“Great service ”

★★★★★

written by on 17/07/2023

We were very satisfied with the whole process of buying our new car from First4Car. The whole process was hassle free from start to finish, and we greatly appreciated not been hassled on the forecourt from when we arrived. The fact we arrived and were left alone and that we had to come and ask for help is what made the process easy for us as this is what we prefer. We visited numerous local dealerships and within ten minutes or so of been on the forecourt at these other locations we were been followed around by salesmen. Dealing with First4Car is one of the best customer service experiences we have had, the knowledge and how the sale was conducted throughout was professional and friendly. At no point did we feel we were being forced into buying the vehicle, at no point did we feel like we were been misled or misinformed just to secure the sale. Thank you for your patience with us and we made numerous phone calls which can be annoying but the staff members who answered assisted us right from the outset and were brilliant. We’ve recommended you guys to family and friends based on our experience and we’ll be returning whenever the time comes to get a new car, but we’re happy with our purchase ????????! The dealership has a nice look and feel to it too, it just seems the right place to go to for a car!

“Great Deal”

★★★★★

written by walker17 on 25/05/2016

Found this place by chance and very glad I did. Easy test drive and though worried about the finance going through all was explained clearly and calmly. I drove away my new Golf within the hour, so happy. Thanks to everyone at First4car. One very happy customer and would have no hesitation to recommending to others. Cheers guys.

Returned to First4car after previous good experience and again wasn't disappointed. Even bigger range of cars available; the team were friendly and helpful - no question too trivial to ask for a single lady with a lack of car knowledge! Would recommend to others.

“Rubbish ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Oldenmalicious on 06/05/2016

I went to this dealer yesterday - apathy buy the salesmen is an understatement I don't think I looked the ' right' kind of buyer for them despite being able to actually afford the most expensive car they stocked . Test drove a car - engine management light was on tyres were well worn despite offering a cash sale ( at a very slightly reduced price) I was told to call tomorrow I phoned at 9.30 am and I'm still waiting for a call 12 hours later My money is going elsewhere as are any recommendations

Written on: 09/05/2016

We are sorry to hear you felt you had a negative experience when coming to view a car at First4car. If you were made to feel your business wasn't important to us this is not the standard of customer service that I expect from my staff. I sincerely hope the salesman involved did explain that the car you test drove had not yet been through our workshops for its full inspection, service and MOT, therefore an engine management light being on would certainly be resolved and tyres replaced if necessary prior to any sale. All our retail cars also come with a comprehensive warranty for your peace of mind. Unfortunately we were not able to offer the price you wished for your part exchange and therefore our salesman believed you were going to look at another garage and hence did not call you after your visit. We also price our cars very competitively and for this reason are not always able to negotiate on price.
All I can do at this stage is apologise and I assure you the salesman involved has been spoken to regarding maintaining our high levels of customer care at all times and communicating effectively with customers. Once again I am sorry you felt disappointed with your visit to First4car.

“wasted journey”

★★☆☆☆

written by neil1960 on 01/04/2016

This company might be ok if you're on the doorstep but don't travel any distance. They'll quite happily sell the car you've arranged to see in front of you & greet you with 'oh this happens all the time'

Written on: 13/04/2016

Firstly let me apologise for your disappointment. I am unsure whether you rang before setting off to view the vehicle. We always advise any caller that if they are coming a distance please call to confirm they are on their way and we will hold the vehicle until they get to us, to save them having a wasted journey.
Once again I apologise if you did call to say you were coming and this did not get communicated between the salesmen and the car was sold when you arrived. Customer service is a high priority at First4car but unfortunately from time to time mistakes can happen.

I bought a second hand motor at a cheap price £2000 it was an astra with slight damage, and with a recomendation of the cam belt to be done. I couldnt ask for more the salesman was polite and helpful. I see reveiws on here being angry about the cars they have bought but what do you expect from a second hand car!!! I have now changed my cam belt on my car yess i did come accross a second (minor) problem but hey i got the car at a steal. Overall i am very pleased and would definately come back to firstforcar

Thank you for your review. We are glad to hear you are happy with your car. Cheap run arounds such as this are brought into our garage as a part exchange. Our mechanics give them a quick test drive to allow our salesmen to notify a customer of any work that may need doing. We then sell them as cheap as we can as we need the room for our retail cars. These type of cars fly out as they are as you point out a steal!! This benefits us as a garage to move the car on quickly to allow us room for our retail stock and benefits you guys the customers if you are looking for a bargain!

