Company details
Written by the company
With a family history in motor vehicle sales across Kent, I grew up surrounded by cars and developed a passion for the industry from an early age. In 2020, I decided to build something of my own — and JW Autos was born. What began with just three cars quickly grew into a thriving business. Within five years, we expanded our stock to over two hundred vehicles and earned a strong reputation for personal service, expert knowledge, and high-quality used cars. Our commitment to excellence has been recognised nationally, winning Newcomer of the Year and UK Independent Dealer of the Year (General Sales – Under 150) at the 2023 MotorTrader Independent Dealer Industry Awards. We specialise in reliable, great-value everyday vehicles, sourced through trusted networks to offer a wide range of popular makes and models. Every car is personally selected and put through a rigorous 147-point inspection at our 22,000 sq. ft. preparation centre, where our team of master technicians, painters, and detailers ensure each vehicle meets our strict Quality Standard. Despite our growth, our values of integrity, transparency, and genuine care remain central to everything we do. Whether it’s your first car or your next one, JW Autos is dedicated to offering a straightforward, friendly, and trustworthy buying experience. Jack Waddell Founder, JW Autos

My Honest Review
I am a returning customer as I have been to JW autos before to buy a car with my friend which went well. And here is my honest opinion about JW-autos
Sales
JW-autos have a fantastic Sales personnel in particular if you have Krystal as your advisor then you are in right hands. She’s patient, understand your needs and tailor your search to what you want. Krystal is just amazing and if there is any reason to go back to JW it’s because of her professionalism and conduct and knowledge.
My Bad Experiences
Valeting- Before picking my car, I discovered that it was not well cleaned. The frunk was in a terrible state and I called their attention to it and they asked me to come back a day later- I would have imagined that a car being picked up by a customer should be in a good / clean state
Post sales-
Shortly (2 days)after picking up my car. I discovered there is a chip on the inner part of the panoramic roof. This can only be noticed if you are sitting on the passenger side which unfortunately I did not sit in whilst checking the car. The very first passenger I picked noticed this. Note that this was not disclosed on the listing nor during sales and a chip is definitely not consistent with the “fair usage according to age of car”. A chip is an actual damage caused by hitting the roof. I contacted JW autos immediately and oh my God the tone of their message is terrible. It is like, once they get paid they don’t care about whatever happens. They were being dismissive and offer no probable solution and I just find this behaviour very unprofessional.
Overall if you want a good Sales rep and sales experience it’s a definitely a good place to be and you will be in good hands of knowledgeable individuals and sales personnel(particularly Krystal)who prioritise your needs
However, if you care about post sales customer services and support you need to manage your expectations better

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed review. We’re pleased to hear that your experience with Krystal was positive — she’ll be delighted to know her efforts made a strong impression.
That said, we're very sorry to hear about the issues you experienced with the vehicle valeting and aftersale communication. We agree that every vehicle should be presented in a clean and ready-to-drive condition upon collection, and we’re sad to hear that we fell short in this instance.
Regarding the chip on the panoramic roof, we understand how frustrating this must be, and we're sorry that our response came across as dismissive. Should you wish to discuss this further please feel free to contact us - aftersales@jw-autos.co.uk
Many Thanks

Great place to buy a car!
Popped down on Saturday afternoon to browse and ended up buying! Ash was very courteous, polite, professional and didn't make me feel pressured to buy. Dealing with finance was a breeze and handled promptly and professionally. Marko sorted out the collection paperwork and road tax and I'm now the happy owner of an MB GLA! Would 100% recommend these guys, they were amazing 👏

Great Experience
Louie and Marko were extremely friendly and professional. They talked me through the whole process and helped me to pick out a beautiful car. Getting the finance and tax was so quick and easy, and they took care of everything. I am now the happy owner of a lovely Mini Countryman. I would highly recommend them.
