I recently bought a new car from caffyns Audi worthing
I recently bought a new car from caffyns and it was such a pleasant easy experience. Simon who dealt with my purchase and part exchange was amazing so a special thank you to him. Anybody else that I had contact with either in person. By phone or by email was very friendly and professional. Nothing was too much trouble and it was the smoothest car purchase I have ever had. My new car was presented perfectly and every aspect of the car was explained very clearly. I could not be happier. Thank you everyone at caffyns Audi worthing

Skoda YETI parcel shelf
Replacement parcel shelf - Skoda Yeti. Spotted a suitable item online and emailed my registration to check compatibility. Nick of Caffyns Tunbridge Wells replied within 30 minutes to confirm a match. Item was good value compared to the price of tatty second hand options on various sites and next day delivery was only £11.74
Quality item, efficient service and speedy delivery. Thank you 😃👍

My MG ZS experience.
My car, MG ZS just 3 years old and 13,000 miles, was transported to the Ashford Site on 3 June 2024, following a breakdown. Seemed to be a failed Clutch! Advised that it was not registered on MG Computer System confirmed by Call to MG H.O., but would be looked at on 20th. They would Call me. They did not! I contacted MG Agent where car was purchased who forwarded 'confidential Servicing' details direct to Caffyns thus enabling Registration on System. Then told Car was in Workshop requiring new Gearbox, at 3 years/13,000 miles. I have never in 70 years of driving had a failed Clutch or Gearbox! Further Call, early July to Caffyns, revealed it was outside again with Part 'on Order'. I called 3x today, 15 July, to be told that I would be called back! I have received Neither an Email nor a Call as to present situation.

They have no idea!
Very poor service when i had my Audi serviced there. I paid the bill and then realised there were different mileages on the invoice and on the service book/car! They said it was not possible to change it! When i go to sell the car, it looks really suspicious having 2 different mileages on the service invoice and in the car service so i said i would stay until it was changed. Surprise, surprise, 10 minutes later, the mileages matched. Never going back there again.

They have no idea about customer service
I have submitted reviews previously but what a shower this place is, never again will I use this company once the warranty expires.
Numerous problems since purchased, recent one battery low warning (not done even 10,000 miles) it’s not as if it’s not used, called last Friday shocked that someone actually answered & since battery has totally died, 5 calls on keep being told an advisor will call you back but not a peep.
Actually just had a call, can take it in 20 days time! it’s a disgrace. Now got a car sitting outside that I can’t even move.

Excellent Vauxhall and MG dealerships
I originally intended to buy a Vauxhall from Caffyns and was very impressed by the way Joshua delt with my enquiry but the car I eventually purchased was an MG from Caffyns and delt with by James who was equally friendly and professional. The sales personnel in both franchises made the customer feel very valid.

Great car and super service :)
I recently purchased a used car from Volvo Eastbourne (Caffyns). I did this online and needed delivery of the vehicle. The car was exactly as described and I was very impressed with the exceptional service I received from their Sales Exec. Ben. His communication was excellent at every stage of the process and he even delivered the car himself! Very pleased with both the car and their service.

Very poor after sales service
Very poor after sales service, I wrote to the After Sales Manager who did not even acknowledge my letter, he passed it to a member of his team who was on holiday for 2 weeks. I am having issues with a brand new A3 on going for 18 months. The car has been in & out of the dealership throughout this time. This is the second car from them to have a problem they have been unable to fix. They are quick enough to sell you a car but not so good at the customer service bit. Check out the history page on Caffyns web site where it states "Caffyns have not lost sight of their founders’ values of personal, friendly service and customer care offered by their long term commitment to both the car and the customer." Not sure this is still the case, I suspect Mr Caffyn senior maybe turning in his grave. I was going to complain to their HQ but have seen one review where it says they do not even reply so perhaps I see a trend developing here. Standing by waiting for the cut & paste reply to this review. Think very carefully before buying from Caffyns, other dealerships are available.

Never again
Never again. Utter shambles from start to finish from Caffyns MG Ashford. I'm just writing this now after the warranty has run out in case I needed them to fix anything, not that they probably would. It started with the car not being prepared on time, all the agreed touch ups not being carried out, the car not MOT'd or serviced, even a bolt missing from one of the wheels! They put new brake pads on top of old brakes discs. My car must have spent 6 weeks on their forecourts (the service stuff is carried out by the Skoda arm) and even then not everything was fixed. Not much communication and continually having to chase them up. I even collected my car with more damage than when it went in as somebody had backed it into a wall when moving it. Beware

Dishonest dealership
Very poor communication. Don’t expect to get what you’re paying for. When I asked if my new vehicle would be taxed and MOTd they said yes. But I’m collection they wanted me to pay for the tax, fortunately they covered the MOT. Am now checking it has everything else they said it would come with. Missold!

Car was collected exactly when you said it would be-Good feed back from mechanic re service and MOT. and then cleaned ( which is always appreciated ) and delivered back to my drive.
Subsequently Phil very helpfully installed the My Audi App so that I could continue with Google Maps.

Good Experience
Secured an XC90 used on line and by phone. Car was exactly as advertised, trade in was accepted following a video sent to dealer and the handover was seamless.Paul Masterson and Chris Milnes were decisive, offered a good trade, provided a great service. I would use them again tomorrow.
