Over the moon
We purchased our car from Aiden who was super helpful and very knowledgable of the product we were purchasing.
Aiden spent time ensuring that we were purchasing the right car for us.
We picked our car up yesterday and we love the car.
Thank you Aiden and team for the pleasant streamlined experience.
Absolutely flawless

Dan was brilliant today when we collected our new Jaecoo from Chapelhouse. From start to finish he was friendly, professional and really easy to deal with. He kept us updated, explained everything clearly, and made the handover smooth and stress-free.
The car was presented perfectly and Dan took the time to go through the key features and paperwork without rushing us. Really great service all round, would happily recommend Dan and Chapelhouse to anyone picking up a new car.

Bunch of jokers and lairs
Bunch of jokers and lairs. I called and booked an appointment next day to test drive 2 cars. I arrived. The lady i spoke to confirmed my appointment with Josh . When I arrived. No ones knows what the hivk is going on. Josh denies knowledge of me coming to text drive 2 cars. Also he was so rude. I spoke to another guy he says the car is not available. In 2 minutes cars arrived to show it to another coustomer.
You GUYS ARE JOKE and LAIR .
Avoid dealing with this people especially Josh biggest lair

We’re very sorry to hear about the issues you encountered at Chapelhouse MG Bolton regarding your test drive appointment and the behaviour you experienced. The situation you describe — miscommunication, unavailability of vehicles, and rudeness — is completely unacceptable and falls far short of the service standard we aim to provide.
We take concerns like yours very seriously. We strongly encourage you to contact our Customer Experience Team directly on customercarebolton@chapelhouse.co.uk so your case can be fully investigated and escalated to senior management. Our priority is to address this matter properly and ensure it does not happen again.
Fantastic service from Dan Gargan at…
Fantastic service from Dan Gargan at the Southport (Ainsdale) branch. I called in simply to have a look at the cars in the flesh, so to speak, and was very impressed by the knowledgeable and no-pressure approach he presented. In fact, that was a major factor in my confidence in working with him. He made the whole experience very positive and responded well to all the issues which presented themselves as we went through the process. I'm always cautious about giving five-star reviews as it could be taken as a simple default position, but in this case, there could be no other option (and no; I'm not being paid to say that and I'd never met him before walking into the showroom, just to be clear!). The whole experience left me feeling very confident that he had done the best he could to address my needs.

Avoid at all costs
Reserved a car, did everything which was asked of me then they went and sold it to someone else after telling me it was coming to me with their story changing every contact. Had to chase them for information and they didn't even have the decency to call me back and emailed instead. Disgraceful way to treat people and I would avoid at all costs

Highly recommend this guy

Really good customer service - Gary (and the rest of the staff I spoke to!) was friendly, helpful and just really lovely .

Very pleasant experience
Very pleasant experience, visited to have a look at an Omoda 5, Nathan handled our experience in the showroom, he was very polite and well spoken, was not pushing for us to sign or agree to anything on the day which was a positive, let us take our time and look round the car and took us on a test drive, was very knowledgeable about the car and all the tech inside.
Will more than likely be returning to finalise an agreement.
Overall a very good experience and would recommend

Get everything in writing.
My daughter has been in dispute with this company for over 12 months. Been through the ombudsman which was a waste of time as they don't understand engine problems and the internal damage done when diesel gets into the oil. Chapel house Warrington lied to her and me from start to finish. The sales team from top to bottom seem to suffer from memory loss following our conversations. Buyer beware. Will never use this company again go to a reputable company

We’re very sorry to hear about the ongoing issues your daughter has faced with her vehicle at Chapelhouse Suzuki Warrington.

