What's happened to them since they went bust? The website's still there and working, and cars are still advertised for sale, but I'm not sure who's running the website now.

Anyone know?

 

Just I'm looking for a car and searched their website and found a few which are interesting, but the same cars are also on Autotrader as well which got me thinking.

I found this;

 

"The Carcraft brand is now owned by the Rix brothers Reg & Louis Rix who also own Carfinance247" (**Convenient**)

Yep, reading further down on their front page it explains a little more, albeit with an emphasis on selling finance before you go visit the dealers.

Their whole business model is aimed at selling vehicles to those with less than ideal credit ratings.

 

Far better deals to be had elsewhere if you have the money.

That's Carcraft as they were before they went bust last year. Carcraft as they are now is a different issue, hence the question.

Carfinance 247 are no different.

Carcraft is now just a website showing selected cars from certain dealers. The cars are priced just the same as the dealers website, just the same as Autotrader and Ebay etc. and the only difference is you use a different search website to find them, and on that website there's a chance to arrange finance before you go see a car at the dealers. You don't need to take out any finance at all unless you want to.

If you don't need the finance just use Autotrader, ebay or google. Carfinance 247 just use similar and affiliated garages and add their expensive finance options using the Carcraft name.

Yes, we'd established that already..

Where are they now? Rotting in the dearest depths of hell where they belong hopefully.
