STAY AWAY!!!!!!
This dealership sells rebuilds and cars that have been in severe accidents. Please exercise EXTREME caution when purchasing a vehicle from them. I bought a car from them in April24, they said it was in a very small fender bender. When I turned the aircon on, there were glass shards flying in my face. When I took it for my own roadworthy, the vehicle was not even roadworthy and had chassis and steering column damage, one tyre was not even the right size, it was a complete rebuild with body putty everywhere. I called Dekra to get a copy of the original Dekra report, and the Dekra report received from the dealership was a falsified report with more than half the damages removed from the copy they gave me. I eventually got a refund after an almost 6 month battle with them, and involving the Ombudsman and the NCC, and contacting a law firm for advice. They claim they did not know, and placed all the blame on a supposed staff member that they supposedly fired afterwards. The onus is on them to make sure the vehicles they sell is of the quality and state of repair that they claim it to be. If you check their Google reviews, they have done this to many other people in the past, and not all were as lucky as me to get (most of) my money back. DO NOT BUY FROM THESE GUYS!!!!! Car in question is a Silver 2022 VW Polo 1.4 Trendline with 34000km's on the clock. Please email me for more info if you need, jontywd@gmail.com.

Car sales ****
All their cars were involved in major and minor accidents, they have tempered with their car mileage and the worse part they can reverse the mileage with over 100 000km, I will never advise anyone to purchase a car there. Do a thorough inspection before taking any deal and alway verify the car mileage with the dealer. Always call VW, BMW and Audi to verify.

Beetle Blues: Navigating the Turbulent Road with Auto Champions
Dear Auto Champions Management, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction and frustration regarding the 2015 Red VW Beetle I purchased from your dealership on December 22, 2023, with financing through MFC. Since the purchase, the vehicle has presented significant issues, leading to multiple breakdowns and substantial inconvenience on my part. The troubles began around January 15, 2024, when warning lights illuminated, resulting in the car losing power and ultimately shutting off while in operation. Understandably concerned, I promptly contacted Auto Champions for assistance with the necessary repairs. I appreciate the swift response and assistance provided by Thapelo Ledwaba, which enabled me to resume driving. However, the respite was short-lived. As soon as mid-March 2024, the vehicle experienced another breakdown while in motion. Following this incident, the car was towed to VW for diagnosis, the details of which are attached for your reference. Subsequently, we shared the diagnosis with Thapelo on April 3, 2024, in the hope of receiving assistance in resolving the gearbox and CV joint issues, which I believe should have been identified during the roadworthy assessment conducted prior to purchase. Regrettably, despite my earnest efforts and repeated attempts to seek resolution, I have been left waiting for over two weeks without any concrete progress towards resolving the aforementioned issues. I must dispute the fact that we've been waiting on the dealership for over 2 weeks; the car has been broken for over 6 weeks, thus causing major financial loss and distress. This prolonged delay has caused significant inconvenience and financial loss, as I have been unable to utilize the vehicle for essential tasks, including work commitments. My partner, Ntandose, has been particularly impacted, as the inability to access reliable transportation has hindered her ability to fulfil work obligations, resulting in substantial financial strain. I implore you to recognise the urgency and severity of the situation and take immediate action to rectify the defects and deficiencies present in the vehicle. Given the recurring nature of the issues and the potential safety hazards they pose, I believe it is imperative that Auto Champions assumes responsibility for the necessary repairs and compensates for the inconvenience and financial losses incurred as a result of these persistent mechanical failures. I kindly request a prompt response outlining the steps you intend to take to address this matter and restore confidence in the integrity of your dealership. I trust that you will prioritise customer satisfaction and strive to uphold the standards of excellence synonymous with the Auto Champions brand. Feel free to request any communication/emails to prove the aforementioned and the fact that the warranty is only willing to cover a portion of the claim as communicated to Thapelo (with evidence). I hope this issue will be resolved this week before we take further actions.

Scammers.
These guys are scammers almost fell into their trap fortunately I had a friend with me who saw the red flags. It is also very strange that on Hello Peter the five people who gave them ratings above 4 only started being active in Oct 2022. I think they wrote these reviews themselves
