Bought my Troc from Geoff Cox car sales

Bought my Troc from Geoff Cox car sales and had a great experience with all staff I came into contact with. This is the second car I've purchased and wouldn't go anywhere else now! The service team have also always conducted my service and mots and can't be faulted with how thorough they always are.

AVOID AVOID AVOID COW BOYS!!!!

!!!!! AVOID AVOID AVOID !!!!!

Avoid Geoff Cox Car Sales – Absolute Joke.

I bought a BMW iX in July 2025. Within days, it flagged a big warning saying “DO NOT DRIVE” and their own diagnostics logged over 80 fault codes, including permanent drivetrain faults.

Instead of fixing it, they cleared the codes and told me, “No faults, come and collect your car.” They even wiped the fault memory again before sending it to BMW Derby, which meant BMW couldn’t properly investigate.

While the car was with them, the mileage went up from daily personal use by staff. They also left their own internal job cards and diagnostic reports in my car, which showed exactly what they were trying to hide. When I found them, they chased BMW for CCTV of me retrieving paperwork from my own car.

They even tried to claim they had an “independent engineer’s report” when in reality it was an internal Geoff Cox document. When I exercised my legal right to reject within 30 days, they flatly refused and even threatened to sue me.

My finance company and broker now both support my rejection, which says it all.

This is the worst dealer I’ve EVER dealt with.

Faults hidden, car misused, threats made, rights ignored!!

DO NOT BUY A CAR WITH THESE COW BOYS!!!!

My Reply:

Thank you for responding, but I need to set the record straight on several key points:

1. “Fault-free at point of sale”
– Your own Autel diagnostic on 18 August (less than a month after purchase) logged over 80 fault codes, including permanent drivetrain errors. These reports were left in the vehicle by mistake and directly contradict your claim.

2. “BMW confirmed no active faults”
– That’s because you cleared the codes immediately before sending the car to BMW Derby. BMW themselves confirmed they were able to see historic faults due to this. A car showing “no active faults” after its memory has been wiped is not the same as a car being fault-free.

3. “Extended road test mileage”
– The mileage increase was not from a single extended test. The vehicle was used daily while in your custody, consistent with personal use by staff. My tracker data confirms this.

4. “Independent inspection”
– You told me there was an “independent engineer’s report.” This turned out to be an internal Geoff Cox document, which is misleading. I note no response to this.

5. Consumer Rights
– I exercised my short-term right to reject within 30 days under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. This does not require me to prove the car was fault-free at delivery — only that a fault occurred within 30 days, which your own scans confirm. Both the finance company and the broker have since agreed my rejection is valid.

6. Reputation
– While your Google reviews may look positive, this is largely because much of your trade is Motability (new cars), where there are fewer/no issues to resolve. Within the industry, your reputation is not nearly as strong — and this experience demonstrates why. It’s easy to look good when nothing goes wrong, but how a dealer behaves when there is a problem tells the real story.

7. Trustpilot record
– Your Trustpilot rating is just 3.4/5, with nearly 40% of reviewers giving you one star. Many raise the same concerns I have: poor after-sales, code-clearing, and refusal to resolve problems once the sale is complete. This shows my experience is not an isolated case but part of a pattern.

I stand by my review. Customers deserve the full picture, not half-truths.

COW BOYS DO NOT BUY A CAR FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!

Reply from Geoff Cox

Mr Bishop, thank you for your review. We appreciate the opportunity to clarify the facts for anyone reading.

The BMW iX you purchased was supplied in July 2025 following both a BCA Assured inspection and our own workshop checks, confirming it was fault-free at the point of sale. When you raised concerns on 17 August, the vehicle was inspected within 24 hours, tested extensively, and no drivetrain faults were found. To provide further reassurance, we also covered the cost of an independent BMW inspection, which again confirmed no active faults.

It is also relevant that during the short period you have owned the car, you added over 1,700 miles, which is not consistent with a vehicle suffering from a serious or unsafe defect.

While we could not accept a formal rejection without evidence of a significant fault, we did offer several fair alternatives — including a buyback under our cancellation policy, a favourable part-exchange, or a contribution towards an extended BMW warranty for added peace of mind.

Geoff Cox Car Sales has been established for over 50 years, and we remain committed to acting fairly, professionally, and transparently with all our customers.

Geoff Cox Leisure, Motorhome

Bought a Motorhome from Geoff Cox Leisure two months ago and everything was ok until 2 weeks ago. when a component failed, not a problem it’s under warranty. They have now had my vehicle for almost two weeks and comms have been really poor/non existent. I actually went to the site yesterday and was promised a call back by 5pm with definitive information, it didn’t happen. I have rang this morning to voice my concern and not take no/don’t know/don’t care for an answer. When the person on the other end of the line got frustrated at my insistence on information, i was accused of shouting. it raises the question is the only thing above average at Geoff cox the price? I’m hoping not but from a customer point of view it doesn’t seem to bode well for the future.

Hi Andy, thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry that your experience has not met expectations and that communication hasn’t been at the level it should be. We can understand the frustration this must cause. Your motorhome is with us under warranty for a component failure, and we do rely on parts and approvals from the manufacturer, which can sometimes cause delays outside of our control. That said, our updates to you should have been clearer and more consistent. We do apologise for the inconvenience this has caused and should you have any further concerns please contact us on sales@geoffcox.co.uk and address your message to Aidan for us to investigate this further.

Thanks,
The Geoff Cox Team

basically the company does up cars, that will last the warranty then fail. The only way to deal with people like this is in a language they understand.

