Audi Q5 Purchase

Great experience from no pressure viewing through to purchase. Advisor Jinel dealt with everything, from private plate on the vehicle I was part exchanging going onto retention to sorting out the road tax on the new purchase. My 2nd purchase from this company, I would like to hope it’s not my last if the service and buying experience stays the same. Keep up the good work.

Carmotion were very good to deal with and I would buy from them again.

Carmotion were very good to deal with. I was helped by Paul Johnson, he made the purchase of my car a seamless and pleasant experience he is a credit to the company. When I arrived I noticed the premises were very clean and tidy all the cars were very well presented and this gave me confidence that I was dealing with a company who cared. It's a while since I bought a car and I was very grateful that they arranged
everything, including the road tax so that I could just pop over on the train ( station very close ) and drive it home. Very pleased with my purchase.
Thank you.

Fantastic buying experience

From walking into the showroom to view 3 cars to driving my chosen car away a few days later, Mike Shooter, the salesperson who looked after me was a joy to do business with.
Gave me the keys to look around my the potential vehicles, left me to look and play with the gadgets in them but was there ready to answer all my questions I had.
Mike was extremely professional all the way through, but also very down to earth and a great guy.
Would 100% recommend a visit here. Hundreds of cars to choose from and a nice experience

Ok but could have been better if they had pride in their work.

I don't like giving companies less than 5 stars but feel I need to get my points across to help their future handovers.

Being in the automotive industry this is my personal opinion.

I purchased a car over the phone from car motion with a 10 hour round trip to collect.

Wanted to collect the vehicle on a specific date which was 48 hours after purchase but was rejected due to salesmans day off. No other salesman was allowed to handover the car.

Arrived to collect the car. Car was in worse shape than expected.

Interior parts broken
5 miles fuel remaining
Tyres with 43 psi recommended psi of 32
These things I can live with due to the mileage and price but I think the dealership should take pride in their cars and have common courtesy to take the fuel light off.

My main problem was the rear discs and pads had very little life in them. Bear in mind this car had went through an mot and safety inspection, with no advisories and no inspection remarks. The "it is what it is" mentality didn't go down well with me. Brakes were seized on the car and had to roll to car back and forward to release so I could leave.

I am contemplating taking the car for independent inspection as I feel its not been checked.

Overall it is what it is, purchased a car competitively priced with high mileage just feel the dealership and salesman could give the customers a better experience.

Things for dealership to think about:

Take pride in your cars.
Would you be happy with the car if it was your purchase.
Be more flexible in customers needs.
Ask employees to have some enthusiasm and enjoy their work.

Would I buy from here again?
Probably but I would view the car before handing over any cash.

Personal shout out to Brook he wasn't my salesman but bent over backwards to try help me out. I feel if I had first contact with him the outcome would have been different.
