It was my second time visiting the dealership as the first time was to view the car, and I ended up making the purchase on my second visit. It was a really good experience compared to other dealerships where I felt pressured. This place was much more relaxed, and I appreciated the team's approach. My Kia Ceed has been fantastic for the odd 45-minute trip I tend to do.

We already knew what car we wanted before arriving at the dealership so everything was made really easy for the guys. We had a couple of questions before going ahead with the purchase, to which every question was answered. I think it was Steve who looked after us but don't quote me on it and he couldn't have been any more help to be honest. Everything was pushed through quickly and we got a great car at the end of it.

Charlie was a sweet lad and to be honest he didn't step a foot wrong throughout the sale because nothing comes to mind that I'd change. I'm getting on well with my Fiesta so no complaints.

A family friend told me about Essex Company and it was all good things. I decided to patronise them based on her recommendation, and I must say I had good customer service at Essex Car Company. Charlie attended to me. He was very helpful all through the process and made it a great experience for me.

To be honest I wouldn't change anything about my first time experience at Essex Car Company. Everyone was really friendly, offered a test drive when I was ready and it was a nice relaxing atmosphere. One short test drive later and I was happy to go ahead with it. It's been a great car since.

Steve has been as good as gold. He is always in communication and was on the ball to get any issues resolved as soon as possible. Me and the wife have been getting on very well with the Ford Kuga we purchased from Essex Car Company.

I can't remember the salesman's name with it being a while ago but the service I received was excellent. I knew what I wanted anyway, so there wasn't any pressure from the team, they were just happy for me to look around the car and ask any questions along the way. The BMW has been great since, I did notice that once the roof is down, the window is a bit flimsy but after some research this is a common problem.

When you find a company like Essex Car Company you don't go anywhere else! The service from everyone has been amazing. The young salesman who looked after us was new but did everything you'd want when looking for a new car. All of our questions were answered so we were happy to say yes to the test drive and it was just perfect. We have been out in it a lot more since driving away and it's amazingly economical, which is a lovely surprise because we have always owned cars that have been 40mpg cars. I'll happily come back for my next car.
