  • "On picking up my mini I was made aware that a stone had chipped the windscreen. Instead of phoning me to tell me this they waited till I drove 30 mile to collect the car so had no choice really to drive away with it."

Product Satisfaction

Pros:

  • "Purchased my Mini GT from them. Delay in the gold stripes being fitted, worth the wait though."
  • "I drove away in the perfect mini today, and couldn’t be happier!!"
  • "I picked up my Racing Green Mini last week and I am thrilled with it, it looks great and makes driving such fun."
  • "MINI is such a reliable car compared to other cars I've had, the colourful interior lights give it a fun feeling but alongside, it is comfortable and has all the new technology you need."
  • "It's a beautiful car to drive and I am incredibly happy with it."
  • "Love my car and also the smooth process of buying it."
  • "The car is great and came cleaned and ready to go."

Cons:

  • "I had my mini in for repairs under warranty, everything to do with the repairs were fine, not great, just fine, but my car was covered in water marks and some sort of grease on the plastic wheel trim."
  • "I purchased a mini Challenge 210 from Wollaston mini on 16/04/2019 upon receipt I saw that the bonnet had a dent from where it had been closed due to the two stage opening operation."
  • "I also saw the front grille not the piano black that it should be."
  • "All in all can't complain about the car itself however poor from a customer service point of view. Purchased from a main dealer in the hope of better aftercare but this has simply not been the case."
  • "I wonder whether buying another would be a bad mistake."
  • "Not a great experience, was quoted 5k to fix my mini and then more money."
  • "I still have 1 service plan left on car however because I knocked my oil service light off myself they will now not service the car, claiming I could have taken it to another garage."

Cons:

  • "The only little down side to the dealership was that I haggled and Lawrence couldn't give any discounts and had to stick to the price advertised."
  • "Change of circumstance has meant that I cannot continue with my order which was never my intention having my deposit being held to ransom till they sell the car was not what I expected from a garage like this very disappointed."
  • "Gone to another garage that not only fixed the issue for under 2k, but also found the actual issue that mini hadn't even picked up on."
