About Carsa
Newly founded in 2020, we are looking to change how you can buy your car. With many dealers offering an online-only buying experience there are still millions of people who want to visit a sales forecourt to see a car, without being hassled by the conventional stereotypical salesperson that the people have grown to dislike.
At Carsa we have a firm belief that you should be able to visit a showroom in a hassle-free low-stress environment where the coffee is always hot, and the atmosphere is always vibrant. We are not here to make a quick sale and instead will work with you finding you the perfect car that will fit within your budget. We have a range of stock that is competitively priced using AutoTrader daily pricing data so you can be sure you are getting the car for the best price.
With the latest video-conferencing technology available the Specialists are always on hand to help when you have questions, and our showroom hosts are there on-site to ensure your experience is the best it can be. With sites in Southampton, Mountsorrel & Bradford we offer Click & Collect from these locations, but we also offer Home Delivery nationwide.
The knowledge of the team in car sales goes back over many decades so what they don’t know about cars is not worth knowing. With knowledge from franchise, independent and car supermarkets, our staff have a passion to help you find a car that is right for you and will make it an easy and enjoyable time. Don’t just take our word for it, our customers agree and have rated us excellent on here!

"Not to be trusted. Can't believe Car Dealers like this still exist. Tried to reserve a car but they would not do it because it was the last say of the month and some of the Salesmen had not reached their targets. Apparently a Reserved car is not a Sold car. Complained and was told some one would look into it and call back. Guess what ? no call. Avoid "

""Guys, when you go to that car showroom, forget about what they advertise on Gumtree, or Auto Trader, or any platform. Make sure you need to doublecheck every single thing because the might gives you wrong mileage, price, engine size, almost everything might not match. Be careful, they are not honest. I did ask them, why you don’t put the accurate informati..." Read more

"I am extremely disappointed with my experience. The customer service was notably arrogant, and the sales team seemed disinterested, even though I visited with the intention of purchasing a new car."

"Car was delivered with out floor mats and user manuals. When I contacted the team the response was very bad. Also while I was driving back to home in the motor ways the car steering was shivering not sure how safe is the drive that car. Not sure whether this car has been gone through 204 safety check. "

Later that day I realised I couldn't make the viewing so I went straight down to Bishop to rearrange the viewing for Saturday 24th, when I spoke wit..." Read more

Spent 5 hours on the phone, constantly cut off due to high volume of calls (strangely message always said you are No1 in queue). When did get through, was promised call when agent finished on phone,..." Read more

"Awful experience. Travelled from Annan to a booked appointment the staff (Aiden, Shannon and Katie) told me my appointment was probably with another branch as they didn't have a Kuga. I show them the confirmation and suddenly the Kuga exists and the appointment is fine. Decided to buy the car which was ex motability, not disclosed to us before we arrived...." Read more

Called again on Saturday to make sure car was at branch and that it would be ready. Was told it was. Went on Sunday and car was not at branch AND had been reserved by someone else and sold. Clearly bad internal communication. WOULD NOT..." Read more

The car was very dirty inside and the girl said that she'll send someone to give a good clean while I was signing the finance agreement...well that's never happen... Then I was convinced to change my delivery option to click and collect with a promise of a price knock off and a £50 fuel add on for the inconvenience that I..." Read more

"We saw a car on autotrader that said no admin fee. When we rang Carsa Loughborough office we were told £249 admin fee will be applied if purchase. Surely this is misadvertisement?"

"For their after sales service just 1*. I noticed very shortly after purchase that 2 of the tyres had a problem. I contacted the salesman who forwarded my emails to the manager. Despite several follow up emails I've not had any response. Very disappointing and I regret providing the 5* review at the point of sale."

"Sharp Trading practices at work at this shoddy car dealer! Left to fend ourselves - tyres not inflated properly - herded in and out of shabby sales office like sheep - bit of a conveyor belt type process where it feels like they only want the sale - will not be back ! Be warned - an extremely amateurish company, if this is the way they treat customers at th..." Read more

"I've consistently faced issues with this company and have been unable to reach customer service. Despite promises of callbacks, they never followed through. My experience with this company has been incredibly frustrating, and I strongly advise against buying a car from them. Their promises fell flat, and I found their treatment truly disgusting. I've never r..." Read more

"Ask for Katie to look after you when your looking for your car as she was great. Unfortunately she's about the best bit although the price for what we bought was good. They operate a "NO HAGGLE policy" from you to them....however not from them to you or the salesman we had Liam was either deaf or thick...explained to him I didn't have £20k in an instant ac..."

"Absolutely Awful. Let me drive away with a dodgy tyre, claiming it was normal, and meaning I had a big blow out on the motorway. There's a reason why these cars are below market value... I'd do your research and find another garage. The customer service is also appalling. I've had to pay out hundreds more to counteract the lack of checks and bad advice given..." Read more
