I requested that my car would be serviced by early afternoon. A time of 2:00pm was suggested but no promise was made, the car was finally handed over at 4:30pm. At no time was an update given, this left me hanging around with no clue when it would be available.

DO NOT BUY A JAGUAR

DO NOT BUY A JAGUAR! 9month update.
All I’ve had is issues with the car. It’s currently in with a fault even the jaguar engineers can’t seem to solve, had car 9months and I’m currently in my 7th week without it (was offered courtesy car at a cost of £25 per day even though I’m under warranty and would have been a long wait for one) Called sytner Bristol to complain and wanted to return the vehicle and basically politely told it’s tough and nothing they can do. Buying this car was the worst decision to make, wish I’d stuck with Volvo or ford!

Ipace Bristol to Glasgow

I purchased an approved Ipace from Sytner JLR Bristol and had the car delivered to me in Glasgow. The whole purchasing process was smooth and easy, with Philip Evans keeping me informed of progress throughout - even providing an in depth video of the car for my review. The car arrived on time, as arranged and in perfect condition. I'm very happy with both the car and the professional approach from Philip and all at JLR Bristol.

Very disappointing experience again.

Failed to complete basic maintenance I'd booked in for. Then left me high and dry without a car for 4 days as they bodged the simple brake job. Consistently poor performance, I wasn't the only customer left disappointed today.

Really poor standards

I’ve had my car serviced here for the last 3 services. Their prices are, as expected for a main dealer, quite high.
The standards are variable to say the least! Twice I have had to take my car back because there has been a failure to complete the service properly - no oil change (despite being charged for it) and no radiator top up (again despite it being on the paperwork as being done).
Also the last service has created an oil leak which has yet to be assessed - I’m sure it will be “coincidental” and that the problem happened in the 3 mile drive between the service centre and home!
I’m done with this franchise. I’ll be buying my next car elsewhere.

A pleasure to business with.

My new to me car purchase was exceptional, the Synter team really looked after me from start to finish. No question was to silly and they were happy to accommodate as much as they can. A special mention to Kieran, my sales exec. He has been truly superb throughout, very informative and polite but I'm more impressed with his after sales care. A car is a car and if it's what you want then great, but it's the people that make a true difference. I can highly recommend Synter Jaguar Bristol & Kieran.

Sytner Jaguar Bristol

I turned up with my ipace for a planned air con review (car less than 1 year old and AC not working); this was planned well in advance - I got all the reminders etc. I turned up on 11th Oct as planned - only to be told the AC parts hadn’t arrived - I struggled to understand why I hadn’t been advised before I turned up - my wife has arranged to take time off work to drive me home as no courtesy car - the customer advisor assured me they would get back in touch asap to reschedule with a courtesy car. It’s 2 weeks on and I’ve heard absolutely nothing! This is such poor customer service!
I’ve called in twice today (25th October) but no one able to help so awaiting a call back - second time I was told someone will definitely call back by close of play - no call back at all !! needless to say this has totally put me off JLR!!

Unfortunately customer service is poor.

Unfortunately customer service at JLR Bristol is poor.
My 5 year old e-pace needed a service and initially after a discussion and waiting in their reception for an hour, I was told they would not service the vehicle unless brake hoses, which have to be changed at 6 years (which is ridiculous anyway) where done at the same time as the service despite the car being 5 years old.

After many emails, many chases and non responses it was eventually booked in without the hoses being changed.

No courtesy cars, no time slots and no urgency. Reception staff are very poor and disinterested. A million miles from the service you get from BMW…and very poor for an alleged premium brand.

Between me and my wife we spent 2 hours sat in reception for a simple car service.

Not particularly helpful and zero urgency

I had been interested in an I pace for…

I had been interested in an I pace for months. I had a part exchange and synters have a valuation tool. I knew what it was worth using an independent valuation. When synters gave theirs it was so uncompetitive that I thought that was the end. However, synters contacted me, asked me what deal would interest me and set out to meet it. There was a period of about a week where what I was hoping to achieve was met and then exceeded. I dealt with multiple reps and they were all polite and professional. When I picked up the car I was made to feel special, the car was prepared to a very high standard and the handover comprehensive. I had a number of queries throughout and always had a quick and useful response even after the sale had been agreed.

Sytner usually means misery

If I see Sytner in the name of the dealership my heart sinks, and that's across all brands I've owned. Summarise my latest interaction, car needed MOT and a recall software update. On the phone the guy told me it would be about 2 hours. On arrival told me they want the car all day! The service rep saying that changing the rear lights could be up to two hours each. Point out it is 5 minute software update and even give the recall number. After disappearing for 15 minutes comes back and agrees. Gives me a time, which is missed by 90 minutes and I have to cancel a client meeting. Tyre needs replacing for MOT, not in stock. Tell them to do both tyres as other one marginal based on what I thought was a competitive price only to find out later it did not include VAT! Given a time to do the job, return day after then told completely different timeline, which again was missed. 60 minutes becomes 3.5 hours. Top it all the new tyres put straight on front axle rather than rear and swapping rear to front - all A-B-C stuff! They get 2 stars as the lady serving refreshments was really kind and friendly.

Disappointing…

I recently had a disappointing experience with Sytner Jaguar, Bristol. I purchased a car from them on a 24-month pcp lease plan, and after just 9 months of driving, the car developed faults that required repair. Sytner then had my car for apx four months, during which I received zero communication for three months regarding the status of the repairs or updates on the issues with my vehicle.

While I appreciated being given a loan car during this time, I was extremely dissatisfied with what I received. I spent a lot of money on an EV, but I was provided with a diesel loaner that was in terrible condition. It was very dirty, covered in dog hairs, and had visible body damage. This is not the level of service or quality I expected from a premium dealership.

I understand that repairs can take time, but the complete absence of communication and the poor quality of the loan car show a disregard for their customers.

Couldn’t give 5 out of 5

Had slight confusion when booking with call centre as I understood I had a wait slot, not leave it at a certain time and we’ll do it whenever! At the end of service I was handed sheet with what had been done but no interaction. Would be good to see a video of the service like Audi and BMW do! Nothing like as friendly as those garages either. A few things to work on as far as I’m concerned and other clients said the same.
