Hi JK Traders,

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re very sorry to hear about the circumstances you describe and can appreciate how distressing and concerning it must be to be told that a vehicle has gone missing while it was with a service partner.

We take allegations involving the loss or theft of a customer’s vehicle extremely seriously. We also understand your frustration if you felt that neither the dealership nor the service partner took responsibility or kept you informed about what had happened.

As this involves a third-party service provider and potentially an insurance or police matter, we would not want to speculate publicly about the circumstances or assign responsibility without investigating the facts. We would, however, like to ensure the matter is reviewed by the appropriate team.

Please provide us with the vehicle registration and any relevant reference or case details so we can locate the records and investigate what happened with the service partner.

We’re sorry for the distress and frustration this situation has caused and appreciate you bringing such a serious concern to our attention.

Kindest Regards,
Big Motoring World

Dont even consider this company

Dont even consider this company, the salesman whom I believe was called Carl did his utmost to convince me to trade in my current car. I politely explained that is is a company car and for some explicable reason he still pursed with this in his desperation to make a deal.in spite of the inevitable high pressure over priced
add on sales which i politely declined, i went on to purchase a vehicle from them. This is where the fun begins! The car developed a serious banging noise from the front OS wheel within 2 Days, the response from this company is of course to refer you to the 3 month warranty that is provided with the car by a third party company called Assurant., i am now 2 weeks into a discussion with this company in order to at a minimum investigate the issue and no bookings have been made by them to date. My recommendation to big motoring world is to improve the training of the sales staff as clearly selling your company car as a trade in vehicle could be career limiting! Good luck to you if you engage with this company!

UPDATE after the response from BIG MOTORING WORLD.May i ask what you plan to do about it besides sending and a bluntly pointless response, I am sure the readers and listeners will look forward to the next dismissive response, DATED 24 August 2026.

Hi Chris,

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear that you were unhappy with both the sales process and the issues you encountered shortly after purchasing your vehicle.

We appreciate your frustration regarding the repeated discussions about your company car, particularly after you had explained that it was not yours to trade in. We also understand your concerns about the additional products offered during the sales process and the pressure you felt to purchase them.

More importantly, we’re sorry to hear that the vehicle developed a significant noise from the front wheel within just two days of purchase and that you have subsequently experienced delays while trying to arrange an inspection and establish the cause of the issue.

We understand how frustrating it must be to have spent two weeks trying to get the matter progressed without a booking being made. While third-party warranty arrangements can involve specific processes, we recognise that customers still expect clear communication and appropriate support when a problem arises so soon after purchase.

We’ll share your feedback regarding the sales approach, vehicle preparation and aftersales experience with the relevant management teams. We’re sorry that your experience has fallen short of what you expected and appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention.

Kindest Regards,
Big Motoring World

Incompetent Customer Service

I bought a Ford Puma at the end of May 2026 from the Leeds branch, as a cash buyer. All seemed okay until it was in the garage 8 days later due to the hybrid functions not working. Warranty wouldn’t cover it so after 3 days of constant phone calls and being without a car, Big Motoring World agreed they would pick up the repair cost to replace the 12v battery - this is after they asked me for a photo of the air con not working…

Fast forward to the start of July and the car won’t start. I then get it back in the garage, at Big Motoring Worlds request, and I requested to return the vehicle. I spent a further 3 weeks making multiple phone calls a day until Big Motoring World agreed to accept the vehicle back. I was told that I could take it back to the Sheffield branch - 2 more phone calls later and I was told that they would allow me to return it as a “one off” but they would be taking deductions - after 3 weeks, this was the first time hearing about any such mileage deductions. I returned the vehicle on Saturday 25th July. On the Monday, Verity from Big Motoring World contacted me to say she would be taking 45p a mile deduction from my purchase price for the 2000+ miles I drove - all with the car being faulty. For the next week, Verity actively avoided my 3 phone calls per day and took over 24 hours each time to reply to my emails. She was unable to explain or justify the mileage deductions and avoided answering any of my questions. Verity was completely incompetent in her role and used bullying tactics to force me to agree to a completely unjustifiable mileage deduction, knowing full well they had my cash therefore I could not purchase another vehicle.

