We buy cars, we sell s****
I went to we buy cars and bought a car December 2025
Took the car for a test drive and it presented with no issues
There was some minor cosmetics of which i was fine with.
I had the car for about 2 months now and its presented with some major issues to the extend where i was stranded in the middle of a very busy road
And the issues coming up wont be presented in a short test driver.
*Overheating * Water Pipe bursting * Thermostat faulty * Radiator losing water * And upon further investigation the whole coil pack was damaged * Spark plug broken off and burned
And non of these items was disclosed on the advert neither to me upon purchasing of this vehicle.
They simply saw an opportunity to sell a vehicle and not sit with the hassles and responsibilities of a honest sale
pathetic service

Took the car for a test drive and it presented with no issues, there was no petrol in the car and they only gave 5 liters to test the car
There was some minor cosmetics of which i was fine with.
I had the car for about 2 months now and its presented with some major issues to the extend where i was stranded in the middle of a very busy road

*Overheating
* Water Pipe bursting
* Thermostat faulty
* Radiator losing water
* And upon further investigation the whole coil pack was damaged
* Spark plug broken off and burned
* Top Gasket blown due to over heating
* Engine light started to go on
I bought a car from We buy Cars that i thought was reliable, now i need to spend in the region of R30 000 to get the car fixed of which i dont have and on top of that the R90 000 of which i bought the car for.
And non of these items was disclosed on the advert neither to me upon purchasing of this vehicle.

We Buy Cars presented the car as top class, hiding away the problems
