Bought a car from HPL Preston to

Bought a car from HPL Preston today and was dealing with Matt, he was absolutely brilliant, extremely Patient explained everything in detail. Nothing was too much trouble for him. I’m the fifth member of my family to buy from HPL and have always had great service. All the staff are always helpful and willing to explain things to you.
Once again, Matt Mankowski was absolutely fantastic🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Nice garage and selection of cars - poor customer service

Nice garage and selection of cars - dissapointingly poor customer service after money has been sent.

Joe was great on the day. After full payment was sent, every email and call was ignored over the next couple of weeks. I was even chasing for confirmation the evening before I was hoping to collect the car after there had been a delay. They'll offer various warranties, I asked for the details to be sent to me for consideration - ignored. I'm still unaware where to find my vehicles service history.

Despite being passed on their 128-point vehicle checks, Aircon wasn't working the first time I tried to use it which was highly frustrating.

Positively, the service centre were good at helping me sort this and I could do it locally instead of driving all the way back. They sent a refund, but again they didn't bother to confirm this had been approved, I can just see I have recieved it.

Poor communication seems to be the theme. They'll ask you to write your review on the day of collection which is obviously when everyone is happy. Go back far enough in the reviews and these issues seem consistent over time. An email or return call isn't a big ask when people are committing to large amounts of money.

All this aside, now the aircon is sorted, I am very happy with the car I got from them. Just dissapointed in the service after.

I honestly cannot recommend HPL enough

I honestly cannot recommend HPL enough, especially Jason for making what had been an incredibly stressful experience finally feel easy and enjoyable.

For the past two weeks, I had been visiting multiple car dealerships trying to find the right car, and the whole process became overwhelming and exhausting. I felt pressured at many places, and instead of listening to what I actually needed, some dealerships just seemed focused on selling any car they could. By the time I came to HPL, I was stressed, confused, and honestly drained from the whole experience.

From the moment I met Jason, everything felt completely different. He was calm, professional, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. What really stood out to me was how clearly and smoothly he explained everything. He took the time to go through all the options in a structured way that made everything easy to understand, and for the first time during my car search, I actually felt comfortable and relaxed instead of stressed.

Jason genuinely listened to my needs, my budget, and what I was looking for in a car. Rather than trying to push me into something unsuitable, he was honest and gave genuine advice about which car would actually work best for me financially and practically. That honesty meant a lot to me because it’s hard to find salespeople who truly put the customer first. He is an excellent communicator and an outstanding salesperson, but more importantly, he’s someone who genuinely cares about helping people make the right decision.

I truly feel lucky that I met Jason that day because he removed a huge weight and stress from my shoulders.

I also want to give a special thank you to Harvey.During handover, I felt emotional and upset about part exchanging my old car, but Harvey made the entire transition feel smooth, reassuring, and positive. I left feeling happy, confident, and completely satisfied with my choice.

The customer service at HPL was exceptional from start to finish, and this has genuinely been the best experience I’ve had at any dealership. Thank you again to Jason and Harvey for your honesty, professionalism, kindness, and support throughout the process. You both made a stressful situation into such a positive experience.

So pleased with how easy the whole process

So pleased with how easy the whole process was made by Adrian’s help. He even went above and beyond by going to another show room to collect the car we was interested in whilst we waited. Would highly recommend a visit and ask for Adrian.

Lovely buying experience- highly recommend HPL

Keiron and Callum (Bromborough Wirral Branch) were both so helpful when I bought my car. They patiently let me test drive two completely different cars in order that I could make an informed decision as to which one was best for me. There was no hard sell on their part which made it a lovely buying experience. I’d definitely recommend HPL and would use them again in the future when purchasing another vehicle.

Outstanding Service

The entire purchase experience and part exchange of our vehicle was seamless throughout, we would most definitely use HPL again. In particular I must mention Nathan Blake, our Sales Executive, he was outstanding, and made what is often a stressful experience an absolute pleasure throughout.
