Salesman did bare minimum. Delivery they put wrong plates on, then just threw the correct ones in the boot for me to swap them over. And it was delivered with incorrect tyre pressures. All four over-inflated and all to same pressure. Poor IMO

All was checked over and all that I wanted to be fixed was fixed (all that was urgent) - However we noticed that when we drove off on holiday that there might be a problem with the break pads and the car was very wobbly upon breaking.
16 April 2024
Overly. Wouldn't have anything to complain about.
15 April 2024
Staff very courteous and helpful but as mentioned above, would Be more satisfied if issue had been resolved.
15 April 2024
I was directed to the seating area upon arrival, and advised I would be seen by Sam shortly. I waited nearly an hour to be seen, and saw a customer who arrived later attended to first. No apology provided, and not the first time this has occurred.
15 April 2024
Sam from the service department was fantastic he is a credit to BMW
15 April 2024
Have been a regular customer for 20 yrs plus. Pleased to say that personal service and being able to speak to humans much better this visit. Last few times very disappointing. At BMW prices I expect personal service at check in, not do it yourself.
15 April 2024
Lack of contact throughout.
14 April 2024
The staff were extremely friendly. Delay of 1 day getting the car back, which wasn't a big deal. The communication was a little slow on the Saturday, but otherwise excellent. I loved getting the car back washed and cleaned - very positive experience.

Having purchased my car less than a year ago, discovering this imperfection is quite upsetting. Moreover, the lack of assistance from the sales advisor has further soured my experience.
08 April 2024
Sam Vick handled the whole service process extremely efficiently, and in a friendly manner.
08 April 2024
Lucy was so helpful and friendly. The service she provided was fantastic. The video check of the car was also good to have as it went through everything clearly.

08 April 2024
As above.
08 April 2024
I do not trust that the minimal amount of work would be carried out to rectify any particular fault. I feel that your customer's money is spent according to your likings. As with most car workshops.

Comfortable to wait and great communication
