I have brought and approved used 3 series which has been delivered with a faulty TMPS valve so could not use the car for 5 days until I took it to a bmw service for repair. Then after driving the car for few days i notice that there is and issue with the steering so I book it for repairs under the warranty, but that service could not provide a courtesy car and they said to speak to Vertu,which i did and they did not want to help with and still doesn't want to.As the 1st stage of the repair did not fix the issue and the bmw service i use they only have courtesy car in 3 weeks.Now I will have to drive an unsafe car until then.
For a vehicle sold as “BMW Approved”, with a supposed 120-point inspection, I expected a far higher standard of care and after-sales support.

I trusted Vertu to sell me a car that was fully checked and safe, but instead I am left with a defective vehicle, no assistance, and no urgency to put things right. Very disappointing experience and not what I expect from a BMW dealership.

Dear Mr Puicar,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I understand how frustrating this must be and I will reach out to BMW UK in attempt to speed up the loan car availability. Geographically this is a challenge relying on other BMW outlets and their loan car availability to fix an issue that is covered under warranty. If you were local to us I'm sure we could address this issue in a more timely manner. Thank you for your patience and I will update you accordingly. Assuring you of our best intentions, Owen Brown, Head of Business

Great service

An excellent experience from start to finish. I was able to reserve a car easily and arranged a test drive. Then it was no problem to test out another car. Once decided to buy everything was seamless and easy. Able to drive the car away the same day after a valet and some flowers 🌹 . I would use and recommend again.

Impressive customer service.

The customer service was impressive.
I had visited just to view a Honda at my daughters suggestion.I had partially decided on another car .
However the Sales Rep highlighted all the benefits of the Honda and patiently accompanied us on the test drive identifying all the features and assets of the car.
Her relaxed manner and enthusiasm contributed to me changing my mind.
Natalie was extremely helpful throughout the whole sale ,explained in detail the various add on options and definitely was instrumental in my purchase.
I would recommend anyone thinking of purchasing a Honda to visit this branch.

Couldn’t of asked for a better service

Couldn’t of asked for a better service! Gary made the whole process seem less from start to finish, I was a little indecisive as to what I wanted when I first came into the garage, but he has the patience of a saint and everything was so streamlined! Thank you once again to the Vertu Durham team but in particular Gary, I LOVE my new car!!!

Poor customer service and bad communication regarding refund

Ordered a motor part that was not delivered as communication from Vertu and their courier was very poor. Therefore the part returned to Vertu Motor and a refund requested.
Several weeks later I am still waiting for my money back. This part that has remained with Vertu Motors and their courier the entire time but apparently has not reached Vertu Motors store for a refund to be processed.
My next step is to contact Trading Standards as Vertu Motors issue is with their courier not me and I should be refunded with immediate effect.

Amazing service!

Amazing service, thoroughly professional, and really helpful. I was assisted by Victoria who was excellent - Victoria helped me pick the right car, she talked me through all the relevant information and the finance options. Victoria was really friendly, never pushed me to make a deal but guided me through my options instead. Victoria made the process of buying a new car easy for me- the service was perfect. I would definitely recommend Vertu Motors to other drivers.
