Dont do it!! Completely crooked sales. I bought a car from them not too long ago because my credit wasnt great at all and I heard they worked well with bad credit and affordable cars/trucks. Well first off the car I liked had a window issue that needed to be fixed and old decal markings left on the side from being a previous fleet car that they purchased at the Richmond auto auction (sticker was even left on the windshield..) The sales lady Jessica insisted that they would take car of these issues but of course they never did and when I inquire about it they give me the full run-around. Secondly a lot of their good reviews are bought and paid for... I know because I posted a few on different sights myself. The owner Jeff told me if I posted 5 good reviews on 5 different sights (which he wrote on a yellow sticky note and handed to me) he said once this was done let him know and they would give me a free tune-up for supporting their business. Thinking "hmm why not.." I did it, as I went back the next day to let them know this was done a young woman who had come in to make a payment on her down payment stated she had done the same but instead for a brake service. I never did get my tune-up and shortly after my "limited 90 warranty" was up Ive had problems with my purchased car that mechanics cant seem to pinpoint as the problem is still occurring $1,900 later. (I havent even put 10,00 miles on this truck since I purchased it a year ago because it doesnt want to drive on a regular basis without having occurring problems...I also WAY OVERPAID sadly :( I could have had a new car for the price I ened up paying on mine..if you buy from them double check the loan amount and everything I was told what I purchased after everything would be for just about 10...im paying off 15k..... =*(

Very bad experience with Brian. Told him I need a dependable vehicle for me to pick up my grandkids and he ripped me off. It has been one problem after another. I have been stranded with my grandkids 2 weeks after buying the car. He does not care of the safety of children as long as he can make a quick dollar.. It is very sad when you will put a child at risk. I know you will read this Brian cause you like reading the reviews. As long as I keep experiencing problems after problems then I will keep writing one. I have had the car for a month and havent even put a thousand miles on it. I asked you if the brakes were done on it after showing you the paper bout it and you flat out lied to me. Found that out when I went and had tires put on it. Everything that goes wrong you want to blame the tires. You want the bad reviews to stop then make it right with me. Thats fine if you dont care bout adults but when you dont care bout babies then there is something wrong... Dann shame you take advantage of women that are struggling to survive. Anyone that is thinking of buying a vehicle please think twice if you have children or grandchildren that you have to transport.. This place dont even deserve 1 star but couldnt post review unless I marked a star. I was not offered a warranty and I wasnt offered the car for 24 hrs. I like to know why. How much for a trade in if you dont think I was done wrong. I want to know why I wasnt offered anything like you said in review. I wouldnt be posses if I was but you lied when you said I was offered those

I just want to let people know that the owner of this place is pricing cars that are in (fair) condition or in horrible condition at what cars in (excellent) arent even worth. He tried to tell me that a car for sale there was in excellent condition.. with a dented hood, missing piece on bumper, needed breaks, had a mis-firing engine, and a recked interior. A car with over 122,000 miles cant be rated as excellent condition and cant be priced so. He wouldnt even bargain with me on the price and tried to insult my intelligence saying that i needed to be realistic and look at the market.. ive been doing this for 28 years i know what im doing. He was talking down to me like i was some guy he was going to rip off for 3 grand and feel good about it. Just understand if you look at what cars are listed online at..look at NADA prices, Blue book values, truecar values.. you have an idea at what you should be trying to buy a car for. there for you know that this place is horrible..dont buy from here. i dont know why it has good ratings...his family must get on here and rate for him. bc no one that went there would. please.. save your self.. and do the right thing as a person and dont support a place like this.. oh yeah if i could i wouldnt give it a star.. people that dont respect customers that own businesses dont get stars in my book

I bought a car from the 9/4/2013 left the lot happy. Now Im having problems I took my car to a dealership to look at my engine and a CERTIFIED TECH looked at it. I need a new motor already and i have only put 1900 miles of the car. I called the warranty company that I got threw there company and it only overs $1,000 for the fix. Its going to cost me around $7000 to fix. Thats just about the price of the car. So I called Jeff Fox and told him hes taking the car back bacause he sold me a car that needed a new motor. He yelled at me saying the car was fine the dealership is just trying to get money from me. We have a few words and he said he would talk to his partner and call me back. As I was leaving he said good job on getting your job at Hall I said thanks and he said I would be careful if I was you I asked why he said because hes getting a job there so I better watch out. Really your going to sell me a car that needed a new motor and threaten my job.. NEVER BUY A CAR FROM THEM I SELL CARS THE NEED WORK AND DONT TELL YOU

My name is Jon and Im in the military and I just flew in from San Diego. Im new to the area and i didnt know where i could find a good respectable and honest dealer. I went on the internet and searched reviews and found a lot of good things being said about marlin motors. So i thought i would give them a shot. I picked out a 2005 Honda accord ex, and bought it for $4,990 Plus taxes and tags. They faxed off my purchase order to navy federal credit union, and they had an approval within 15 minutes. I drove down to the local branch in norfolk and picked up my check. I immediately returned to the dealership and was on the road within 30 minutes. Included in my purchase i got a 90 day warranty from a national warranty company. I didnt have to come out of pocket with any cash because they included everything in my loan. My experience at buying a car at marlin motors was a great one! I highly recommend Marlin Motors! Especially if your in the military or a naval federal credit union member!
