Placed an online order on August 18/08 for multiple parts needed for an engine rebuild. Recieved an email on 19/08 stating that some parts would need to be ordered from germany and some were out of stock. Replied within the hour asking for the parts to be ordered and the out of stock items to be refunded so i could order from elsewhere. Never got any response by email.
Waited 10 days with no order update at all so i tried to call the parts department to get an update and was told that someone would call me back later that afternoon.
Never got any call back at all and had to phone in a further 5 times to be told the exact same thing everytime and still never recieved any sort of call back at all.

Finally was sent an email after the 5th call pn 04/09 stating the same issues with the order that i had already been informed of on the 19/08 and had already asked for the parts to be ordered.

I replied asking to cancel the order as i cannot wait possibly another 10 working days for parts that should already have been on order.
Again never recieved a response to this email and had to call a further 2 more times in order to cancel my order.

I’ve been ordering parts from bmw main dealers for years and this is by far the worst experience with the worst customer service that i’ve gone through.

Definitely would not be ordering from here again and would not recommend anyone else do so either

Dont waste your time with the parts dept at Stevenage

I placed an online order for several parts for my M4 on the 27th of June. After the order system not updating by the 30th, i sent an email asking for a despatch date as i needed the parts before the 7th of July(which i stated to them) as that is the date they were being fitted. This email went unanswered so i emailed again on the 1st of July saying i urgently needed a reply by the close of business. Again no reply so i sent a cancellation request on the evening of the 1st and ordered elsewhere. Today, the 3rd, still no reply or update on the system about the order or cancellation but a note on their website saying they are closed from the 3rd to the 6th of July for stock taking and orders would be delayed at least 4 days.
I sent a sternly worded email to the parts manager to say this was the worst service i had ever had from a BMW main dealer and it was good job i had ordered elsewhere or my car wouldnt be completed. I stated i would be writing an online review of my experience. I did receive a fairly prompt reply after this threat, with a hollow appology and that the parts had actually arrived yesterday, which is of no consequence now as i collected the replacement parts today from another dealer. Now need to wait 3 days for my refund. Obviously i cant recomend this dealer and would never consider using them again.No need for a reply to this review as there is no excuse for customer service this bad.

A old timer

I have purchased more BMWs than I should have over the past 40 years.
Most from specialist cars/sytners.
My 2 most recent an X3 m sport 3.0 diesel and more recently a I x3 m sport.
The salesman on both occasions was Derek Baker.
Old school (like myself) knows his stuff does what he promises.

Friendly and welcoming staff.

We visited Sytner Stevenage to look for a new car, we were welcomed by a young lad called Albie. He asked us if he could assist us in any way to which we said we were just looking for now. We left but came back the next day and was welcomed by Albie again, we wanted to look at a car so Albie got the keys and explained everything to us, he took us for a test drive and finally passed us onto the sales staff but we were asked if we minded having Albie down as part of the sale as he had gone above and beyond for us during our 2 visits. The sales team were great, we felt relaxed throughout and everything was explained during the process. We were supposed to collect the new car up on the Tuesday but they phoned and offered to drive it to us. The car is great and would definitely use Sytner again if we ever want a new car.

More bad news

More bad news. Another fault :(

It is now ten months since I bought an approved used BMW X3 M40i from Sytner BMW Stevenage. The engine management light come on Monday. I contact Sytner (because the car come with 12 months waranty) and they wanted £150 to investigate the fault and could not guarantee whether or not it would be cover under their 12 months approved used car warranty.
Most fault can now diagnose by plugging into the car's on board computer with the latest equipment within minutes. How do they justify £150 cost is beyond reasonable. I've been told that even if the fault or repair is cover under the warranty,the £150 fee is not refundable. The so called meticulous check on all approved used car could not be trusted.

Avoid

Never usually leave any reviews but really feel the need to review Sytner Stevenage. What should have been an easy sale for the staff there has been one of the most painful experiences of my life. I would certainly avoid them. Even as a cash buyer you get messed around to the point of eventually giving up. Certainly the staff I have dealt with are good at one thing, not selling cars.

Hitchin Body Shop - Jason & Peter, Top Professionals

My BMW went in for alloy refurb and some minor cosmetic work at the Hitchin Body Shop. Both Jason Wright and Peter were thoroughly professional, friendly and gave good advice. Job was completed professionally and the standard of service from both Jason & Peter was very pleasing. Would not hesitate to recommend.

Exceptional sales service and communication.

This is my 8th new BMW and my first time at the Stevenage dealer. I was found the perfect car within a day of my call and secured it the day after. Communication was exceptional as well as after care. Thank you so much to both Pauls for a stress free, friendly and enjoyable experience. I will travel to this dealer in future, a 70
mile round trip, even though I have 2 others on my door step. Highly recommend.

Terrible customer service.

Terrible customer service.

I have had my BMW services by Syntner BMW in Stevenage since new.

Before Christmas 2024, I tried to book an MOT and Service. I called them a few times but couldn't get anyone. I left a voicemail and was assured that I would get a callback. After a few days, I tried again without success. I then booked a service online and was given 06/01/2025 as the date. Finally, a few days later, I emailed them and got a response saying, "sorry the online system didn't go through im afraid and the 6th is fully booked up now", and that "the earliest date is now Wednesday the 8th of January at 9am".

I've now booked it for today (03/01/2025) with another, more reputable company.

Really disappointed with the standard and quality. Left a very visible cable unplugged. Had to refit it myself.
God knows what they've done to the bits I can't see.

The level of service received from both Chris and Anna in the sales team at the BMW Sytner Stevenage dealership over the weekend was nothing short of outstanding. They were both very patient, professional, empathetic and understanding of our requirements during the sales process. A professional service offered throughout, with a suitable solution to match, which allowed a deal opportunity to remain open. Thank you both for your service on the day - BMW should be proud to have you in their employ. Thanks, David
