerous dealers I visited this week. The cars were fairly priced, and in fantastic shape. Adam and Alex were so helpful, no hard sell whatsoever. Listening to what I wanted, and helping me through the process when I made decision. I am now the proud owner of a lovely ford focus which I fell in love with immediately. Thank you so much, would recommend to anyone (especially fellow ladies with not much clue about cars)

Thanks for your review Gillian, was great to meet you and Rebecca. Its reassuring to know we were top of the tree compared to our competitors, as we certainly strive to be. Glad you found the process simple and straight forward. Hope you are enjoying the Focus, hope to see you again soon! Thanks Alex.

Just bought my first car from Ataris Cars and I'm very pleased with it. Excellent customer service! Adam was very friendly and made me feel at ease right away, he was very helpful in explaining everything to me from how to find them to talking me through the paperwork. I felt very happy that I was under no pressure and able to take my time having a good look at the car by myself before feeling ready to test drive it. I was able to find the car that's right for me at a good price. I would definitely recommend buying a car from Ataris Cars!

Thanks for your review Lisa, really happy that you found a car that suited and found the process seamless. The first step into the world of motoring is the scariest and I am happy that you were comfortable with us. Wish you many years of happy motoring! Thanks Adam

By Georgina W on 08 March 2017 | Verified purchase

Being still relatively new to Manchester I was struggling to find a reputable second hand garage with cars within my budget. I had gone to view a car here that was not currently available and was recommended another while I was there. It ended up being the perfect fit for me and I came back for a test drive the following day and agreed sale the day after. There was no pressure from the team here and I liked that they did not try to sell me anything outside my budget. Adam was very helpful and went through all the paperwork with me and made everything so easy. Overall what sold me was that I felt confident that I was dealing with a reputable business and comfortable I could get in touch if anything went wrong. Great first experience of buying a car!

Thanks for your review Georgina, was good to meet you. I am really pleased that you felt comfortable and assured buying from us, as it can be a daunting process. Your 2 year slog on public transport means you will definitely appreciate your new wheels! Happy motoring, hope to see you again, thanks Adam

We were looking to replace my wifes car and having seen car we liked on the website we took a chance on just going on a very wet sunday. When we arrived we met Adam, a genuinely nice guy, unfortunately he had taken a deposit on the car we wanted the day before.We looked at another car, no pressure from Adam to buy, my wife liked it and we left a deposit and collected the car on monday. They have good selection of used cars to choose from and if you didn't want a particular model, which we did, there is something for everybody. A really pleasent buying experience, even if I ended up paying more than I wanted, got to keep the wife happy

Very impressed. What you see is what you get. Very professional and helpful knowledgeable staff. Was recommended by a friend and after a test drive, sorted paperwork and drove car home. All cars checked by dealer and website very informative. Thoroughly recommend.

Thanks for your kind words Eunan, was great to meet you after all the emails and happy for you the car was still available when you made it over! Glad you appreciate the effort we go to and hopefully you will recommend us on also (commission negotiable)! It was great to see you driving away within an hour of arriving, hopefully we shall see you again for another. Very much appreciate the kind words, thanks Adam

When we went to visit Ataris Cars we had been without a car for a few weeks and we were anxious to get a car the same day if possible. Having visited several other dealers that day with no luck, we didn't have high hopes for Ataris having what we wanted. We needn't have worried - there were several cars which suited our budget and our needs and after a few test drives we settled on a Ford Focus. Adam was extremely helpful but not pushy, and we drove our new car home the same day.

Thanks for your review Michelle, it was great to meet you both. Glad we had a range of cars which suited your requirements/budget and more importantly were able to drive away the same day. Hope parenthood is going well for you both and hopefully we shall see you again for a 7 seater! Thanks Adam
