Volvo 100 point check is not worth the paper is written on!
Purchased a car from NMG - second hand car dealership 1 block away from Volvo Bryanston on the basis that Volvo Bryanston gave this car a 100 point check and gave this car the green light. From day 1 I had the following issues. - Auto wipers malfunction - Auto lights malfunction - Drivers seat belt clip faulty - Front right tire misaligned Car was taken back to Volvo 6 times in 8 weeks. Was assured by Volvo (workshop manager - Vic) on the second return visit that this car has not been involved in an accident and that the previous owner most likely just hit a pothole and therefor the reason for the replacement of the front shock. 2 months later, I tried to sell the car as I was having endless issues with it and it was pointed out to me by the potential buyer that most of the car was resprayed, that it seemed like the airbags had been deployed and replaced, both front shocks had been replaced, almost every bolt on the engine had been worked on, the bonnet was not the original etc. Volvo Bryanston says their 100 point check is only a visual inspection - based on the above it doesnt seem like they even looked at this car. On the day I returned the car to NMG - the dealer I bought this from - I took it back to Volvo Bryanston to ask them to verify the comments of the potential buyer I had, and Nick, the service representative confirmed that all the claims from the potential buyer were accurate and that this car definitely had issues and he wasnt sure how these issues were not picked up previously. I have sent 2 requests through to the DP at Volvo Bryanston and I have yet to have any response from them

Accident free car ends up being a total lie!!!
Bought a car from NMG on Main Rd Bryanston. Was assured by the sales person that this car was accident free. Had endless issues with this car over a 2 month period - starting with my drive home on the day I bought it where the auto windscreen wipers and auto lights both came up with malfunction issues with 1 hour of owning the car. Car was taken back to the dealer and Volvo6 times in 8 weeks. Issues from electronics not working, seatbelt clip faulty, front wheel not aligned. Eventually tried to sell the car and was informed by another dealer that the entire car was resprayed, that the amount of work done on the engine and front section of the car was not normal for a car that only had 28,000km on the clock. Turns out both left and right were replaced and showed major damage. Bonnet was not original. Greg, the owner of the business disputed any claims of this car been involved in an accident. Eventually took the car back but refused to cancel the deal so I ended up out of pocket to the tune of roughly 30k. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND.
