Phantom Motor Company 

Picked up the wife’s F23 M240i today, 15.5hrs door to door, had only a couple of minor issues which were swiftly sorted, car as described, everything explained clearly and Amir was amazing, he was clearly v busy but he still looked after me. Gino had picked me up from the station, thankyou Sir! (we also share the same barber)! A first class outfit, highly recommended, will be back, cheers all. Come see our pub dahn South, drinks on the house. Best Regards, Ricky

Excellent customer care can’t knock the company or service. Amir service was second to none.

Amir has been an amazing help throughout my purchase of my BMW M2, he made sure to guide me through the entire purchasing process and answered all my questions no matter what they were regarding, although I haven’t met him as I had to have the car delivered, I would absolutely recommend him to anyone else looking to buy a new performance car, he knows his cars.

As someone who’s been in the motor trade doing the exact same job, this is exactly how I would expect a Sales Executive to be with their customers, and I’ve been told I’ve always had pretty high standards.

Many thanks Amir for helping me get my M2

We are very disappointed with Phantom’s involvement in recommending this warranty company. We trusted your advice when purchasing the car, believing that the recommended warranty provider would offer reliable support. Unfortunately, our experience has been the opposite.
After my father purchased his car through your company, paying a significant amount for a two years warranty, we faced a serious issue with the car’s cooling system, and the warranty company refused to cover the repairs despite clear evidence. This raises concerns about the relationship between Phantom and this provider, and whether proper checks were carried out before recommending them to customers.
We expected a higher level of responsibility and customer care from Phantom. Situations like this can affect customer trust and confidence, and we hope you will review your partnership with this company to prevent similar experiences for others.

I purchased a car from phantom motor company and the hole process was faultless ,
The salesman’ Amir ‘ was very helpful and professional in getting the car ready quickly for me

Amir was really helpful and gave a great customer sales experience. Many thanks.

Enquired about an SVR and initially everything seemed fine, but as soon as I asked a simple question about pricing, the tone of the response changed completely.

Instead of a professional reply, I received a defensive response with assumptions made about my budget — which was never mentioned. Not what you expect when making a serious enquiry at this level.

I’ve since gone ahead and secured a better deal elsewhere (lower mileage, 12-month warranty and part exchange included), so clearly it wasn’t a budget issue — just a lack of flexibility and poor handling of a genuine customer.

If you’re happy to pay the asking price without question, you may have a better experience. If not, be prepared for a less professional response.

What a joke !
The only good thing that comes out of this company is the air freshener you get free in the car, even the free uberala are crap,
the rest is lies lies and lies been waiting since September to get my car sorted !!!

Here's a little poam about phantom! True

Phantom Motors
They sell you dreams in polished chrome,
A perfect car to take you home.
A smile, a handshake, keys in hand—
The finest deal in all the land.
But once you’ve driven down the street,
Their helpful voices face defeat.
Emails vanish, phones stay dead,
Silence echoes words unsaid.
A warranty that sounds so grand,
Yet slips away like grains of sand.
Promises fade, excuses grow,
Service moving painfully slow.
Repairs delayed, problems remain,
Each call and message sent in vain.
The showroom shine begins to dim,
As trust grows tired, worn and thin.
So heed this verse before you buy,
Look twice before your money flies.
For after sales, as tales have shown,
At Phantom Motors… you’re on your own. 🚗💨

UPDATE - 30/03/26
Great to see a more specific response from you this time rather than the multiple previous stock copy/paste replies.
Interesting you want to try and call out that all past reviews have been seen, waiting is frustrating and my matter has not been ignored. That is a complete and utter lie. My reviews and experiences are real, as is your failures to address the issues since date of purchase which I again note is over 17 months ago now. I wouldn't feel the need to leave negative reviews if you simply dealt with your customers concerns appropriately.
Using comments such as "accelerate the process" and "proper investigation" is laughable on your part. You have got it wrong on multiple occasions and need to take ownership...
The reviews will continue as long as the poor experiences continue, that's in your control and is my absolute right as a customer...
------------------------------------------------------
This business clearly has massive cultural issues when it comes to their aftersales service. The tactic of just ignoring customers in the hope they will go away is truly shameful.

I am 17 months on from purchase date and issues have been constant throughout that time. I have also left countless negative reviews on this platform that are met with with a standard copy/paste response but no meaningful action.

Despite having a complaints section of their website they have never followed the steps that are outlined there and more worrying is the signposting to the Motor Ombudsman who have told me Phantom Motor Company are not an accredited member of their scheme.

