Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 5,766 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Consumers frequently praise the helpful and knowledgeable staff who guide them patiently through the entire car-buying process without applying any unwanted sales pressure. Many buyers deeply appreciate the smooth test drives, thorough explanations of documents, and welcoming atmosphere provided throughout their showroom visits. However, some customers also noted long waiting times, disorganized service appointments, and poor communication regarding vehicle preparation. Others experienced deeply frustrating after-sales support when dealing with unexpected mechanical faults, unreturned phone calls, or missing essential items like spare keys. These individuals felt unsupported once the purchase was finalized, highlighting significant shortcomings in handling post-sale issues.

The service was okay overall

The service was okay overall, although the exchange process was quite long.

Miran was approachable, polite and very helpful throughout. Lucas, who handed the keys over to us at the end, was excellent. He also helped us with the insurance and taxing of the car, which made the final part of the process much easier.

I would recommend Big Motoring World, but I would definitely advise anyone considering buying from them to do their research online first and compare everything carefully before making a decision.

Having booked an appointment to look at a specific car, we ended up waiting in reception for about 20 minutes. Having examined the vehicle we expected a test drive only to be told we hadn’t booked one.
I do not understand how you think you can sell and drive away on the same visit if you cannot even provide a test drive after having booked a visit, and come with the appropriate documents. Seriously disappointing.

Hi Guy,

We’re sorry to hear about your disappointing experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

We understand your frustration at having booked an appointment to view a specific vehicle, only to wait around 20 minutes before being told that a test drive had not been arranged. We appreciate that this would have been particularly frustrating after you had brought the appropriate documents with you and were expecting to be able to proceed with a test drive.

We’re disappointed that we were unable to provide a smoother and more clearly communicated process during your visit. Your feedback regarding appointments and test drives will be shared with the relevant team.

We apologise for the inconvenience caused and for falling short of the experience you expected.

Very disappointing customer service and poor communication

I went to the dealership on Thursday to view a car and put down a £3,000 deposit for a car,I dealt with Kasim for the sale who was initially very pleasant. We arranged to collect the car on Friday, but during the visit we noticed that one of the tyres appeared to be very low on air. We raised this with the dealership and were assured that it would be sorted before collection.

As my insurance company is only open 9am–5pm, I had to change my insurance to the new car via live chat before 5pm in order to be able to collect it. When we arrived, however, the tyre was nearly completely flat.

Kasim told us that he had put air in the tyre at around 8pm the previous evening and that it was fine. He also claimed that he had driven the car for a few hours to make sure everything was okay, despite the dealership closing at 9pm. Pure lies

We were then told that they couldn’t fix the tyre because there was no technician available and they finished at 5 but other sales people said different times so unsure and that our decision to change the insurance was essentially our own problem. This was incredibly frustrating given that we had already paid a £3,000 deposit and had no realistic choice but to arrange the insurance in advance if we wanted to collect the car at any given date,

We asked to speak to the manager, who offered a £25 goodwill gesture and said there was only so much they could do. We were assured that the car would be made a priority first thing the following morning and that changing the tyre would take around 20 minutes.

The dealership opened at 8:30am, so we called at 10am for an update, but there was still no progress update. At around 11am we were told that the tyre was finally being changed. We arrived at 1pm and found that the car had been completed, but nobody had contacted us to let us know it was ready.

We then had to sit around for around an hour before anyone properly acknowledged us. Kasim walked past us and completely ignored us. When we approached him to ask what was happening, he said it was nothing to do with him and questioned why we had approached him, despite him being the salesman who had sold us the car.

Once the sale had gone through, his attitude completely changed. He was rude, dismissive and seemed to want nothing to do with the situation, despite us being left in a very stressful position because of an issue that should have been resolved before collection.

I do want to mention that the handover member of staff was lovely, apologetic and genuinely tried to make us feel at ease. He checked the car and was much more understanding of the situation, which we really appreciated.

Unfortunately, the overall customer service was extremely disappointing. The tyre issue should have been identified and resolved before we arrived to collect the car, and the communication throughout the process was poor. Being left waiting without updates and then being dismissed by the salesman made an already stressful situation much worse.

Based on this experience, I would not return to this dealership or recommend it to others. Buying a car should not involve having to chase the dealership for basic communication or feel as though you’re a nuisance once the sale has been completed.

I also do not appreciate your chatgpt responses working in customer service myself it is very easy to tell😂

Hi Abbey,

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We’re sorry that what should have been an exciting collection was made unnecessarily stressful by the tyre issue and the communication that followed.

We understand your frustration, particularly as you had raised the tyre concern before collection and made arrangements with your insurer based on the agreed collection date.

We’re also sorry that you were left waiting for updates, were not contacted when the vehicle was ready and felt dismissed when you approached the salesperson. That is not the level of customer service we expect from the team and this will be raised to Leeds Mnagement team for internal review.

We are, however, pleased to hear that the member of staff who handled your eventual handover was helpful and apologetic. We’ll make sure that positive feedback is recognised alongside the concerns you have raised.

We’re sorry that this experience has left you feeling unable to recommend the dealership, and we appreciate you bringing the issues to our attention.

Kindest Regards,
Big Motoring World

Dont even consider this company

Dont even consider this company, the salesman whom I believe was called Carl did his utmost to convince me to trade in my current car. I politely explained that is is a company car and for some explicable reason he still pursed with this in his desperation to make a deal.in spite of the inevitable high pressure over priced
add on sales which i politely declined, i went on to purchase a vehicle from them. This is where the fun begins! The car developed a serious banging noise from the front OS wheel within 2 Days, the response from this company is of course to refer you to the 3 month warranty that is provided with the car by a third party company called Assurant., i am now 2 weeks into a discussion with this company in order to at a minimum investigate the issue and no bookings have been made by them to date. My recommendation to big motoring world is to improve the training of the sales staff as clearly selling your company car as a trade in vehicle could be career limiting! Good luck to you if you engage with this company!

