Remote purchase

I purchased a MINI from Chorley MG and dealt with Alex remotely via email and telephone. He was friendly, professional and courteous at all times. He managed to arrange the purchase at 3pm and by 5pm the car was prepped and on the back of a loader to be transported to me. It arrived just before midnight on the same day. I couldn’t be happier with the service provided and the quality of the car.

Hi Paul,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and I’m very sorry to hear about the experience you’ve had with your MG HS Trophy.

We appreciate how stressful and frustrating a breakdown like this is, especially given the low mileage and age of the vehicle. Our service team have reviewed the situation and, as you’ve mentioned, Stuart has already been in contact to explain the current position and next steps.

At this stage, we are continuing to liaise with MG on your behalf regarding potential warranty support, however any inspection and diagnosis does need to be completed in line with manufacturer warranty procedures before a final decision can be made.

I do understand your concerns regarding the diagnosis and outcome so far, and I’m sorry that this has not met your expectations. Please be assured the team are still actively working on this with MG to try and reach a resolution.

If you would like to discuss anything further, or if there’s anything additional you feel we should be aware of, please feel free to contact us directly.

Kind Regards,

Very poor experience.

Very poor experience.
From the cold unfriendly 'welcome' at reception as you walk in, to the poor quality of stock. (We viewed several cars with mould on the seats.)
We did buy a car, however it became evident that it had been misrepresented by Chorley MG.
We were also sent another customers personal & financial details by mistake during a buying process.
We were promised the earth and misled.
Folliwing a complaint, we were advised the General Manager would contact us; no one did.
We got our money back after threatening legal action.
(I can see the car is back on the forecourt at an inflated price - and still misrepresented!)
In my opinion, this is a badly run dealership whose sole aim is profit over service.
I would strongly advise against buying a car from here, despite any feeble apology or explanation given below.

No pushy sales

We had a great experience buying our MG. From walking in we was met by Meghan Hine who was welcoming and friendly. Not only was she very helpful and informative but there was no pushy sales. She had all the information we needed and arranged our test drive. Throughout we were kept in the loop and the sale went through quickly and smoothly. Meghan was a pleasure to deal with and we are really pleased with our car.

Thought I would give them a second chance.Not Changed

I have had dealing with these before. Have bought 2 new cars from them in the past. Saw a second hand car, went in to test drive. We had a part exchange, I had been offered £9850 and £10500. When he came back £8500, which was £2000 less than the best and 1350 less than the worse offer. When I show what I had previously been offered, he shrugged his shoulder and said "Oh it's them" . The 2 companies were 2 big car sellers. On the invoice was an admin fee £50 a fuelling fee £20, for an electric car of . my point is if they have an advertised deal then you are OK. But if you are an existing customer they will try and extort as much money as possible and tell you, you are getting the best deal. how do I know this because I was a regular customer and I want to buy a new car off them, they assured me they gave me the best possible deal, but I put my details in one of those sites where dealers offer there best price, the same sales person offer me a far cheaper deal, because He didn't know it was me. Also I used to have my car service there at a premium price, the couldn't be bothered to give it a clean, like you get a decent main dealership. My advice stay away unless it a really good deal.

I wouldn’t buy from them again

I wouldn’t buy from them again.
Multiple problems that ca never be addressed until you get to a management level. I purchased extended warranty.

First problem was they put 3 new tyres on my car at purchase as was advisories on the MOT. The tyres pressure light kept coming on and I returned to the garage 3 times. Kept saying it was a faulty sensor. On the 4 visit to an alternative Chorley group garage they recognised that one of the 3 tyres was a different size to the rest and this was the problem. New tyre supplied and issue resolved.

Second issue was that they claimed they serviced my car upon purchase, even out a sticker in my car with the dates and mileage for next service. The light came on a few months later. When I called the garage to clarify, the invoice from purchase confirmed they had not serviced my car and had lied. This would have invalidated my warranty. This was rectified.