I have emailed the Director, Cole Hibbert on a number of occasions now, the first being Monday 9th February which is over 6 weeks ago. There has been so far, zero response from him. The only update I have received has been from the Customer Support Team to advise "Cole is currently still out of the country; however, he is aware that you have contacted us and will provide you with an email response as soon as possible".

The silence continues...

Very disappointed with Phantom Motor Company for recommending a warranty provider that failed to deliver (A1 Approved Warranties). Based on their recommendation, I trusted the service, but my claim was unfairly rejected, which resulted in me losing money. I expected better guidance and accountability when directing customers to third-party companies.

Additionally, one of your representatives contacted me and promised to get back to me the next day, but I never heard anything further. It felt like this was only said for appearance, with no real intention of following up.
Unfortunately, this experience has affected my trust, and I would not recommend relying on their recommendations in the future.

Aftersales are always so helpful when I phone up, called today about a problem I’m having with my car. Spoke to Ava and she got me straight in touch with the warranty company. Amazing service !

Had the pleasure of speaking to Kate. She was helpful and supportive. Thank you, I would recommend phantom motors.

My wife recently had to have her newly purchased car repaired a few times, same fault but it could have been a number of things wrong. Annoying at first but Ellie explained everything to us each step of the way and we knew what to expect. Even with repairs, I’d still recommend phantom

I’ve dealt with Ellie in aftersales a few times recently as I had an issue with my recent car purchase. They did a staged repair, which meant a few trips to the workshop but Ellie looked after us each time.

Ellie in aftersales was bloody fab !!! Thanks so much

Avoid warranty & service plan. Appalling aftersales, they literally dont care once the car is out of the door and are extremely dismissive. Don't return calls, one person promises one thing, someone else another, neither ever materialise, never willing to put anything in writing, despite promises to do so. They were brilliant up to the point of driving away, but aftercare is where a company always shows its true colours . I was totally missold the warranty and service plan, neither really worth the paper theyre written on or promises made on purchase. Many other reviews online saying the same. An expensive mistake. Just can't trust them anymore, so wouldn't advise buying from here. Dont believe the "we go the extra mile " bull they constantly repeat to you. They will treat you like a mug ultimately. Luckily for me the car has been generally OK, others haven't been so lucky. If you know your way around a car, find a straight one and and like it then great, just dont be conned into the service plan or warranty, or deceived by their shady sales patter. They honestly dont care about you like they make out, only your money. Im having to go to the finance company for misselling, and ultimately the small claims court to get some cash back for the warranty and service plan. Luckily I have the conversation when I bought it, and calls recorded, so that I can at least evidence it when the time comes. I'd advise others to do the same.

UPDATE : Contacted by complaints once reviews went up, promised a resolution and call back within 24hrs. Still waiting 7 days later. What a surprise...Promise everything, deliver nothing, at least they're consistent ! They just hope you'll get bored of trying to deal with them & disappear. Having now contacted the motor ombudsman (who they advertise they are accredited by), I was told they in fact are not, so buyers please beware !

FURTHER UPDATE: Just tried to make my first warranty claim due to engine management light being on. Requires a £700 repair, and only had the car just over a month. This, despite being told "its the gold cover, so literally everything is taken care of, won't cost you a penny for the next 3 years". Needs a nox sensor, which I've had replaced under warranty no question from other places. Absolutely, as I keep saying, not worth the paper its written on. Dodgy cars, dodgy company, dodgy everything with this place. And its now been over 2 weeks since I was supposed to be called back by complaints. Just avoid this lot.

Came in for my annual service. Every time I come in it has always been a different member of the Aftersales team looking after me. This time it was Ava and she definately stood out, such a welcome smile and was extremely helpful when I had some extra queries. Couldn’t fault their service, fantastic from phantom !

What an absolute cowboy company, Had my car less than 18 hours then it all wants tits up, engine management light came on, took them 3 weeks to sort it then my wife was driving to Manchester and then wishbone snapped, she is so lucky that this didn't happen on the Motorway and when i spoke to them about this all they could say "well faults do happen" OMFG they don't give a toss. stay away from these, they say when you call them that they are the number 1 car dealer in the country, MY ARSE they are. after sales total rubbish. will be getting in contact with trading standards about these.

I had a young lad called Amir, and no word of a lie the greatest experience i’ve ever had at a car garage, the whole part ex turnover was finalised within 4 days, amazing. Whenever i rang or came in to speak with amir, there was always smiles and laughs involved which does really improve the experience and proves Amir has a lot of ambition for the job. Great work.
