I was happy with the service provided by the staff especially Ian as he was very helpful when purchasing my Volvo. The process was smooth and the customer service was very efficient.

Honest and helpful garage. Easy to do business with. Steve the salesman was very approachable. I bought a hybrid car from them, after purchasing the car I had one or two technical queries . Steve was quick and helpful with his response.

I bought a VW Passat with the help from Dean one of the sales team,he was very helpful and down to earth.I had bad luck the water pump failed the second day i owned the car! I spoke to Richard at First4car and he supplied me with a courtesy car and recovered the passat for repair.This was a Saturday,but i needed the car repaired for Monday late afternoon as i had to be in Portsmouth for 9pm! These guys pulled all the stops out and changed the water pump and cam belt for me under warranty and sent me on my way mid afternoon.I got to Portsmouth on time to catch my ferry.There mechanic started work on my car at 8am to ensure the job was done in time.Top class professionals.

Thank you for your understanding and we wish you all the best. We look forward to seeing you again in the future when it’s time for an update.

I bought a hybrid Mitsubishi Outlander in February this year, and so far it has proved to an excellent purchase. It wasn't a cheap car, and I felt confident that First4car was a good firm. There was no hard sell. I took the car out for a test drive alone and it was all very relaxed. I've done just under 20k miles without any problem, including a road trip to Poland and back. The car came with a new MoT and I had it serviced after I'd done 10k, without any problem. It was an entirely positive experience all round.

Lovely to hear from you George. We're so pleased you are happy and enjoying your Outlander. It's important to us as a company that our customers find the car that is right for them. It's great to hear you are happy with the customer service you received at First4car. You know where to come when it's time for an update!

Without a doubt the best customer service I've had from a car dealer. When first walking on the forecourt I expected to be bombarded by staff trying to sell me a car but I wasn't. I was greeted with a friendly hello and left to browse the forecourt without feeling like I've got eyes in the back of my head. I went back a week later to test drive a car and was given the keys and was allowed to take the car out with my friend for an hour so I could enjoy the car at my own peril. I had a couple of concerns with the car which was a blue Corsa vxr (couple of scratches here and there and door wouldn't open all the time) but when I raised this with Mark, he promised to sort these out before purchase and be delivered. Can't thank first 4cars and Mark for an incredible purchasing experience and will definitely be back when I'm due a new car. Thanks

When I initially got the car I was happy, good price, had a good experience. However, the aftercare has been aweful. After a couple of weeks the low tyre pressure sensor started going off. I'd already taken it to another garage to have a look at the problem who said all four tyres valves were leaking. So called up Dealership to take a look at it, they told me it was just the front two tyres and replaced the valves ,which I had to pay for. Was not impressed I had to pay, but thought the issue would be solved. Two weeks later the tyre sensor went off again. This time back two had gone down, so took it back again and they changed the back two valves. This time I refused to pay as I'd already mentioned I'd been told it was all four that were an issue. After that I thought it would be all sorted. However yesterday, low tyre pressure sensor went off again. Front two have gone down, again. I would no longer recommend them, it has been such a hassle.

Ben we are really sorry to hear the problem with the tyre pressure sensor has returned. Unfortunately from time to time issues occur with any vehicle as I know you understand. The sensors are of course under manufacturers warranty, so as we reassured you on the telephone today we will replace them free of charge. We do not like to hear of any our customers having a problem with their car. Therefore despite you being out of warranty we fitted the pressure sensors charging you for the parts at cost only, and we stood the labour cost. Our mechanics believed it was only 2 of the sensors that needed replacing therefore did not want to carry out work that was unnecessary. We apologise that it turned out that all 4 sensors were at fault and for this reason we did not charge you for the remaining 2 sensors that were replaced. We appreciate that even though you live near to the dealership this has caused you an inconvenience and for this we apologise.

Very disappointing customer service. I phoned in the morning and arranged a test drive of a vehicle in the afternoon, as the salesman confirmed the car was still for sale. However, while on the way to Firs4Car I found myself stuck in busy traffic and realised I was going to be late for the scheduled test drive. Out of courtesy I rang the salesman at First4Car to say I was stuck in traffic and would be slightly late, only to be told by the salesman the car had been sold that afternoon. The salesman stated First4Car allegedly had tried to contact me, but there is no record of this on my mobile phone. Both my wife and I had taken time out of our busy jobs to view the vehicle which has only added to the frustration of our experience of First4Car and ended up being a complete waste of our time . First4Car apparently pride themselves on customer service, but my customer experience falls far short of what I would expect based on it's marketing.

Graham we are really sorry that you missed out on one of the VW Golfs that you were looking at. We most certainly do pride ourselves on our customer service and this time we did fall short of our high standards. We're glad to hear that you are giving us the opportunity to source you another great Golf. We have also reviewed our procedures to ensure that we do not let any of our customers down again in the future. We appreciate everyone has busy lives and although you are local to us Graham we caused you an inconvenience and for this we apologise.
