Big Motoring World - Sheffield Reviews 

The sales staff were very good and we saw lots of (different ones! ) what let the company down was the shabby valeting of the cars for sale. Ours which we nearly didn’t buy was revaleted 4 times until a satisfactory condition albeit when we got it home it did still have a stale smell will be having it valeted ourselves.

Stay clear of this place. You will find nothing but liars and incompetent people who think their job is more important than it really is.

The warranty isn't worth the paper it's printed on and it gets shoved down your throat even if you decline it 20 times.

Every stage of the purchase - initial interest, purchase, after-sales is a joke, at least at the Sheffield branch.

There is so much to say that I could write a full essay but the point of the story is to avoid this place like plague.

The process was efficient from beginning to end. I booked an appointment and reserved the car I was interested in. I decided I preferred a different car and was taken for a test drive. Once I had decided to buy the car I was taken through every stage. I went on a Saturday and it was very busy, so there was some waiting at each stage. I completed the purchase on the same day and drove away in my new car.

We have had a calm and quick purchase. Very hassle free. Lovely customer service by Ali and support from others. Very happy!

Had a response from Big Motoring World about our experience. Not great and it misses the point. Even our sales representative passed comments on the situation that it was a common theme. Big Motoring World need to really dig into their reviews as obvious common themes occurring. SO GLAD we did not hand over our hard earned money and purchased elsewhere.

Had an appointment at 2pm did not get seen till around 3pm, the car I was viewing they could not find took about another hour to find it, once it was found it was filthy had dust covering the whole car so could not see the paint work for marks or scratches, the sales guy dragged the whole sale out trying to sell me everything but the car, I called up prior to this visit as I had already been accepted for the finance and said I’m a long drive away and I’m not coming back to collect another day so drive away today was a must, after all the run around and dragging it out it was 5pm before we got to the final stages and at this point I was told that in order to tax this vehicle I have to fill forms out and take them to the post office my self the sales guy insisted that I would be okay to drive the vehicle to the post office without tax on the car, obviously that is completely wrong, they also tried to over charge me on the warranty because when they sales guy come back and told me the price with the warranty I said no it’s to expensive so he said okay I’ll speak to the sales team to get the price down so obviously the warranty is cheaper just want more money out of you, honestly after the whole situation I did not trust this company and ended up walking away without buying the car please be aware with this company

Was very good experience all staff was thorough and professional making sure I got everything I wanted/needed. They also were able to negotiate with for my part exchange which made sure I got the best possible deal.

Bought a car an on the day I collected it it turns out it had a major gear box fault and it goes into emergency mode so many of the gears will Not work and now I’m stuck without a car that I’m still having to pay for. Customer service don’t seem interested so I’m having to try claim a refund from My finance company failing the ombudsman will Be the next step

We had amazing experience when buying a car. Everything here is very proffesional and quick. Our sales person Ellis was very kind and helpfull. He showed us a car in 20 minutes after our arrival and he has given us multiple options about how to finance the car. We left in 2,5 hours with a new car and hopefully it was a great buy ! We have 2 years warranty included in our package so this brings a peace in mind too ! We would definitely recommend them !

It was a good experience from start to finish. Searching their website was easy, applying for finance was easy with a quick response. I was able to book a next day appointment to view the car. The team in the Sheffield branch were friendly, helpful and informative.

Okay, I really do hate giving bad reviews but I have just spent over £14,000 on a car which I collected the middle of December, the experience of purchasing the car wasn’t that great and I’m not sure he wanted to sell me the car as I wasn’t going for finance in which he was very confrontational about why I didn’t want finance and tried everything to convince me - I did eventually buy the car, but as the numberplate was damaged I asked if this could be sorted and then I would collect a week later, I paid the deposit and would pick up a week later. Unfortunately, upon collecting nothing had been done and the numberplate wasn’t fixed. After emailing my concerns I was told that if I wanted to find someone to do it myself they would settle the invoice. I just left it in the end. End of February beginning of March I heard a few ping noises I had previously put it down to the fact I keep a water bottle in the back and maybe that was hitting the chair and would monitor it . I didn’t really think much of it however the noise got louder and louder by the middle of March it was impossible to turn the car without this loud pinging noise and vibration throughout the foot area , I raised it to big motoring world by email on 28th March following a chat with Citroen who told me to go back to the dealership as this is not normal. Citroen also noted an oil leak (I’m hoping it’s just residue but trusted big motoring world would look into this). I called up on 2nd April as I had no response to my email and spoke to a lovely girl who advised me that i need not worry I am fully covered within 90 days and I can get the work done myself up to a certain amount from an AA garage or the big motoring world near me has availablity and will sort me out so I don’t have to wait to be reimbursed! Perfect ! Il get a call back that day! Fast forward two weeks - nothing. I had to raise a complaint to get a very strange copy and pasted messaged back saying someone has sorted the appointment so it’s resolved. Then an email from Sebastian saying I am not entitled to any help as just after 3 months now. Honestly , my experience has been terrible. I am awaiting a final decision letter as if they have now changed their mind from no problem to your own your own then I am confidently pursuing this under my consumer rights and with the ombudsman along with other external channels. The worst customer service in a long time. Chasing and chasing no one cares ! Amanda Coker

Got a car from here in Sheffield. Served by Ali. He was amazing and gave us a good explanation regarding all the insurance options and car prices. Amazing service.

Our salesman Richard was very polite and efficient explaining the process

Managed to reserve my car online, and the go in the next day to sort my px and drive away the same day. The sales adviser was lovely and made the process smooth

Paige was a great help , even though the car I wanted was reserved she helped me , look at options

We haven't been able to get a car on our scheduled loan for a week. The monthly payment is £453 for a £22,000 car and £18,000 too. I don't understand how they're doing business with this. I should never go near your place again.

at this sheffield branch there service was 10 out of 10 ella smith the sales person was very kind and helpful and knew a lot about her work very experienced one of the managers seen to us aswell and gave us really good advise and made me feel comfortable whilst we was there drinks was offered regularly the workplace was tidy and looked nice inside would recommend to go purchase cars at this branch

Several different members of staff were involved during the process of us choosing then buying a car, all of whom were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable.
We did feel that more staff were needed on the Sunday of our booked test drive. Our sales advisor was dealing with another couple at the same time, in addition to training a new salesperson. It took a long time.
A couple nearby gave up after waiting nearly an hour.

Great at selling cars. However the after sales is not very good. Found a couple of issues and they didn't want to know. They said you bought the car like that so tough luck. Having a problem with my head unit connecting to Cupra. They said they don't cover it as it doesn't affect the running of the car. I found this quite absurd as it was a selling point for me. Over all this has ruined my experience with this company. Make sure everything works and find problems before you sign for the car.

I’ve spent a week getting passed between sales and after sales trying to book in an alloy refurb and other small cosmetic repairs after driving 40 miles to Sheffield on Wednesday for my appointment and the correct person not being in. Why does all customer service seem to go to a call centre where everyone is clueless? I’ve been requesting a call back from Sheffield ever since or they can have their damaged car back.

Hilarious response- I’ve added a screenshot of this to the email thread I have going with the customer service email ignoring me.
