I’ve noticed a couple of bad reviews including one in May 2025. We bought a Mini Countryman diesel Cooper in 2024 from them and it’s been a nightmare. On collection we found it had no engine oil despite having been told it had an oil change, the engine malfunction light came on within 2 days of receipt, the car then spent two weeks in their care but within a further 2 days after collection the light was back on. Then it went to a so called expert under warranty that determined it was the exhaust gas valve which they replaced. This lasted a little over 3 months when the car literally blew up because the true cause of the problem was that the DPF was blocked. We eventually replaced the blocked filter & the EGV costing more than £1500 of our own money. Do not waste your time and money with these charlatans, when confronted with my account of these issues I was told these are the vagaries of buying 2nd hand cars; more like buying from Fish Motors.
Trust you find this beneficial and prevent others from our year long ordeal.

I had a fantastic experience at Fish Motors! The staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, especially my salesman, Chris, who went above and beyond to make the car-buying process smooth and enjoyable. He took the time to understand my needs and guided me through their great selection of vehicles. I appreciated the transparency with pricing and financing options, which made everything feel straightforward. The test drive was seamless, and I felt no pressure at all. I left with a car I love and a smile on my face! Highly recommend Fish Motors and Chris for anyone in the market for a new ride!

Do not buy a car from fish motors.you have been warned.bunch of cowboys running that show!!and more importantly there cars are faulty aswell .engine management light problems after a couple of days, then they are not interested in helping sort the problem correctly,then after getting the finance company involved.they soon backed tracked and took the car back and rewound the finance,and after the car was handed back they even had the cheek to try and black mail me ,buy saying they wouldn’t rewind the deal if I didn’t sign a piece of paper saying I would have to keep my mouth shut about the whole ordeal!!! Stay well clear!

After purchasing car from this dealer there was constant issue with transmission, which they were trying to fix and for about a year the car was coming in and out of various garages without success in fixing it. Then coning to an year close after purchasing dealer turn around saying they won't cover cost for this to be fixed as the fault keeps reoccurring. This dealer sells faulty cars and doesn't feel reliable to get this fixed or exchange it. Don't trust this dealer as you will end up with expensive bill to get car fixed to roadworthy state

Following on from my review a week ago, I’ve now had a new battery fitted by Fish Motors due to problems with the previous one. So far so good. The car is starting up and no issues with anything at the moment. Drives beautifully. I was told by Chris to bring the car in on Thursday morning and leave it with them for an hour. The battery had already been ordered. Just needed replacing. Had a chinwag with the owner (Mr. Fish). Seemed like a real genuine bloke. Apologised about the situation but said don’t worry, it’ll get sorted. Battery was duly replaced and my keys handed back to me. No charge because it was still under warranty (3 months). The whole experience was very stress free and i felt very pleased. Should you want to buy a used car, you need to check these people out. You won’t go far wrong.

Friendly people, great customer service and welcoming. Was given a ‘Thank you’ box which was filled with goodies. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking to buy a car.

Excellent. Matthew was very helpful and left me to look around the car without pressuring me. He sorted all of the issues that I needed to be sorted out before the purchase was completed. Also the gift box which I received when I collected my car was a lovely touch. Would highly recommend

No nonsense car purchase, no pushy sales people. Ryan was friendly and easy to deal with. Cute little box of goodies after the sale..really nice touch! I even overpaid and they called 2 days later to refund me as I hadn't noticed. Genuine people...and I absolutely love my car ! Would highly recommend.
