AVOID

Ihave already left a review and shockingly it got worse.
My last review was Mar 2, 2026 (which despite their reply they weren’t interested in)
Now we need a new tyre which we booked in for but the garage couldn’t do because we has no wheel nut removal key, my husband asked about this when we got the car and was told we don’t need one!
So back to Toomey Citroen AGAIN to be told, basically, hard luck!! So as far as they’re concerned it’s fine to sell us a car without the correct equipment!!
It costs an extra £100 for the garage to take the wheel off without the key!

Would recommend …

Having made a previous visit when I couldn't find what I was looking for I was contacted by Richard Pemberton. He suggested that I should come up and view some of the stock they had. I made a return visit on Friday and was greeted by Ben Hughes who showed me around one of the type of vehicles that I am interested in, I found him to be very knowledgeable and explained the features of the car. I look forward to a return visit in the very near future, thanks to both of you for your assistance. I shall be returning 🙂

I’ve had to call Toomey Citroen and…

I’ve had to call Toomey Citroen and Toomey Renault a few times for parts. Had to wait over 15 minutes nearly every time I’ve called. Whilst on hold it kept sending me back to the main options and asking me to choose an option again. You really need to sort out the time it takes to answer calls.

service department went the extra mile

We had such a fantastic experience with the service department at Toomeys Basildon. We booked our new Citroen in for a recall. The booking process was very easy. Drop off and collection was also very easy. Courtesy car was clean and similar size to our current car. The service advisor Gio even moved my car seats back out of the courtesy car and into our car as it was raining so I could stay dry with my children. I can't tell you how grateful I was for that, he truly went the extra mile for us. Thank you Gio!!

Easy process from start to finish

Easy process from start to finish. Gio was extremely helpful in trying to find solutions to issues I had and kept me informed of progress throughout. Extremely happy with repairs and service received from booking process, the finding a suitable hire car and the work carried out.

Disappointed

The service when we bought the car was lovely and all seemed well…
However then took well over a month to get the second key and just had an MOT just over 5 months since buying it and the car needs 2 new tyres!!! We’ve hardly done any miles since the purchase so really disappointed ☹️

Dear Lynne,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback.

We’re really pleased to hear that you were happy with the service you received at the point of purchase. However, we’re genuinely sorry to read about your concerns regarding the delay with the second key and the recent MOT result. We completely understand how disappointing this must feel.

Unfortunately, we’re unable to locate your details based on your review name alone. Could you please contact us at customerrelations@toomeymotorgroup.co.uk with your full name and vehicle registration number? This will allow us to investigate the matter thoroughly and provide you with a full response.

We would very much appreciate the opportunity to look into this properly.

Kind regards

I have had my fiat 600 from toomey Basildon for 4 months and it was just over a year old when purchased. It has been back to the service department numerous times for dashboard faults they get factory reset and they keep appearing back once this week and lasted under 24 hours and yes on again. One fault was serious a engine mounting bolt came loose resulting in the engine moving back and forth, and the RAC towed it back. Keep trying to get hold of them by phone is a joke and when eventually I got through promises of return calls dont happen. Worse motor group I have ever dealt with in my 51 years of driving.

Dear Mr Rivers,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear about the frustration you have, and we do appreciate how concerning unexpected issues can be.

Since your purchase, our team has carried out the required manufacturer software updates and inspections in line with the guidance provided by the manufacturer. On the occasion your vehicle was recovered to us, our technicians completed a full inspection and checks to ensure the vehicle was safe to return to you and at the time of testing the vehicle was operating correctly.

We understand your ongoing concerns and want to reassure you that we remain committed to supporting you in diagnosing and resolving any issues should they occur. Although vehicle collection is not a service we typically offer, we arranged to collect the vehicle from your address in order to assist you and progress the matter as quickly as possible. Due to the short notice nature of this arrangement and our current fleet availability, we will continue to keep you informed regarding the availability and supply of a loan vehicle.

With regard to requests such as potential goodwill measures, these decisions sit directly with the vehicle manufacturer. We would recommend contacting the manufacturer’s customer relations team to review your case. Should they require any supporting information from us regarding the work carried out on your vehicle, we will of course be happy to assist them.

We appreciate your patience and thank you for giving us the opportunity to support you with your vehicle.

Kind regards,
Toomey Fiat Basildon
