Overall the experience at RW Cars was fantastic

Overall the experience at RW Cars was fantastic. We arrived and had plenty of time to view all of the cars on offer without anyone pressuring us. When we decided to narrow our search down to two cars, Stewart was extremely helpful and again gave us the keys and the chance to make a very informed decision. We bought the car the day after the test drive and the whole process was very simple and Stewart was helpful and professional through. Amazing place to purchase a car and they are all very well prepared. I would recommend RW Cars to anyone in the market for a new vehicle.

I'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Stewart — he'll be delighted to know he helped you make such an informed decision. We take real pride in how well our cars are prepared, so that means a lot. Thank you for recommending us, and enjoy every mile in your new car!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Service from RW Cars…

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Service from RW Cars Derby

After a previous experience with a major car dealership where I was sold an unsafe vehicle and the brakes failed within just two weeks of purchase, I was understandably very nervous about buying another car. Thankfully, RW Cars Derby completely restored my confidence.

From the very beginning, Josh was absolutely fantastic. He provided support throughout the entire process, kept me updated, and made everything feel straightforward and stress-free. Harry was equally brilliant, helping along with Josh to secure a great finance deal and ensuring I found a deal that was right for me.

Both Josh and Harry were friendly, professional, proactive, and incredibly knowledgeable. They took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions, and never made me feel rushed or pressured. Their customer service was exceptional from start to finish.

I'm absolutely delighted with my new car and can honestly say that RW Cars have made all the difference to my car-buying experience. After my previous bad experience, they gave me confidence, reassurance, and genuinely excellent service.

I would highly recommend RW Cars Derby to anyone looking for a quality vehicle and a team that truly cares about its customers. Hopefully it will be a while before I want or need another car but when im ready.. ill be back 🫶😊 Thank you, Josh and Harry! 🚗⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Emma

Thank you so much, Em, for such a thoughtful review. We know how nerve-wracking it can be to buy again after a bad experience elsewhere, so it means the world that we could restore your confidence. Josh and Harry will be thrilled to hear how well looked after you felt, from keeping you updated to finding the right finance deal without any pressure. We're delighted you're loving your new car. Enjoy every mile, and whenever you're ready for the next one, we'll be right here waiting for you. Thanks again 🚗

We came for a browse as we needed a bigger car due to newborn and caught the eye of a Tiguan. Josh looked after us and made the whole process feel so easy and stress free. Even moving the pick up appointment a couple times, I still felt like there was no issue. 100% recommend!

Thank you so much, Courtney! Congratulations on your newborn — a Tiguan sounds like the perfect fit for your growing family. We're so pleased Josh made the whole process feel easy and stress free, and that shifting the pick-up appointment a couple of times was never a problem. Looking after you properly is exactly what we aim for. Thank you for the lovely recommendation, and we hope you're all enjoying the new car!

Great service and value

We bought a Nissan XTrail a few months ago, wanting to drive the car for a while before leaving a review. The car has been excellent. When we bought it, it had low mileage and was good value. Our experience in the showroom was great, no pressure, test drove the car on my own and the transaction was very smooth. Thanks Stewart so far so good.....

We're really pleased the showroom visit was relaxed and pressure-free, and that you enjoyed test driving it in your own time. Thanks for the kind words about Stewart too.

Part-Exchange review

We had Josh from start to finish. From the very beginning Josh took time to explain things and gave us the best deal possible for the car we liked. We had travelled three hours from where we lived, and it was certainly worth it. I would recommend this place and certainly Josh. We done a part-exchange for a new pcp car. No complaints at all, couldn’t be happier.

Travelling three hours is no small thing, so we're delighted it proved worthwhile and that the part-exchange onto your new PCP car went smoothly. Josh will be chuffed to hear his efforts made such a difference. Thank you for the kind recommendation, and enjoy every mile in your new car!
