I would not recommend.
I want to start by saying that Rhys, who handled the sale of the vehicle, was professional, helpful, and a pleasure to deal with throughout the purchasing process. None of the concerns in this review relate to him or his conduct as a salesperson.
Unfortunately, my experience after the purchase has been extremely disappointing.
Shortly after purchasing the vehicle, I began experiencing issues and returned the vehicle to the dealership for investigation. After the vehicle had been in the dealership's care for several days regarding those concerns, it subsequently failed to start, requiring assistance from the RAC. Following their inspection, the RAC identified a number of issues with the vehicle and provided a report documenting their findings.
During recent correspondence, I was informed that the dealership had not received the RAC report, which I have now forwarded for their consideration. However, I found it disappointing that my concerns appeared to be questioned before the independent report had even been reviewed. This left me feeling as though my account of events was not being taken seriously, despite obtaining independent evidence to support the concerns I had raised.
I also purchased the vehicle under the impression that it had undergone a full service before sale. However, I was later informed by the Service Manager that the dealership's preparation process consisted only of adding oil. If that is the case, this falls well short of what most customers would reasonably understand to be a full service and raises concerns about how the vehicle was prepared before being sold.
Communication throughout the process was inconsistent. On one occasion, I was informed that nobody could access or move my vehicle for approximately 30 minutes, only to then witness a member of staff driving it away shortly afterwards. Had this simply been explained, there would have been no issue, but the conflicting information reduced my confidence in the explanations I was being given.
What was particularly disappointing was the dealership's approach when I raised the possibility of returning the vehicle. Given that the concerns arose so soon after purchase, and considering the vehicle had already been returned to the dealership on multiple occasions, I had hoped for a more customer-focused approach and greater willingness to work towards a fair resolution. Instead, I felt that my concerns were met with resistance rather than understanding.
Despite raising concerns shortly after purchase, I was repeatedly required to return the vehicle to the dealership to have the reported issues investigated, causing significant inconvenience. The overall handling of the situation left me feeling unsupported and frustrated throughout what should have been a straightforward process.
I have ultimately decided to keep the vehicle rather than pursue a refund or exchange. However, I remain disappointed with the way my concerns were handled by the service department and management team. While Rhys provided excellent customer service during the sale, my experience with the service department and management has unfortunately been the complete opposite.
Based on my experience, I would not recommend this dealership.