“Amazing Customer Service”

★★★★★

written by Hunter75 on 21/05/2015

Thank you to First4car for an amazing service purchasing my car. I bought a car from them about 3 months ago and absolutely love it. I have just been back on the website to look for a car for my partner and came across a negative review. All I can say is the person who left the review must have a bee in their bonnet as the service I received was very professional and they genuinely cared about my car needs. You can tell as soon as you enter the garage this is a reputable garage selling cars that have been well looked after. I would not hesitate to recommend this garage to family & friends.... Great work guys

“Sudden Increase in Price????”

★★☆☆☆

written by Rubi321 on 30/01/2015

Myself and my wife enquired about a Grand C-Max that was up for £11,000. We expressed interest in it straight away and asked if we could do a deal. All we got was a big NO. Now, after enquiring, a few hours later the same car had mysteriously increased by £250. The salesman stated that all cars they sell are priced for actual sale. Poor.

First4Carcom's Comment

Written on: 09/02/2015

I am sorry to hear that you are not happy with your experience at First4car. You are right in that the price of the C-Max increased over the period of time you were looking at the car. All our prices are checked daily using the latest technology to ensure we're competitively priced within the market, therefore prices at times will increase and at other times decrease. A number of garages are using this system as it makes sure that cars remain competitively priced at all times. Cars are just like other items in that they fluctuate in value. We always state that if a customer has seen the car at a lower price we would always honour that price. I believe that this was explained to you at the time and the lower price honoured, however unfortunately you chose not to go ahead with the deal. I apologise if the change in price was not explained in a manner that put your mind at ease. We are a professional, honest garage that work hard to provide excellent value for money to our customers as well as providing a positive buying experience.

“Confused for reviews”

★★★☆☆

written by peacegrip on 10/01/2015

Car advertised by them as vauxhall. When i paid deposit and was shown paperwork. It was opel. Salesman said its same but to me it wasnt. Car chase had to end somehow. So agreed to buy it. Hang on a minute, i cant road tax the car because its got previous owners personal number on it. Now what. Was told to wait until christmas holidays pass. After 3 weeks i got it but i have mixed feelings. If i hadnt this problem. It would have been 5 stars. I feel there had to be a small discount but not applicable they say. I missed my sales shopping and holidays. Lookforward to buy from them again in future. Good presentation and honesty efforts were present. Overall its a good deal

Hi there. Both Vauxhall and Opel are owned by General Motors and produce the same cars. Vauxhall is however the UK branding name. The paperwork showing Opel means the car was registered outside the UK but is still the same car as a Vauxhall.
With regard to the road tax the car was undergoing a plate transfer therefore we were awaiting the Log Book to be returned from the DVLA. Unfortunately our hands are tied in that the DVLA state it can take upto 6 weeks for the return of a Log Book. Without the Log Book the car could not be taxed. Therefore this situation was completely out of our control. I'm sorry you feel you missed out on some of your sales shopping due to this. I hope this explains your concerns and I am happy to hear that you would come back to us in the future. Many thanks.

Went to look at a car looked good on the photos but disappointed when i saw it as filthy and stuffed in a corner,lack of service history,needs cam belt,scratched and required major surgery on 1 alloy excessive miles and high on price as they are better ones with less mileage and cheaper elsewhere and then the sales guy was not willing to move on anything anyway....

Written on: 04/08/2014

We are sorry to hear you were not happy with your experience at First4car. We are a very busy garage selling well over 1000 cars a year. Unfortunately space is limited therefore if we know customers are coming to look at a specific car we will move the car out so it is easily accessible, we would have also made sure the car was up to standard. As the turnover of stock is high there are times when cars are awaiting preparation yet are still on the forecourt. This is not ideal however with it being holiday season too we do have a number of staff on holiday. With regard to the price we price our cars competitively and believe you would not have come to view the car if this was not the case. All I can do is apologise if the salesman involved came across as unhelpful. I will speak to the sales staff regarding this. Once again I apologise for your disappointment.
