10 out of 10 experience!

I had such a fantastic experience with Marshall BYD St Neots. As a motability customer, I couldn’t have asked for anything more. Kerrie was amazing from our first visit, to keeping in touch - all the way to car collection. Thank you so much for a fantastic experience 😊

Marshall Audi Maidstone

Marshall Audi Maidstone . Very professional experience with Reni the customer advisor who was very knowledgeable about the matters identified by their inspection which was carried out free while recall parts were fitted . Great when a service advisor can answer technical questions without having to run back and forth to the workshop for answers . Very positive 2nd experience with this dealership. A flexible booking approach enabling me to wait for the car in a comfortable area and they didn't take Very long to do the work either .

Car sold with faulty transmission

I bought a used 2022 Audi A3 from Marshall in September 2025 for around £21,000. Within three weeks an independent garage found multiple fault codes, including one for lost communication with the transmission control module. I was told these were likely minor, so I carried on using the car — only for the same faults to resurface and the car to break down completely with a transmission/mechatronics failure less than a year after purchase.
Marshall confirmed the transmission fault and quoted me around £5,000 to replace the mechatronics unit. When I raised a formal complaint asking Marshall to cover the repair under the consumer rights act, they refused to accept responsibility, arguing the fault was my problem and I should have spotted it earlier.
I've now been left without a usable car — with a young family relying on it — while paying finance on a vehicle that developed a serious transmission fault far sooner than anyone should expect from a car of this age and price. Very disappointed in how this has been handled and will not be dealing with Marshall after my dispute has been resolved .

Bad experience

I had an incredibly disappointing and stressful experience with this BYD store.
At the beginning of June, I placed an order for a white BYD Dolphin (Comfort trim). I was explicitly promised a delivery timeframe of 3 to 4 weeks, or by the end of June at the very latest. Trusting this timeline, I went ahead and invested in installing an EV home charger and switched my home energy tariff to prepare for the car's arrival.
During the entire 4-week waiting period, the store provided zero updates. When I reached out to them, I was brushed off with "nothing yet."
After the 4 weeks passed, I went into the store in person to get answers. A manager informed me that if I wanted the white car, I would have to wait another 4 to 6 weeks, with no guarantees. However, they offered an alternative: they had a grey model available immediately and stated they would honor our original approved quote for it.
Because this car was for my wife, I told them I would return with her the following day to finalize it. Yet, when we arrived the next day, they went back on their word, claiming they could no longer offer the grey car at the quoted price.
After 4 to 5 weeks of anticipation, tension, and terrible customer service, I finally decided to cancel my quote entirely.
My advice to anyone visiting this store: Do not trust their verbal promises. If they give you a delivery timeline or a price match offer, demand a written copy or a confirmation email on the spot. Very pathetic and unprofessional experience.

Excellent level of service

Shout out to Callum Gibbs, Marshall Škoda Canterbury. Thank you for your assistance with the purchase of my Škoda. I was extremely impressed by your speed and efficiency throughout the process. You kept me fully informed at every stage without me ever having to chase for updates, making the whole experience straightforward and stress-free.

You were pleasant, helpful, and diligent throughout, and you put together an excellent package with all the information I needed to make decisions with confidence. Your professionalism and attention to detail were greatly appreciated.

I would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone looking to purchase a new or used Škoda in the Canterbury area or beyond. Thank you again for such an excellent level of service.

DO NOT BUY FROM MARSHALLS

DO NOT BUY FROM MARSHALLS
Plenty of other places to buy a car from – Don’t risk having the same experience as me.
3 weeks ago I left a bad (but truthful) review of Marshalls of Worcester. Their customer service is so bad it is beyond words. Well, to be honest, it’s only bad when they bother to reply, which is very rare. Terrible service. I assumed that this terrible service was just at the Worcester branch.
After I left my review someone called Anna, from Marshall Motor Group, added a comment asking me to contact her so that they could look into my complaint. Now, 3 weeks later and despite chasing it up I have not heard a single thing from Anna or Marshalls. Just like their Worcester branch they completely ignore you and any problems.
I believe Marshalls only asked (publically) for me to contact them so it would down play my review. That is typical of my experience of Marshalls. I do not believe it’s a coincidence that complaints are ignored. It seems to me to be company policy.
If you buy a car from them and its fine then all good. But if it has even a slight problem you’ll be on your own trying to sort it. They don’t care once they have your money. Learn from my experience, buy your car from anywhere other than Marshalls.

Marshall’s of Taunton are a company that I will never do business with again. Bought my wife a VW T-Roc which was a good car but after sales service was non existent with, for example, being told that a short battery life on an ignition key could invoke a £90 diagnostic charge. When I complained I was completely ignored. Sold the car now as do not want to deal with this company as the only local VW dealership in the area. Going next for a company that cares.

I made an enquiry through auto trader for a car for sale. I was contacted swiftly by Joseph Harper Sales Executive who was professional helpful and listened to my requirements. I was really impressed by his knowledge empathy but mostly his transparency. There was no hidden agenda just a desire to make a mutually beneficial deal which Joe achieved. His personable nature and communication skills coupled with his product knowledge were second to none. He is an asset to your company. Thank you

Utterly useless (Marshall Nottingham)

My Polestar 2 broke down in the middle of February and got towed to Marshall Volvo Nottingham the next day. I received a call the next day saying it might take a week or 2 as it was likely they'd need to order parts from Sweden. Since that time Marshall have not contacted me once other than to respond to my enquiries, of which there have been many! I was first told the parts had arrived at the end of March and it would probably be ready 'next week'. Since then I have been told parts have just arrived or have been ordered again multiple times. But every time I get in touch (which is difficult as they rarely answer the phone), I get fobbed off with another story...'the technician is on holiday', 'the technician is off sick', 'there are other cars on the ramp' etc etc. But they always insist it should be done 'next week'. And then every time I hear nothing. Now here we are almost 5 months later and still no sign of my car and they're now not only ignoring my calls but also my pleas on their live chat service. Utterly disgraceful service and I will be raising grievances in as many places as I can to try and get them to finally get their arses into gear and fix my car!!!

Unresponsive service @grantham

My Nissan Ariya was left completely undriveable for around 30 minutes and was recovered to Marshall Nissan Grantham for diagnosis. Whilst the dealership provided a DTC fault code report, I have now sent three polite emails over several weeks asking for the technician’s conclusions following the investigation. Unfortunately, I have received no response. I simply wanted to understand what was found and whether there is any ongoing concern regarding the vehicle’s reliability. Disappointing communication and aftercare.

Awful, just awful

Awful. Just awful. Still waiting for a call from the garage and they’ve had the car for 4 weeks. Awful. Avoid at all costs.

All the reviews have this message from Marshalls saying that they want one to contact them. I’ve done so and yet again, no response !!! It’s unbelievable - they don’t contact you when you’re car is with them (4 weeks and counting without contact from them (I’ve tried countless times)), and pretend that they’re concerned about negative feedback but in reality couldn’t care less. I won’t do business with this company again. I strongly suggest that you don’t either !
