Changing Prices?!

I was looking at an Kia Niro 3, which was up for £17,900 and has been since 07/05/26 and before then 21/04/26 it was at £18,000. I enquired to ask questions about the car specifically the battery and if certain cables were included, as I was talking through the chat the price increased to £18,100 which I then questioned and they brushed it off with we do dynamic pricing to the market. Seems abit suspect that it happens exactly when I enquire about the car and they wouldn't provide a battery health report.

Hi,

We are sorry about your disappointment so far.

In regards to the increased price of the vehicle, while I do apologise that you are disappointed with the increased price, our prices can change as our system automatically updates our vehicle's prices according to Autotrader’s live recommended retail value. It is because of this that we advise that you reserve our vehicles, as this would ensure that the price is capped at the time of your reservation so that the price would not increase and that your vehicle is not sold to someone else.

Kindest regards,
Big Motoring World

Had a great experience would not go elsewhere ever again and i would not have made the purchase without Mo Balas help. He was very helpful and professional. He gave me all the information to make the right decision for me.

Buying our new mg4

The process of buying a new car takes a lot of time. We had chosen our new car. But the paper work took an hour. However our sales rep Mo Bala was excellent. Kept us updated along the way. Before selecting our chosen car we were shown other alternatives and were taken out for test drive. Mo's knowledge about the different car was excellent and made our decision easier.

Well worth a visit

Mo Bala was extremely helpful in explaining to my wife the benefits of going electric. From there I'd already looked at potential cars and the Nissan Leaf we looked at has proved to be the right choice. Thanks to Mo for spending the time to do a good deal on the day which was more than expected.
The only downside was pick up day.
We only live 10 minutes away and having left home at 10:40 and got back home at 12:15, with the handover only taking 10 minutes we had an hour of waiting with no communication as to why it was taking so long.
Overall very good but be prepared to wait for long periods

Hi Tony,

Thank you for your review. We're happy to hear that the information about electric vehicles was helpful and that you found the right car. We appreciate your positive feedback. We regret the delay during pickup and the lack of communication. We will review our processes to improve the pickup experience.

Do not waste your time

If you walk in with cash to purchase a vehicle and you don't take their extortionately priced extra warranty or want their finance, they do not want to know you. The car we viewed had a small area of considerable (easy spottable) damage. I highlighted the damage, the salesman instantly recoiled, ran off to speak to the 'manager' / 'the wall', and agreed that should not be there and they will honour repairing this. They wanted to repair it rather than reduce the cost of the car, so we paid the deposit and agreed the asking price and we would pick it up a few days later. We called prior to collection to check, 'all has been done and the car is ready'. Timed slot to collect the car but they left my wife waiting 1hr before being seen to. The original sales person eventually came over to sign paperwork and she was told to sign at that point before seeing the car as it would be another 30mins wait to sign after if she wanted to see the car first. The salesman will now exit your life at this point never wishing to be bothered again. Keys are flung at my wife and instructed the car is outside a door somewhere. When found the damage hadn't been repaired, the bodywork shop had pushed the small trim back in place and that's your lot. Dent and scratches remained. When challenged they basically lie and back out of any agreement they may have previously told. You are left with the person who is payment + handover team but they can't answer for the salesman. Called for the manager, the manager won't come and see you, the car is to be now sold as seen for the asking price.
Disgusting behaviour and abominable customer service. A mere polite interaction from the salesman or manager would have probably have saved this sale, however my wife left the showroom. Frustrated, car -less, out of pocket as we had already bought the insurance. The deposit has just been refunded after chasing, nearly 2 weeks later. Do not waste your time.

Hi A Williams,

Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention and expressing your dissatisfaction with the service you've received from Big Motoring World. We apologise for any inconvenience or frustration caused by the issues you've encountered during your visit.

We certainly would not wish for our customers to leave feeling as you did.

We do repair any small imperfections that we can at our prep centre before our vehicles are introduced to our forecourts. Unfortunately, not all scratches and dents can be repaired. However, I have passed this on to the relevant Management Teams so that this can be reviewed internally. Additional training will also be provided where necessary to ensure this does not happen again.

Kindest regards,

Struggling now to get even a phone call response from them! Disgusting customer aftersales. They all to happy to take £9000 from me, but when a fault develops, they're not i terrsred@

Hi Tim,

Thank you for your review. I am sorry ot hear that you have experienced these concerns with your vehicle and for the frustration that this has caused.

All of our vehicles are subjected to an inspection prior to their placement on the forecourt, however, they are all sold in a used condition and on occasion, faults can develop, often these are unforeseen and sudden.

Please get in touch with the team at BigAssist@bigmotoringworld.co.uk and a member of the team will be in touch with you as soon as they can.

