Stephen Rooney @ Stirling PLR

Stephen Rooney was the sales consultant, in Stirling, who was friendly and negotiated hard, with his boss, to achieve an acceptable trade-in price. He also repaired the chip/scratch on my new Evoque, which was terrific.

BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE

BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE
Buying experience when entering Lookers Jaguar Land Rover showroom Hillington Glasgow 2023
Second to none. VIP treatment.
Agreed to purchase a beautiful Range Rover Evoque Autobiography 2017 edition. 60k on the clock.
Presented to me under a red cloth reveal. Keys in a lovely presentation box. Wonderful, so happy, so special.
I have never experienced the purchasing of a car like this before. And I’ve had several cars in my over 30 years of
driving. Two brand new cars and several second hand, all from dealers, as a precaution, if things go wrong.
Eighteen miles on from leaving the showroom with this wonderful car, it came to a standstill on the motorway.
OOPS. Recovery vehicle back to the showroom.
On hindsight this is where I should have walked away. But again VIP treatment. I was given courtesy use of a brand
new VELOR 73 miles on clock whilst they fixed the broken down EVOGUE.
A faulty DPF was the issue.
When repaired it was driven to my door and the VELOR was picked up. My home is 5 hours drive from Glasgow.
Awe what a great organisation this Land Rover firm are. Good British Brand.
In local garage September and November 2024 for new alternator, crank pulley, battery, coil springs, tires, brake
pads discs and new reverse camera (water ingress on existing one). 69k on the clock.
Went on holiday for several weeks beginning of this year (not with car) and when back home and driving, heard
knocking from the back. Then battery would not keep a charge and boot would not stay closed.
In local garage diagnosed needing new haldex unit and a leak from windscreen
On 15th April I contacted Hillington branch and was told the warranty would not cover local garage repairs.
It had to be repaired at a Land Rover specialist as they use “prestige” Land Rover parts
Nearest branch Inverness who refused it when I told them the issues.
Hillington couldn’t look at it until October at the earliest.
Pentland Stirling booked it in for 30th April.
On the back of a recovery van at my expense (£660) off to Pentland Stirling it went.
Repaired, serviced, MOTed and ready for collection 30th May.
Time delay in collection due to work commitments and distance (5 hours drive away) my daughter picked it up
August. Mouldy, cob webs, spiders, stinking and still leaking.
When I emailed them for explanation on the condition, I was emailed back, told windscreen had been repaired and
no leaks detected but it was a health hazard for them to clean it.
Last week I contacted them three times for the documented proof that the leak had been fixed.
On third call they conceded they could not find proof so I asked to speak with a manager.
No return calls or communications.
Cleaned it myself to pristine condition and yesterday I got rid of it for less than all the repairs cost dreading that this
leak was causing more damage. 72k on the clock.
Range Rover parts are more than 4 times the price of normal garage parts. Making any warranty a false prophet.
After numerous request I have yet to speak with management of either Stirling Land Rover or Lookers Jaguar Land
Rover Hillington Glasgow.
Do not be sucked in like I was. 12k miles driven and over £26k out of pocket and I don’t have a car.
Look at the reviews on Trustpilot. (I wish I had) Unfortunately this is not an isolated incident
Trading Standards are my next avenue

Dear Kim,

Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed account of your experience. We are truly sorry to read the difficulties you’ve faced with your Evoque and the disappointment this has caused you.

We would like to make it clear that Pentland Land Rover was not the selling retailer for your vehicle, and we are not part of the Lookers group who you mention in your review. That said, we do note that your vehicle was later booked in at Pentland Stirling, and we are now investigating thoroughly everything that took place during your time with us there.

We completely understand how upsetting it must have been to go through repeated issues, especially after placing your trust in the Land Rover brand. Please be assured that your concerns have been taken seriously, and we are reviewing what happened at our Stirling retailer so we can provide you with a full response.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention.

Many thanks,
Sara

My car went for an MOT

My car went for an MOT, courtesy wash and it was dirtier that I sent it to the point the driver who returned the car apologised. Called the Stirling Land Rover branch, no call back !! I would honestly have never sent anything back to a customer like that. It looked like it had been in a Sahara Rain Storm.

Dear Grugen,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are very sorry to hear about your recent experience, this is far from the level of service we strive to deliver, and we completely understand your frustration.

Your car should never have been returned to you in that condition, and we regret that you were also left waiting on a call back. Please accept our sincere apologies.

I understand that our Manager has since spoken with you directly and offered to arrange for your vehicle to be brought back in for a full valet at a time convenient to you. We hope this will help to put things right.

Your experience matters greatly to us, and we remain committed to restoring your confidence in our service.
Many thanks,
Sara

Dear David,

Thank you for sharing your experience. We completely understand how frustrating it can feel to see a vehicle’s value change. Unfortunately, depreciation is something that affects all vehicles and is influenced by a range of market factors outside of our control.

That said, we are genuinely sorry that this has left you feeling disappointed with your ownership experience. We appreciate your past custom and will take your feedback on board to ensure we are doing everything possible to offer the best value and service to our clients.

Many thanks,
Sara

Avoid John Clark - Pentland Land Rover Stirling

Abysmal customer service!

I just made a 60 mile round trip from my home to Stirling to get a fault repaired (Ad Blu sensor not working), which was reported last time my vehicle was in and absolutely nothing was done about it then.

(I had paid around £70,000 for my Defender 110 at John Clark Motor Group in Perth).

My car was booked in for 8AM, and I had requested a courtesy car, which was confirmed.  I got there at 8AM on the dot on Friday morning, was kept waiting for 30 minutes and basically ignored until I went back to reception and explained that I had been waiting for 30 minutes.  The service representative said she’d gone looking for me, which is nonsense.  The other staff member was quite abrupt and has no concept of customer service. I went through all the rigmarole of getting the car checked in, then only to be told that there was no courtesy car for me.  I was told that if I could wait a few hours they’d get it seen to as quickly as possible.  It has cost me time and money to take time off work, and I couldn’t afford to wait around there all morning.  I cancelled the appointment and will get my car dealt with elsewhere (not at your company).

Also last time my car was booked in, I explained that I needed a repair done to my front driver side wing.  I was told by one staff member about one month ago, that someone would call me from the body shop.  One week later still nobody had called.  I called the service department back and explained this on 2 occasions. I also left a message for her to call me back, which she didn’t.  I still haven’t received a callback.  I’ve booked my car into another body shop for repair next week.

That’s both body repair work and service business you’ve lost, as I won’t be back. This is the worst vehicle service department I’ve ever dealt with in my 45 years of driving. 

Also the person I was dealing with for the last service had the nerve to email me on the 26th of June, asking me to consider scoring her a 10 for questions 1 and 14 on the forthcoming survey, which I did.  With hindsight, this was a mistake, as there’s been no follow up on my previous enquiry about the body shop and also today’s experience was the last straw.

I won’t be back.

Dear Mr Walmsley,

We are truly sorry to read about your recent experience, and we sincerely apologise for the frustration and inconvenience caused. It is very disappointing to hear that we have fallen short of the standards of service we aim to deliver, particularly given the time and effort you invested in travelling to our site.

Your feedback regarding the booking process, courtesy car arrangements, communication, and follow-up on the body shop repair is deeply concerning. We understand how frustrating it must have been to experience these issues, especially after placing your trust in us with such an important purchase. Please be assured that we are taking this matter seriously and have begun investigating the events you’ve described to understand what went wrong and ensure it is addressed internally.

We value your feedback and will be using it to make immediate improvements. Once our review is complete, we will provide an update on the actions taken.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and again, we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and disappointment caused.

Many thanks,
Sara