Third issue was when the engine management light came on and I took it in to be repaired, they said I would have to pay £150 for diagnostics even though I had already had that done at another garage. I was taking it there as I was told this was not a wear and tear issue and to utilise my warranty. At no point was I told that the warranty in fact wasn’t with themselves and I could have used any vat registered garage. Complete lack of transparency. This fee was later refunded.

Fourth issue was that the cat proceeded to go into the garage a further 4 times for issues that kept flagging up electronically. Multiple items replaced on the car and unable to resolve. Informed they was referring my car to Volkswagen. 3 weeks later still no communication despite chasing and so I took it to Volkswagen myself. First thing they was was has the battery been checked as this can throw off lots of various faults if things are not being powered. Battery checked and needed a new one. The battery on the car was also the incorrect battery and never been coded into the car. This may have been prior to them purchasing the car but surely after the amount of times the car had been in the garage the battery should have been checked. Battery replaced and all problems have resolved.

The customer service and lack of competence is embarrassing and the only person I’ve ever spoken to that has resolved issues has been Lee.
I would never buy another vehicle from this garage.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, Natasha.

I’m really sorry to read how frustrating and disappointing this has been for you. What you’ve described clearly falls short of the standard of service we would ever want a customer to receive, and I completely understand why this has left you feeling let down and unwilling to return.

It’s evident that you’ve had to spend far too much time chasing issues that should have been identified and resolved much earlier, and I appreciate you outlining this so clearly. I’m glad that Lee was at least able to help bring some resolution along the way, but I fully recognise that this does not undo the inconvenience and stress you’ve experienced.

Thank you again for your honest feedback. It’s important, and it does highlight where improvements are needed.

Brilliant, no pressure sales

I initially contacted MG Chorley and spoke to Ben about an MG5S however after discussions it was really clear it want the car for me. Ben didn't push me into anything else but took the time over the phone to discuss options and alternative cars.

There was zero pressure from start to finish, the initial discussion confirmed the right car and finance package for me, Ben took the time to show me an example car for a test drive and let me go out on the drive unaccompanied which meant I had time to get to know the car.

When I got back Ben was genuinely interested in what I thought, again no pressure from him to buy, he was just enquiring as to how I found it.

As I loved the drive and loved the service from Ben I went forward with the deal. A pick up date was arranged for today (12/12) and when I got there Ben was brilliant again, relaxed, no pressure, took the time to talk me through things and highlighted an issue they noted themselves. Fortunately (and really well handled) the small issue with the car was resolved there and then!

I'd certainly come back to Chorley MG and would really recommend Ben and Chorley MG to anyone!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a detailed and thoughtful review — it really means a lot to the whole team at Chorley MG.

We’re delighted to hear that Ben was able to help you find the right car for you, without any pressure, and that he took the time to talk through your options properly. Making sure our customers feel comfortable, listened to, and confident in their decision is exactly what we aim for, so it’s great to know that came across from start to finish.

It’s also lovely to hear that the handover experience matched the rest of your journey with us, and that the small issue identified was resolved quickly and smoothly on the day. Transparency and doing the right thing are non-negotiables for us.

Thank you again for your recommendation — enjoy your new car, and we’ll be here whenever you need us in the future 🚗✨

Brilliant service, quick and efficient and excellent customer service from Megan Hine. After a lot of back and forth with previous dealerships, Megan sorted me out with a new car sale in one day with a following free delivery the week after, couldn't believe how easy it was compared to previous experiences.

Highly recommend Megan at Chorley MG!

Spoke to Megan at Chorley MG as I was looking for a new car. Megan went above and beyond, making regular contact over the period of a few days and providing excellent advice in relation to figures of a range of cars, as well as being on hand to answer any questions promptly. I settled for a car which is currently at another dealership within group, which Megan has been able to sort and I pick up on Wednesday.

Thank you again Megan, you made the whole experience stress free and great! ☺️