UPDATE after the response from BIG MOTORING WORLD.May i ask what you plan to do about it besides sending and a bluntly pointless response, I am sure the readers and listeners will look forward to the next dismissive response, DATED 24 August 2026.

Hi Chris,

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear that you were unhappy with both the sales process and the issues you encountered shortly after purchasing your vehicle.

We appreciate your frustration regarding the repeated discussions about your company car, particularly after you had explained that it was not yours to trade in. We also understand your concerns about the additional products offered during the sales process and the pressure you felt to purchase them.

More importantly, we’re sorry to hear that the vehicle developed a significant noise from the front wheel within just two days of purchase and that you have subsequently experienced delays while trying to arrange an inspection and establish the cause of the issue.

We understand how frustrating it must be to have spent two weeks trying to get the matter progressed without a booking being made. While third-party warranty arrangements can involve specific processes, we recognise that customers still expect clear communication and appropriate support when a problem arises so soon after purchase.

We’ll share your feedback regarding the sales approach, vehicle preparation and aftersales experience with the relevant management teams. We’re sorry that your experience has fallen short of what you expected and appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention.

Kindest Regards,
Big Motoring World

Incompetent Customer Service

I bought a Ford Puma at the end of May 2026 from the Leeds branch, as a cash buyer. All seemed okay until it was in the garage 8 days later due to the hybrid functions not working. Warranty wouldn’t cover it so after 3 days of constant phone calls and being without a car, Big Motoring World agreed they would pick up the repair cost to replace the 12v battery - this is after they asked me for a photo of the air con not working…

Fast forward to the start of July and the car won’t start. I then get it back in the garage, at Big Motoring Worlds request, and I requested to return the vehicle. I spent a further 3 weeks making multiple phone calls a day until Big Motoring World agreed to accept the vehicle back. I was told that I could take it back to the Sheffield branch - 2 more phone calls later and I was told that they would allow me to return it as a “one off” but they would be taking deductions - after 3 weeks, this was the first time hearing about any such mileage deductions. I returned the vehicle on Saturday 25th July. On the Monday, Verity from Big Motoring World contacted me to say she would be taking 45p a mile deduction from my purchase price for the 2000+ miles I drove - all with the car being faulty. For the next week, Verity actively avoided my 3 phone calls per day and took over 24 hours each time to reply to my emails. She was unable to explain or justify the mileage deductions and avoided answering any of my questions. Verity was completely incompetent in her role and used bullying tactics to force me to agree to a completely unjustifiable mileage deduction, knowing full well they had my cash therefore I could not purchase another vehicle.

I have an ongoing case with the Motoring Ombudsman regarding the disgusting service this company provided, and the lack of explanation for the 45p per mile deductions.

I truly would recommend to avoid purchasing a vehicle from Big Motoring World at all costs.

Hi Emma,

Thank you for taking the time to provide such a detailed account of your experience. We’re very sorry to hear how frustrating this situation has been, particularly given the repeated issues you experienced with the Ford Puma and the amount of time you spent trying to get the matter resolved.

We appreciate how disruptive it must have been to be without your vehicle shortly after purchase, and we’re sorry that you had to make repeated calls and follow up numerous times before a resolution was reached.

We also understand your concerns regarding the mileage deduction and the communication you received after returning the vehicle. We appreciate that you wanted a clear explanation of how this figure had been reached and why it applied, and we’re sorry that you feel your questions were not adequately answered.

As you have confirmed that the matter is now being considered by the Motor Ombudsman, we would not want to comment publicly on the specifics of the dispute or the financial arrangements while the case is ongoing. We will, of course, engage with the appropriate formal process and provide any information required.

We’re sorry that your experience with the Leeds branch and our aftersales team has left you feeling so dissatisfied. Your feedback regarding communication, the handling of the vehicle return and the customer experience has been noted and will be shared with the relevant management team.

Kindest Regards,
Big Motoring World

Purchased an EV car from Big motoring…

Purchased an EV car from Big motoring world with 3 months warranty. The warranty is worthless as none of the approved repairers work on EV vehicles . For the last month Big motoring world and the warranty company keep passing us between the both of them with no one accepting ownership of the issue . Dragging the issue out until the 3 months expires. Big motoring world staff Lucy will not pass us on to any manager who can help because they are all having a nice weekend although there customers are left with faulty vehicles . Not the place to buy a reliable car from and expect support if there is a problem.

Hi Mr Cussens,

We’re sorry to hear about the difficulties you’ve experienced with your EV and the frustration caused while trying to arrange a repair.

We’re particularly concerned to hear that you have been passed between Big Motoring World and the warranty provider for an extended period without a clear resolution. We understand how stressful this must be when you are left with a faulty vehicle and are unsure who is responsible for arranging the necessary assistance.

We’re also sorry to hear about your experience when trying to escalate the matter and that you felt unable to speak with a manager. We appreciate how disappointing this would have been, particularly given the length of time you had already been waiting for support.

We would like the opportunity to review what has happened, including the suitability of the approved repairers for your EV and the communication you have received. Please contact our Customer Care team with your vehicle registration and details of the issue so that we can investigate this further.

We apologise for the inconvenience and frustration caused and hope we can have the opportunity to address your concerns.

Kindest Regards,
Big Motoring World

Absolute disgrace of a motor sales showroom. They wanted name. Email address and phone number before you could even go to look at the cars. There was no way I was going to do that and get phone calls after I had been there, so we were refused entry. Receptionist was rude. I have bought cars from Mercedes and Land Rover and have never had to do this.