I have an ongoing case with the Motoring Ombudsman regarding the disgusting service this company provided, and the lack of explanation for the 45p per mile deductions.

I truly would recommend to avoid purchasing a vehicle from Big Motoring World at all costs.

Hi Emma,

Thank you for taking the time to provide such a detailed account of your experience. We’re very sorry to hear how frustrating this situation has been, particularly given the repeated issues you experienced with the Ford Puma and the amount of time you spent trying to get the matter resolved.

We appreciate how disruptive it must have been to be without your vehicle shortly after purchase, and we’re sorry that you had to make repeated calls and follow up numerous times before a resolution was reached.

We also understand your concerns regarding the mileage deduction and the communication you received after returning the vehicle. We appreciate that you wanted a clear explanation of how this figure had been reached and why it applied, and we’re sorry that you feel your questions were not adequately answered.

As you have confirmed that the matter is now being considered by the Motor Ombudsman, we would not want to comment publicly on the specifics of the dispute or the financial arrangements while the case is ongoing. We will, of course, engage with the appropriate formal process and provide any information required.

We’re sorry that your experience with the Leeds branch and our aftersales team has left you feeling so dissatisfied. Your feedback regarding communication, the handling of the vehicle return and the customer experience has been noted and will be shared with the relevant management team.

Kindest Regards,
Big Motoring World

Purchased an EV car from Big motoring world with 3 months warranty. The warranty is worthless as none of the approved repairers work on EV vehicles . For the last month Big motoring world and the warranty company keep passing us between the both of them with no one accepting ownership of the issue . Dragging the issue out until the 3 months expires. Big motoring world staff Lucy will not pass us on to any manager who can help because they are all having a nice weekend although there customers are left with faulty vehicles . Not the place to buy a reliable car from and expect support if there is a problem.

Absolute disgrace of a motor sales showroom. They wanted name. Email address and phone number before you could even go to look at the cars. There was no way I was going to do that and get phone calls after I had been there, so we were refused entry. Receptionist was rude. I have bought cars from Mercedes and Land Rover and have never had to do this.

Daughter in law purchased a car from them. 20 days later, we find brakes discs are below OEM legal minimum and seized track rod ends. Raised issues with after sales department - still not resolved. Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 raised the issues with trading standards and with the Finance Company and RAC - awaiting results - do not touch Big Motoring World with a bargepole.

Hi Benjamin,

Thank you for sharing your concerns. We’re sorry to hear about the issues your daughter-in-law has experienced with her vehicle and, in particular, the concerns raised regarding the brakes and track rod ends.

We take any issues relating to vehicle safety seriously and appreciate how concerning it must be to have these matters identified so soon after purchase, particularly when you feel they have not yet been resolved by our After Sales Team.

We understand that you have now raised the matter with the relevant external organisations and are awaiting their responses. As the matter is being considered through those channels, we would not want to comment publicly on the specific circumstances or make assumptions about the findings.

We’re sorry that the experience has left you feeling so dissatisfied. Your feedback regarding the aftersales process and the handling of the concerns will be shared with the relevant team.

