Very disappointed from a loyal customer

I booked my car in for a 2nd year service. The price was £385! They said it was a major service. Change of oil and a couple of filters! On the bill it included labour at £180! The car was only in an hour and a half! While I was there they said they they had some amazing new deals. We decided to have a test drive in an mg3 trophy hybrid which we were quite impressed with. I told the young salesman that I qualified for the mg affinity deals which I had got on my last two mgs. He showed me the deals which were discussable, but when I looked at home later they were the same details on their website that were open to all customers? Do they not participate in the scheme? Did the salesman not know this?. However when they valued my car (mgzs1.0ltr) at £11600 I was shocked. When I questioned why that was a nearly 50% depreciation in two years was told they would have to service the car which had just been done that day! They then said because of this they would offer as a good will gesture £12000. I said that was not quite enough and left it at that. I later got a phone call from the salesman saying that if they offered £12500 would Ibe interested, Itold him maybe and he said he would ring me back. No phone call no nothing ! In the past Ihave used this company buying4 Nissan cars and 2 mg cars. Never again! I will use another dealer in the future

Dear John,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and I’m really sorry to hear about your recent experience.

I’d like to reassure you that we have fully reviewed this internally with the management team. The process on the day was followed correctly, and your vehicle was re-evaluated to try and strengthen the offer as much as possible. Following your visit, a further attempt was made to improve the part exchange value, however unfortunately we were unable to make the figures work beyond what had already been discussed.

That said, we completely acknowledge that you should have received a follow-up call to confirm this, and I’m very sorry that this didn’t happen. This has been addressed directly with the team to ensure clearer communication moving forward.

With regards to your other comments, we understand how important transparency is when it comes to pricing, offers, and valuations, and we will take your feedback on board as part of our ongoing improvements.

We genuinely value your previous loyalty to us, and I’m sorry this experience has left you feeling this way.

Kind Regards,

Please do not use Vauxhall Ormskirk

Please do not use Vauxhall Ormskirk. The dealer ordered the wrong colour specification, admitted the error, and is dispondent, processed an incorrect application and wont even give a final letter for ombudsman on headed paper so I have registered it and detailed all the evidence - Investigation is now in the process. Go elsewhere this branch only wants a sale.

Very positive experience

Very positive experience for my third used car purchase from Chorley Group. Lewis at the Preston branch looked after me, explained the process well and took my vehicle in part-ex. I felt at ease, and was made to feel comfortable at the showroom. Nice clean toilets too.
A pleasant change from other experiences at rival companies 😀

Fantastic experience

Gareth was a great help from start to finish. This was my first purchase of a car via a dealership and he made it so easy and stress free.
He went through all the paperwork with me and made sure I understood everything I was signing.
I would definitely use Nissan Burnley, Chorley Group again!

Has to be the worst dealership

Has to be the worst dealership on the UK especially Nissan Blackpool.
This is the second time I’ve ordered a new car from them and again they’ve pissed me about.
Last time 6 years ago I was forced to travel to Derby from Blackpool to collect the car from a different dealer I’d had on order with Chorley Nissan for months.
I can’t believe they’ve done exactly the same dirty trick again.
I ordered and paid a sizeable deposit on a new Nissan with a delivery date of early March 2026, then it was late March, then April now it’s late May.
They have no mechanism to keep me informed but make me go out of my way to keep visiting their showroom.
Nobody should trust these clowns.

Dear Ian,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m really sorry to hear how frustrating this experience has been for you, and I completely understand your concerns regarding the delays.

I can assure you that Brodie has been keeping you updated throughout, and we do appreciate how disappointing it is when delivery dates continue to move. Unfortunately, these delays are due to manufacturer-related issues with the new model and are outside of our control, but that doesn’t make the situation any less frustrating for you.

I understand your concerns regarding availability elsewhere, however allocation and delivery timings can vary between markets and dealerships, which can sometimes lead to differences in when vehicles arrive.

Please be assured that we are not withholding any information, and the team will continue to keep you updated as soon as we receive any confirmed updates from the manufacturer.

5 star treatment at Bolton

Dawid at Chorley Group in Bolton has always made my car purchases stress free and my latest purchase was no exception. Dawid discussed all finance options available without any sales push. Upon car collection, he helped me sync my phone and went through all in-car features before I set off. Thank you Dawid.

David Gore was exceptional. Very knowledgeable, helpful and empathetic to our stressful situation and went out of his way to fit in with our short time frame. He was also very kind and patient and really helped us focus our decision making. Picked the car up last night and just enjoying it now.

Really good experience

Having not previously purchased a vehicle from a dealer out of the area I was a little nervous, but dealing with Megan at Chorley MG was brilliant. No pressure, friendly, and stuck to my budget. She sent all the documents over quickly and checked I had received everything. She was also quick to respond to any queries, and everyone I spoke to from the dealership was really friendly. I would definitely recommend them based on my experience.

Your recommendation means a great deal to us, and I’ll be sure to pass your kind feedback on to Megan and the team at Chorley MG.

Super service from Chorley Nissan, Strand Road, Preston

We have once again just upgraded our Nissan Juke at the Dealership on Strand Road Preston.
We were made aware that the time had come to potentially make the change, and were informed of possible cars available.
During this time there was no pressure put on us to make a decision, and we were given breathing space to weigh up what was on offer.
A number of phone calls were then received from Lewis, again, with no pressure, but we finally decided on the car. Lewis kept us updated with e mails and videos with regards to the car, and finally invited us down when the car was ready for pick up.
There were a few minor issues that needed resolving, but Lewis addressed these.
Overall we received excellent service, as ever, and could not fault how we were looked after.
Chorley Group treat you with respect, and value your custom, and I would recommend them to anyone thinking of looking for another car.

Quality service from a very pleasant gent called Gareth.

May I just say from the minute I walked into the showroom I was greeted by Gareth who was busy with a customer but still found time to answer the questions I had. Then from there going forward 2 more visits and a car purchased. Nothing was a problem. Would recommend Gareth as a top guy and a pleasure to do business with. Thank you very much for making everything so easy and straightforward with our purchase for a new car.
