Cons:

Purchasing Experience

Pros:

  • "Our first visit to this site was a very good experience."
  • "We were both very impressed with the organisation and the pleasant way that the whole process was conducted."
  • "Handover was smooth and a great experience."
  • "A very slick operation, not under any pressure, straight talking and good products."
  • "Would recommend Motorpoint Car Arena for great service."
  • "Really impressed by quality of stock and the overall buying experience, from initial greeting on arrival to handover of new car."
  • "This has to be the best experience I have ever had buying a car, used or new."

Cons:

  • "The only downside was the paperwork and processing at the end took ages."
  • "I went to buy a vw caravelle for £38k, on initial viewing I was told it had at least 2 keys and the sat nav disc, great, a week later I go to pick the van up and I end up being told by Matthew the sales manager that they didn’t advertise the van with sat nav."
  • "Having been built up to drive away today, I am bitterly disappointed."
  • "Basically sold a car with a manufacturer warranty that I can't claim on."
  • "It took over 6 hours to complete all the paperwork, despite being told over the phone the previous day that it should take no more than an hour... very poor service."
  • "Absolutely shocking service from Motorpoint Newport!!! They sold me a CRASH DAMAGED VEHICLE and when I contacted them to report the problem, I was met with a wall of silence."
  • "In summary, I will never buy from Motorpoint again, the customer experience was a complete shambles."

Value and Quality

Pros:

  • "We searched all of Autotrader and their cars were the best value for our money."
  • "Cars are well priced vs market, but this reflects the quality of car you’re buying."
  • "The price of the car was very fair and in showroom condition."
  • "I bought a 2022 Renault zoe with 3000 miles for a bargain price compared to my local dealer."
  • "Wide selection of low mileage cars."
  • "Their cars are competitively priced and my experience demonstrated that the customer service was equal to if not better than the prestige dealerships."
  • "I have a car that is six months younger and £1200 cheaper that was on offer from my local BMW dealer."

Cons:

  • "Serviced by motorpoint mean that the car is never serviced & there will be original parts regardless how many stamps in the book."
  • "The cars interior and exterior were not cleaned at all."
  • "I've bought a few cars from motorpoint due to price what let's them down is they pay people to wash all cars with sand paper every car on sale is in a very poor state."
  • "Car supplied with very dangerous tyre Which had been dangerously repaired very close to the wall of the tyre."
  • "Within 10 days of purchasing the car I had to replace all 4 tyres due to severe cracks... I had to fork out an extra £660 for something motorpoint should have picked up in the full service they carried out the day before."
  • "This will be the last car we buy from Motorpoint. Make sure when you buy your car you check the bodywork thoroughly."
  • "The car was everything I wanted but had an issue that has left a slightly bitter taste."

Aftercare and Warranty

Pros:

  • "After sales are superb."
  • "Amazing service before during and after care."
  • "Excellent customer service throughout the whole purchase, couldn’t do enough to make sure the whole process was stress free."
  • "Received excellent service from all the staff at Motor point with no pressure from anyone at any point."
  • "Excellent customer service by Sam today sorting out a new car for my partner."
  • "All staff very friendly. Good knowledge and advice but not pushy."
  • "Excellent service provided by Susan, made the whole process of buying car which can be stressful, really straightforward."

Cons:

  • "I purchased a motorpoint warranty, which of course won't pay out. The warranty is provided by Defend Insurance Group based in Prague, who it appears have plenty of fake 5 star reviews if you read them."
  • "Do not buy a car from this place all you get is a car bought at an auction and then sold on to you at a profit which may or may not have the remainder of the manufacturer warranty voided."
  • "Lesson learnt, don't purchase from car supermarkets who will be quick enough to take your money but no aftercare."
  • "Aftercare is poor and when something goes wrong your on your own."
  • "Not very happy with the after sales service that’s provided."
  • "The car I bought, was sold to me with a full service history. However MotorPoint didn’t have the paperwork on hand to prove this, 4 months later I have only just been sent the service history, after chasing them a few times."
  • "Overall the vehicle is great, but we were let down on the delivery of our secondhand vehicle."