Hi Mr Perkins,

Thank you for your feedback, I am sorry you felt the need to leave a second negative review.

We take great pride and time in the preparation of all of the vehicles we get an opportunity to provide, and I can see from your record, that we completed an "oil & filter" service, MOT and VHC (visual health check) before your collection on the 11/09/2024.

We go to these lengths to ensure that all of our cars are prepared to the best possible standard before leaving with their new owner. However, we can not account for any wear caused over time and use of the vehicle, and of course there is still a possibility for the unforeseen.

We do provide a very generous 6 months warranty to help with any potential issues and also offer every customer the opportunity to purchase a higher / extended level of coverage to aid with any unexpected repairs.

Unfortunately, the first contact we had from you regarding the issue was on the 28/04/2025 (over 7 months from collection), and as unfortunate as the timing of issue was, as you reported the issue outside of the warrantable period, it was not covered, as per the terms and conditions of the agreement.

As you didn't get in touch to discuss these issues inside of your warranty period, we did not get the opportunity to advise or work with you to rectify the issues you are experiencing.

Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch with the team.

Thank you,
The Geoff Cox Team.

STAY CLEAR

STAY CLEAR. I had purchased a Mercedes e220 7 months ago and was over the moon. Only to find out 5 months In the car had faulty engine mounts and the car needs a whole new rebuild camshaft is faulty. Spoke with JORDAN THORNE who told me they would not be doing a damn thing, as the car is out of warranty, so now I have to spend more money taking legal action.

Superb dealer and cars

From entering the showroom for the first time until departing a few weeks later with our new Subaru Forester, the whole experience was painless, caring and friendly.
Jordan Thorne was both knowledgeable about the car and understanding of my wife's needs with regard to her Dementia.
I would definitely recommend this family operated dealer. Its just so much easier than my recent interactions with large multi-site establishments staff.
Well done.

Excellent customer service

Excellent customer service. The whole process of buying my new car from paying an online deposit to collection was seamless! Communication was excellent by phone and email and the sales team were friendly and helpful throughout . I never felt rushed or pressured into making any decisions. This is the third car I have purchased from Geoff Cox and I would highly recommend them.

100% would recommend!!!

Just bought a car (Honda Civic Type R) from Geoff Cox. With it being a small family business, we had the best experience we’ve ever had from a car sales garage. Mike, who looked after us, was brilliant and answered any query we had with ease. There was a little damage in the boot to which they have sorted out at no cost to us.
Fabulous service and would 100% recommend to anyone.

We love our new car!

AVOID AVOID AVOID

I would actively avoid using this company.
I recently paid a £250 deposit on a car, my circumstances changed which left me having to cancel the purchase literally 12 hours later.
I checked the paperwork that I was given and it clearly states that "the deposit less expenses incurred is refundable, in case of cancellation of this order"
I have attempted to chase this four times via emails and phone calls. I eventually received an email stating that because I viewed and test drove the vehicle, my deposit was not being returned, this seems to be a brilliant way ripping people off.
Customer service from this company has been shocking to say the least, with no communication at all once I cancelled the order.
In hindsight, I am thoroughly pleased I walked away as I would have little confidence in getting any vehicle problems resolved with a warranty as it probably isn't worth the paper it is written on.

Hi Steve,

Thank you for your feedback, I am sorry you felt the need to leave a negative review.

After reviewing your purchase, I can see that you visited the showroom, and were firstly, given ample opportunity, to have an uninterrupted look around the Audi A3 followed by an unaccompanied test drive, and finally, asking / discussing any burning questions you had regarding the A3 with the team.

This is obviously how we deal with every customer, but the team have this approach to not pressurize our customers and ensure that you have all of the information to make an informed decision.

At first, after a lengthy conversation with the team, you decided not to proceed as we couldn't reach an agreement that you were happy with. However, after leaving the dealership to review all of the information discussed, you came back and decided to secure the A3 with a deposit.

Any deposit left and in turn order form signed, means that you have agreed to purchase that particular car. Obviously, should circumstance change, you can cancel your purchase but are liable to any loss of profits as per the signed order form:

"I understand that unless the vehicle is to be supplied using a prospective regulated agreement under the consumer rights act then the deposit less expenses is refundable, in case of cancellation of this order, but I may become liable for loss and damage arising."

Now, hypothetically, should the A3 re sell for the same price that you agreed to purchase for, and in turn, we have incurred no losses through market changes, we will return your deposit. However, should the A3 re sell for a figure less than this, we would have incurred a loss from your sale and as per the signed order form, you would be liable for the loss.

Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch on sales@geoffcox.co.uk.

Thank you,
The Geoff Cox team.

I spent 18months+ on researching into which Motorhome would best suit us. I read that Geoff Cox Leisure is a major Adria dealer for the UK and despite not being local to us it still made sense to speak with them for the Customer Service experience. The guys were very helpful and patient with my many questions up to my purchase decision. The handover was excellent and no issue to report. I would highly recommend these guys.

I would not trust this company not a honest company to deal with

I would not trust this company we brought a second hand car from them we had to have the tracking a geometry put right after only driving 2000 miles in the car not to be trusted. Like all car dealer the warranty is only good until you leave the fore court I know they will try to spin this so it looks good on them how dishonest of them.

Absolutely disgusting customer service

Absolutely disgusting customer service, the salesman didn’t know what he was talking about and insisted the car hadn’t been lowered when it very clearly had been, after purchasing the vehicle I am having a few issues with it and am trying to get them resolved through the warranty and they are being very rude and trying to get out of it the best they can, absolutely disgusting.