Kindest Regards,
Big Motoring World

**BEWARE** Read before visiting

**BEWARE**
We arrived at 9.45am on 20th Aug 26 after putting a deposit down on a car. James was our salesperson and everything was good as he showed us the car had a test drive etc. Then we got to the paperwork and the figures and things went downhill. (We had previously visited on 16th Aug26 and a different salesperson had explained that there was a leeway of £2k when P/E your old car which we understood as they cover that as that is how it was explained it after we questioned it. The other thing he told us was you could not have 2 car loans at time in one name which proved to be incorrect)
Back to James when we discussed the P/E the £2k leeway meant that this is added to the new car which inflates the payments to an extra £100 approx. We discussed warranty which was overpriced and we decided we could do without it. At this point James attitude towards us changed and he challenged us regarding the warranty and became pushy asking us to reconsider. We didnt so this was the point were he lost interest in us. He completed the sale and told us the car would be ready for 1.30pm after having a full valet and assured us the stains on the upholstery etc would be removed.
Amy then took over and assisted us completing the finance forms and was very helpful. She issued us with a form and we were instructed to go to the post office to get the V5 as they did not have it. She also assured us on our return to sign in and ask for her on return from the post office. We arrived back from the post office at 2.30pm and signed in and asked for Amy. We waited and could see Amy in her office. I went over to the office and asked to speak with her and was informed they would let her know. 20 mins had gone and still no one attended us I went back to the signing in desk and complained as we were waiting for a £25 refund and did not know if the car was ready .I was then informed Emily in collections would be dealing with us and would be 10 mins. After 10 mins still no one attended us we spoke with a manager who went to talk to Emily and was told we had a 2 minute wait. 5 minutes later Emily saw us and went through the collection process and said the car still was not ready (3.15pm) at 3.25pm we were shown the car and the valet we were promised had only been done to the outer vehicle the inside interior had not been done. They were still the stains on the upholstery amd crumbs etc.
At this point we needed to go as we had urgent things to do, so we mentioned thst we were disgusted with the customer service and would not ever purchase a car from them. To be honest they are not bothered and do not take customer feedback seriously. However, lesson learnt ALWAYS read the reviews before visiting a showroom as people write them to help others.
NOT EVERY ONE IS A KEYBOARD WASTER!!
I REALLY HOPE MY REVIEW HELPS OTHERS AND THE CAR HAS NO PROBLEMS LIKE SOME PEOPLE HAVE EXPERIENCED!!
I WILL UPDATE IF IT DOES.

Found the car I wanted

Found the car I wanted , had a test drive , paid a deposit and went to collect 3 days later . There was a lot of confusion over the valuation, balance and RAC warranty to the point where I nearly asked for my deposit back as I felt under so much pressure , but the manager eventually offered a deal I was happy with. I did have to ask several times for a puncture repair kit as it was missing , there were no mats either .Faiaz in handover was very friendly and helpful, and apologised because it took so long to get the sale sorted , not that it was in any way his fault . He very efficiently sorted paperwork and taxed my car . It had 8 months MOT left on it but not serviced which I hadn’t realised till I arrived home . I queried it and was told that the 200 point check they do takes the place of a service , I checked with Nissan and have booked a service with them because of the manufacturer warranty , just something to be aware of

Hi Lesley,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.

We’re pleased to hear that you found the car you wanted and that Faiaz was friendly, helpful and efficient during the handover, particularly in getting the paperwork completed and the vehicle taxed for you.

That said, we’re sorry to hear about the confusion surrounding the valuation, balance and RAC warranty, and that you felt under pressure during the process. We also apologise that you had to ask several times for the puncture repair kit and that the vehicle was supplied without mats.

We appreciate your comments regarding the servicing of the vehicle and understand why this was something you wanted clarification on, particularly in relation to the manufacturer’s warranty. We’re sorry if this was not made clear to you at the point of purchase.

Your feedback is important to us, and we will ensure your comments are shared with the relevant teams so that we can review the areas you have highlighted and improve the customer experience going forward.

We hope you continue to enjoy your new vehicle, and thank you again for your feedback.

Kindest Regards,

This is the 4th time I've purchased a car through Big Motoring World because it's so easy and straightforward with these guys. They have a huge selection of cars and excellent after sales support. The staff are super helpful and explained everything very well. My salesman on this occasion, Karim, was brilliant. The extended warranty they offer is worth taking a look at.
