Eli Motors?

I'm looking at a car at Eli Motors and was just wondering if anyone worked with them before or knew anything about this used car dealership?

http://www.elimotors.ca/index.htm

They have a bunch of used Subarus, VWs, Audis and others.

EDIT: Since there are a bunch of drones bumping my original thread, I thought I'd share my experience:

I told them that I would like to get the Subaru dealership down the road to look at it (at my cost) so I could see what kind of condition it was in. I book the appointment, I give the dealership and Eli Motors the details and I show up at the dealership in the evening to find out the car was never brought in. Didn't bother with them anymore after that.

I've never been there personally, but I've bought 2 cars in the finch / duffrin used car areas.

All those dealerships run on a similar model, they buy off lease and used cars from auctions. Then they sell them.

Insist that a car see your mechanic, or most importantly a shop that specializes in that type of car. So if your buying a Subaru/audi/VW, go onto toronto subaru/ audi / VW freaks .com or whatever the forum might be and ask them where all those guys take their cars to get serviced. Then call up the shop and ask them how much they know about the vehicle and if they could do an inspection for you. Might also be wise to post the year and model of the car and ask for common problems. This might not work if your buying higher end cars since those types of owners don't typically sit on the internet.

That or if you google around you can find the common problems for a given year.

It looks like a pretty normal dealer. You're always going to have to go there to find out.

I, personally, have bought 18 vehicles from Eli. His service is nothing short of spectacular. He went out of his way to ensure that all of my desires were fulfilled and I'm now a better person for buying vehicles from Eli.

My latest acquisition, a 2011 Bentley continental GT, is running as smooth as the day it rolled off the assembly line.

Thanks Eli

I recently visited Eli & it seems like an "ALRIGHT" place & Trust me when I say I know about scammers.Eli motors had some pretty cool cars.They were much different from places such as TAK Auto & Sun Auto where sales guy were kind of creepy sorta...I'd definitely buy from them (with my mechanics approval ofcourse).