We’re very sorry to hear about the way your situation was handled by our team, including the response from Emma Kingston at Chapelhouse Suzuki St Helens. It’s completely understandable that being blamed and given a minimal response after your previous issues would be frustrating and unacceptable.
This matter will be escalated immediately to senior management so they are fully aware of the ongoing communication issues and the way your case has been handled.
We sincerely apologise for the repeated stress and poor communication you’ve experienced.
Avoid Chapelhouse Southport Service Dept
My car was booked in for a service and MOT under a Service Plan (that I was pressured to buy last year as the only way Ainsdale branch would honour the free MOT for life which I can see from other reviews I am not alone). Car dropped off before 9am. Asked for it to be ready before 3 if possible. It was literally a catalogue of errors from beginning to end. Report and video sent about 1pm with actions needed. Details on report contradicted video. Phoned them to ascertain what was correct. Parts ordered and told car would be ready same day. Shortened version of events was endless calls to Chapelhouse. Wrong parts received. Had to order again. Called for payment without knowing if the works were complete. More calls. Close to 5pm and still no guarantee the car would be ready which I needed for work the next day. More calls. Eventually received a call to confirm the car was ready. Log book and MOT complete. Paid over the phone after more calls as issues with card machine. About 10 minutes later I received another call to advise that the MOT was not done and I would have to bring it in again! I had taken a days annual leave to sort the service and MOT and was not prepared to take another day. It was agreed that they would collect my car the next day from my place of work. I received a call in work the next day to say that they were outside ready to collect the car. Actually they were outside my home address. Work day disrupted. More inconvenience and stress. Another call when they eventually arrived at the correct address! The whole scenario was stressful and completely unacceptable from a reputable company. After-sales was even worse. “Customer satisfaction is incredibly important to us”. Maybe the Group Head of Aftersales (SM) needs to be made aware of this statement and abide by it. Numerous calls and emails that he did not even have the courtesy to respond to. Last email took over 2 weeks for an acknowledgment after more phone calls. Responses were condescending when received. Needless to say I would not recommend the service plan nor will I be returning after this runs out next year. I am astounded as to how the business remains operational with such low standards of customer care.
Latest update is again no response. I contacted Chapelhouse on Wednesday to discuss over the phone as suggested. It is now Saturday. Still awaiting a call back. I was offered a complimentary Air Conditioning service previously as way of compensation for a £600 service plan that has failed to deliver which I have obviously declined. Another failure in customer service.

We are genuinely very sorry to hear about the difficulties you experienced with the service and MOT at Chapelhouse MG Southport.

We take feedback like yours extremely seriously, particularly regarding the lack of timely and respectful communication from aftersales. This matter will be escalated to our Group Head of Aftersales to ensure your concerns are reviewed and addressed appropriately.
If you are willing, we would appreciate the opportunity to speak directly with you to fully understand the situation and explore any way to make this right. Please contact our Customer Experience Team at your earliest convenience so we can work on a resolution.
We are truly sorry for the stress and inconvenience caused and appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention.
A happy daughter
My 23 year old daughter wanted a Suzuki Swift and had seen a blue, ‘23 reg. low mileage example on the Chapelhouse website. Having been offered what amounted to a derisory ‘deal’ at the local Bolton showroom, we travelled 45 miles to cash purchase the car from Suzuki Southport, where it was actually based. Apart from having to ‘chase’ the salesman a couple of times - phone calls weren’t always returned - and the price was £100-£150 higher than l would have liked, but didn’t haggle as hard as l was minded to do as my daughter wanted the car (my fault therefore?), l was generally happy with the service l received.

We’re really pleased to hear that your daughter found the Suzuki Swift she wanted and that, overall, you were happy with the service at Chapelhouse MG Southport. It’s always a special moment helping someone purchase a car they’re excited about, and we’re glad we could be part of that.
That said, we’re sorry to hear that you had to chase for callbacks and that communication wasn’t as consistent as it should have been. We understand how important clear and timely contact is, especially when travelling a distance to complete a purchase. Your comments will be shared with the team to help us improve.
We hope your daughter is thoroughly enjoying her Swift, and we’d be delighted to welcome you both back in the future.

New Jaecoo 7 Chapelhouse
We bought our new Jaecoo 7 PHEV at Chapelhouse in Ainsdale. Initially Phil the manager looked after us and took us out for a test drive and then Dan took over. The whole process was very smooth with constant communication and updates from Dan. He was very helpful but not overbearing and supported us throughout the process and made us feel that nothing was a problem. Because of this my son is now very interested in buying a car through this dealership.
