I ordered a bumper on the 6th and paid in full after being told it would be dispatched on the 9th and delivered on the 11th. After contacting the number provided, I was informed it had not been dispatched and was told to contact 1st Choice instead, which was unhelpful. I was also promised a tracking number that never arrived. The price was later increased from the original quote without proper explanation. Poor communication and delays have made this a very disappointing experience.

Faulty part. Waited almost 2 weeks to get the part only to get a defective part. Wanted to return as per guidelines. The seller hasn’t responded even after numerous emails

Here's a review you could use: --- **Rating: ★☆☆☆☆** I ordered a part 10 days ago and am still waiting for it to arrive. The service has been really disappointing. Communication has been lacking, and I expected a faster turnaround. I won't be ordering again unless this issue gets resolved.

I ordered an engine from this company after being told it would be delivered the next day. Four working days later, I had received nothing — no delivery, no update, and I was unable to get through to any phone number despite repeated attempts. After chasing, someone eventually replied to say delivery was actually 3–5 working days. By this point it was already day four, and I was then promised it would be dispatched the following day at the latest. Another three days passed with no communication whatsoever. When I finally got through to a woman on the phone, she promised to call me the next day to confirm delivery. That call never came. Two days later I rang again and spoke to a man who informed me she doesn’t even work that day. He then said there was an engine waiting to be dispatched and it could be mine, and again promised a call the next day. No call. I rang yet again and was then told that the engine was not mine after all, and that my engine had an oil fault and would now take a further two weeks to send. At this point I asked for the order to be cancelled and refunded — and unsurprisingly, I am still waiting for that refund. This entire experience has been incredibly costly. My work van has been off the road, forcing me to hire a replacement, and my garage rearranged work while waiting for an engine that never arrived. The lack of communication, conflicting information, broken promises and failure to refund is completely unacceptable. Avoid this company. I would not recommend them to anyone.

I purchased two doors from Oldham salvage/ Fords 4 U via their site, unfortunately the seller failed to inform one of the doors was damaged. The seller agreed for me to return the door and refund me the full cost of purchase. The seller has failed to refund me and has made multiple excuses not to pay, it is a very stressful and disappointing experience.

We waited 3 weeks for our part. Confirmed that they had the correct part, we exchanged multiple emails. Only to be told 3 weeks later that they have lost the part. We have our car repair delayed by 3 weeks just because of incompetency of these people. Look elsewhere if you can.
