Range Rover Sport purchase

Mark and David at Pentland Stirling made the whole process seamless and stress free. They managed my expectation all through the process. I travelled from Yorkshire to collect the vehicle knowing the finance could take a while to process. However, just over and hour of chatting later, I was on the road back home. Excellent service all round.

Amazing customer services

I have been trying to find my Land Rover Defender and I came across Pentland. Ross Alexander was amazing!. He took time to understand my needs and was able to find me the perfect specification and at a brilliant price. Ross was professional, friendly and his knowledge on the car and the process to secure it was amazing.

I am based in the Midlands and the car was going to be secured at the dealer- Ross made it worth me wanting to travel hundreds of miles to get the car!

I will use this dealer again when its time to renew my car.

Amazing service

Did not disclose faults

In April 2022, I bought a 3-year-old Land Rover Discovery Sport with 13,500 miles, assured of passing a 165-point inspection and 12-month warranty.

Six months later, an MOT check found severely corroded brake discs needing replacement, costing over £1,000.

Land Rover Stirling had noted these issues as an advisory issue in a pre-purchase check but never disclosed them.

It was only after I asked to see the Vehicle Health Check, 6 months later, that the faults were disclosed to me. They refused to cover repairs, blaming wear and tear after the sale.

Absolute joke of a place taken my Jaguar in to have abs pump fitted paid over 3000 pounds to get the car back with all the same fault codes and no abs, wanted another 700 pound to investigate what was wrong turns out it was because the mechanics didn't reprogram the new abs into the car phoned several times asking to speak to a manager for nearly 2 weeks now he's been in meetings and getting no where and still can't use the car disgrace of a place!!!

Shocking is the only world

Shocking is the only world. Approved used Land Rover purchased, bought via LR dealer as assumed spending the extra and having an approved LR warranty was the right thing. Honestly was the worst decision ever. Post sales support does not exist from Pentland Land River, if you choose to purchase through them just pray you never have any issues (given land rovers are notorious for errors odds on you will be back fairly soon for an issue). Telephone calls are regularly not returned, constant chasing, issues you would expect to be covered by the warranty are not - we had issues within 3-4 months of purchase (well known faults on land rovers and the Ingenium 2.0 Diesel engine) having bought fro Pentland Stirling and an approved Land Rover with a Land Rover warranty thought we would be more safe, or at least protected if a fault. How wrong we were, 6 weeks on still no resolution - who’d have thought such poor customer service was possible after such a short time of buying a car. I would strongly recommend if you are thinking of buying an LR avoid Pentland Land Rover Stirling and go to an alternative dealer in Glasgow or Edinburgh - may be further away but you will not regret it if you get an issue (which will be likely)

Appalling After Sales Support

Appalling After Sales Support - bought used LR Discovery Sport from Pentland - pre sales was ok but went down hill quickly and after sales support was non existent. If Brian Kennedy is your sales person - avoid at all costs in my opinion. 3 months after buying the dreaded turbo & DPF issue happened - even with the LR approved warranty and after only 3 months since buying the warranty does not cover and Pentland will not repair free of charge - utterly unbelievable - after 3 weeks and multiple calls / emails chasing still no resolution. Buy from Pentland at your peril and if you do avoid Brian Kennedy.

Terrible sevice - Don't waste your money

Rear brake pads needed replaced, after leaving the car at the garage for two days it still had not been done - disks needing replaced but did not bother to tell me until called. I took the car elsewhere to get the work done. When I dropped the car off originally I had queried a fault to see if the extended warranty covered it. Four months later, after 3 promises of returned calls and multiple visits, no response. The fault has now become dangerous, as I explained to them on various occasions. Customer service rep has still not forwarded the email address of the warranty advisor or the general manager, a month after walking in and asking them for it, repeated emails going unanswered. Still no follow up from the rep that answered on Trustpilot either.

Avoid Pentland Stirling

I have reported all the issues about the car several times. A smashed mirror, MOT, noise when parked, and the buttons next to the driver seat to open and close the windows didn’t work at all, and the 96.000 service. They booked me in for 3 times and they have cancelled them all last minute. Then the 4th booking, finally they didn’t cancel, and I took the car to the service. They sent me emails to authorise, I did immediately. It was a Thursday, Callum, the staff who dealt with me, said it would be ready on Friday, it wasn’t. Phoned him twice, he said it would be ready on Monday, it wasn’t! I had to rent a car from Enterprise from Thursday till Monday. After 5 days (they didn’t provide me a courtesy car), they said all has been fixed and charged me about £3.000. After paying, taking the car key and getting in the car, surprise! seeing half of the job wasn’t even done! Then went back to the office to ask for the details. When I spoke to Danny, who says he is the front house manager, his attitude was so arrogantly rude! All nonsense answers and questions from him. I still can’t believe Pentland Stirling has such kind of incapable staff calling themselves manager. They didn’t even accept that it was their mistake! Ridiculous, unprofessional, worthless service!