3-day purchase ordeal and unresolved safety issues

I am writing this to express my deep dissatisfaction with the Leeds branch. What should have been a simple purchase turned into a 3-day ordeal.
• The Finance Trap: I was required to pay a £500 deposit before being allowed to see the APR rates. Being forced to commit money without knowing the cost of the credit is a practice that feels designed to corner the customer. I ended up paying by cash which then lead to them trying to not sell me the car.
• Safety & Missing Items: The horn failed on the very first day of ownership. Despite this being a safety-critical dealer responsibility under the Consumer Rights Act, I’ve been told to go to the manufacturer. Furthermore, the 3-pin charging cable was missing and my requests for the reimbursement for the replacement are being ignored.
• Poor Communication: No one is responding to my emails or my outstanding complaint. I even received an email saying my reservation had expired the moment I left the site. Despite being told it would be held.
I am still waiting for the branch to take ownership of the horn repair and provide the reimbursement for the missing cable. I hope this public feedback prompts a manager to finally resolve these issues professionally.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!
The single worst car buying experience of my life. We bought a Range Rover Evoque 7 months ago from big Motoring World. In that time, it has been off the road, undriveable for 4 months!
Before we bought the car, we were told it would be serviced, this never happened. When we went to collect, the body work was damaged as it had been crashed into.
Thus far, we have spent almost £2000 on towing, diagnostics, replacement parts and labour on the car...and we are now facing another £1000 bill for the latest problem, which would have been avoided had the car been serviced as originally agreed.
Customer service are useless, I have wasted countless hours on hold to unhelpful and rude customer service agents, who are clearly trained to never admit any fault or accept liability for anything.
We are currently in the process of taking legal advice to submit a claim to the motoring ombudsman, for all of the expenses that we have had because of this.

I cannot stress this enough.....DO NOT BUY A CAR FROM BIG MOTORING WORLD!!!

Don’t waste your time!

We went to Big Motoring World twice in 3 days. I had registered interest in 3 cars prior to our first visit. We were kept waiting for over have an hour after our appointment started before we saw the first car, which wasn’t suitable. Another 40 minutes later we were told that we couldn’t test drive the Honda H-RV as the battery was flat and wouldn’t start. Another half an hour later we finally managed to test drive a Ford Kuga, which I was interested in buying until I pointed out several areas of concern we spotted on closer examination, including what looked like collision damage on the rear bumper.
We made a further appointment online for the following week to test drive 2 Ford Kugas we were interested in. The cars were specifically requested using the online booking form. This time we were waiting another 45 minutes only for the sales representative to tell us the car wouldn’t start. We decided to leave at that point as we’d wasted enough time. I would have expected the cars we had booked to see in advance to have been checked before we arrived and made sure they were ready to go. On both occasions we were left waiting way too long with no updates as to what was happening.

don't lift a finger to help you.

we was in the Leeds shop to buy a car, 6 hours the transition took to purchase a car, they took the car matts gave me a broken key shell and refused to fix it as it was "still working" tried to get us to sign the paper work whilst the car was in the garage after finding an issue with the car, had to ask them to reclean the car as it clearly a rushed job. We have asked for the car matts back and a key shell, after weeks of emails they have basically said no. I am glad I have recommend against big motoring world to people I know who are looking to buy a car

Hi Jessica,

I am very sorry to hear that the service you received was not satisfactory

With regards to the mats, this vehicle was not supplied to us with these items. If a vehicle is supplied to us without non-essential items such as mats, we would not look to replace them. The reason for this is to keep our preparation costs as low as possible, allowing us to pass on the best possible savings to our customers.

We do apologise for any disappointment caused. However, prior to purchase, documentation would have been signed confirming that you were satisfied with the condition of the vehicle at handover.

We appreciate your feedback regarding the length of your visit and the preparation of the vehicle, and we are sorry that the experience did not meet your expectations.

I have passed this on to Management at Leeds so that this can be reviewed internally and improved going forward.

Kindest regards,

I paid £120 to move the car and they couldn't find it

I paid £120 for a car to be moved from the Norwich Branch to Leeds and agree a time and day to view the car. When I arrived I was guided to a table and encourage to sit down and wait. After 10-15 minutes a sales rep approached and started talking me through their process and the finance options and also tried to get me to look at other cars. I made it clear that I had arranged to view a specific car and that I would be paying cash and had no interest in any of their add-on products. After this the rep went quiet and I asked to view the car. After repeated attempts to find the car the rep claimed he couldn't locate it... It was honestly a waste of time and money and I believe that they only want to sell their cars to people who want to take out he finance and other packages.

Recently I have enquired online for a potential purchase of a car at their Leeds site.

The process was simple online, thats my advice, book a time slot with the online chat. The website allows you to reserve the car for 3 days to allow you to view before purchasing which is great for a small refundable fee.

We were met by Billy (Sales Representative), who was amazing with his subject matter, he provided me with all the necessary information regarding the purchase. He did not push the sale and allowed us to drive the vehicle locally which was amazing. Again Billy went through the whole process which is simple.

Thnaks Billy and the Team at Leeds, a fantastic experience with amazing staff!
